Notes From Chamber
Of Commerce
The following excerpts are from a
talk made by Warren T. White, gen
eral industrial agent of the Seaboard
Air Line railway, and are presented
here as food for thought for the peo
ple of Camden and Kershaw county.
“Figures oa the growth of indus
try in the South during the past gen
eration are imposing and are highly
significant. During this period we
have seen the value of manufacturers
doubled, tripled and quadrupled until
the products of Industry now exceed
112,000,000,000 a year and the ratio
of manufacturers to agricultural prod
ucts la more than three to.one. « A
significant fact is that during tti« Re
pression years southern industries
fared much better than those in other
aections. We, nevertheless, still have
a long way to go. There are oppor
tunities all about us. The south has
approximately' one-third of th^na-
tion’s population and yet we still
account for only one-fifth of its manu
factures.
“South Carolina occupies a strate
gic position with respect to the mark
ets of the country. We are "virtiUly
overnight from the teeming mlllidns
of the north and east and are like
wise advantageously situated to serve
the rapidly growing markets in the j
South and in Latin American coun
tries.
“May 1 say a word with resptKt to
the erroneous idea, rather widespread,
that the only way to get industrial
development for a conununity is to
go oht and move a plant from some
other location to your own. It is true
that for good economic reasons many
Industries are improperly located
and are, consequently, good prospects
for jelocatlon. It Is a fact, however,
that iu many communities .the greater
part of 'their industrial grWth has
been one from within rather than
from the relocation of plants. A word
as to the industries which we have.
It is just as important to keep those
we have as to get new ones. Plants
may move from a community as well
as to It. Then, too, we are usiilllly
judged by what we are doing rather
than by what w’e say we can do The
old saying is true that nothing suc
ceeds like success.
“The various states are working foij
sound industrial development in the
south.^ Certainly chambers of com
merce in the south have not t)Mn
lacking in assiduous efforts to bring
in new industries. '
“The railroads are likewise con
tributing substantially toward this
effort. Therefore, it behooves u.s to
pull together in this effort for the
common good and unwarranted criti-
-clsm Cannot faH “ to react unfavor
ably against the ^uth and be de
trimental to our common interest. It
la time for the South to get away
from that state of mind which causes
us to seek a ‘whipping boy’ to be used
as an alibi for some of our own fail
ures or shortcomings.
“By and large we find In the Caro-
linas an attitude of sympathy toward
the problems of business and a friend
ly working interest in the welfare of
Industry. Carolinians are a kindly-
disposed people. This is one of the
outstanding reasons for the movement
of industry into our borders. Let’s
foster and nurture this spirit of friend
ship. It will pay big dividends.
“This is goodly land. We can pos
sess it in the real sense of the word,
if we wUl. All nature is ready to
bestow upon mankind the abundant
treasures of its store house. The
only thing which can prevent our en
joying them to the fullest degree will
be a failure on our part to recognize
the opportunities about us and to ex
ercise intelligeQce in managing our
affairs. The fault will not be in our
stars, but in ourselves, if we are un
derlings.”
It is high time that the people of
Camden and Kershaw couhty give not
only thought but action to cooperative
effort to develop local enterprises.

M- L. Duval of Boykin, is hanreflng
his Kobe Leqi>edeza this week and is
getting 500-600 pounds seed per acre.
He has already combined bis Korean
which matnree two to four weeks
ahead of the Kobe and states that his
yield was very good. Mr. Duval’s
Lespedeta follows small grain which
provides an excellent cover crop and
mulch for soil building and at the
present price of seed produces a rela
tively high income per acre.
