It seems unlikely that an area such as this, with un
developed resources all about us in every dirction can’t
do something constructive in the field of industry pro
motion. However it takes something more than wishful
thinking—and natural resources. It takes confidence in
a great future—it takes a lot o f guts, and foresight, but
mainly it takes a lot of plain hard work. This meeting
is the start of such a program Next 'Tuesday night we
