I will ask Mr. Campbell to speak on this subject, too. Some see failure in the way of in- | dustrial development. 1 don't agree {with that. In some cases we have been unfortunate, but it has not been a failure by any means. We have some that will be a great asset. .Pre- sent conditions are only temporary and they will hum again.
