It ls a good thing for anv American to travel through different parts of the country, but It Is an especially good thing for the American who Is president to do so, so as to realise the fundamental unity of our people. 1 have been particularly struck today In going through North Carolina with the elgns of your great Industrial development. The things that divide one American from his fellow American are very small com pared to the things that unite them.

Industrial pros perity. That which brings It to one part of the country will bring It to all. The way you have been building up the in dustries here in North Carolina, as In Tennessee, la a thing that cannot but re joice the heart of every American who realizes, as we musf If we are wise, that whatever helps one part of the country helps all. If we see North Carolina pros perous, the very fact of that prosperity will tend to make the other sections of the country share more or less In it. I welcome the signs of your prosperity, not merely because every decent American should be glad when any of his fellow Americans are prosperous, but because It means something to all of u. I am glad, Indeed, in passing through your beautiful country or western North Carolina, as I was In panning through east ern Tennessee, to eo how you are taking advantage of your opportunities, for the opportunity can be turned to advantage only when there ta the man of brains, the man of perseverance the man of physical hardihood, who can take advantage of It. I believe In you, t believe in your stock, and therefore t believe that you and those like yoj are going to make of this region cne of the greatest .industrial centers of all the United States.

President Karr having returned yester day from the) west there was a full attend ance at the city council meeting of last evening for th flrst time in many weeks. Mayor Koutsky of South Omaha was a guest ot honor last evening and during the proceedings occupied a eat beside th president. Toward tha close of th meet ing Mr. Koutsky upon invitation, briefly addressed the council, aying that h had noticed aome dlfferencea between what he had seen this evening and tha conditions In his own city.

In that event there would b no money to pay the bills recommended by the finance commit tee and they would have to ttand In abey anoe Mr. Hascall said there was at least some question at to whether th city at torney was correct tn his opinion and he believed the council had a right to set aside money .in the manner that had been dene In this case.
