They preserve the individualistic attitude of the rural mind and have learned little of collective ac- tion. Labor unions have made small progress ex- cept in a few skilled trades and class consciousness has not developed in the South. The important industries have thus far been few and they have kept rather close to the original raw THE SOUTH OF TODAY 195 material. The South does not spin all the cotton it produces, does not weave all the yarn it spins, and does not manufacture into clothing a...ny con- siderable quantity of the cloth it weaves. The greater part of both yarn and cloth is coarse, though some mills do finer work. Little bleaching or printing, however, is done. The South is a land of curious economic contrasts. It produces sugar but buys confectionery. It produces immense quantities of lumber but works up comparatively little, and this mainly into simple forms. It pro- duces iron and steel in considerable quantities but has few machine shops where really delicate work can be done.
