manufacturers, of universities, of real

tier" growth, similar to that which
occurred in California after the war. It
might last for 20 years. It is a growth that
is establishing Texas as a power both

when Texas’s modern factories take on the
appearance, from a viewpoint 256 years
hence, of the heavy industry in today’s
Midwest, old-fashioned and inefficient.
Meanwhile, a generation of growth and
opportunity lies ahead. Or so Texans
believe. And this time the boasters and the
boosters are not wrong.
