1939181fdRichmond VA: The Dietz Press 1939. First Edition. Octavo red cloth hardcover gilt letters xiv 259 pp. Very Good with sunned spine and lightly rubbed edges. From Foreword: Foreign travelers usually are surprised and Northern guests frequently are concerned to find that the Confederate tradition persists in the South. It seems incredible to them that the old families of the South still speak of the War Between the States simply as “the War†that the graves of those who fell in that conflict still are decorated and that Confederate heroes are first in the affection of millions of people. Northerners soon discover how baseless are fears behind this attachment to the Southern cause there lurk “disaffection treason and rebellion;†observant men from lands that suffered the ravages of the World War perceive sympathetically the relationship between tender memory and dark disaster. Southerners themselves accept the Confederate tradition so much as a part of their uprearing that they rarely ask themselves why it remains so much in their thought in their literature in their politics and in their outlook on life. Some day I hope a competent student will make the requisite long research and will analyze all the influences that have made this tradition as virile as precious. The inquiry will disclose among other things an instinctive choice of values a proud association of the individual with a great cause and quite apart from politics and questions of racial unity an amazing example of the manner in which women influence thought.

Octavo turqoise cloth hardcover gilt letters 159 pp. Fine in a Very Good dust jacket with light edgewear. From dust jacket: The Way It Happened written by one of the elder statesmen of the savings and loan business in the United States is a fascinating view of this important business from its early days through its growth to its currently dynamic position in the economy of contemporary America. Oscar R. Kreutz has written The Way It Happned from his personal experience not merely from objective observation. He began his study of the savings and loan business in late 1922 and became actively involved in early 1923. When Mr. Kreutz writes about such subjects as the slow-moving days o the ‘20s the Great Depression constituionality of Federal chartering the Los Angeles Bank and Long Beach Federal affair he knows whereof he speaks because he was there. When Mr. Kreutz writes about management methods that produce sound growth his record speaks for his qualifications. He organized an association when he was onlyu 25 years old. He was a founding director of a Federal Home Loan Bank in 1932 and later senoir vice president of another. He held key positions with the Federal Home Loan Bank Board in Washington for ten years. Currently Mr. Kreutz is chairman of the board of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of St. Petersburg Florida which grew more than $600 million after he joined it in 1953.
