The foundation of this Nation has. since its founding. been rooted in rural areas and small towns. Yet. we persist in concentrating almost all our efforts on the forest of problems caused by overexpansion of our major cities and metropolitan areas. It seems. that too many of us are ignoring the truth that many members of the struggling. undereducated. unskilled. or semiskilled masses which cause us so much concern in the cities are refugees from rural areas and small towns. They have been forced to come to the cities in search of a new beginning. The move has been made necessary by the advance of agricultural technology which has eliminated many of their jobs and the inability of their home areas to develop new job opportunities for them.
