INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation.,of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "tBrget" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received. Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zaab Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 4AI06 $ 75-3045 DAVIS.

I am indebted to my adviser, Professor Henry L. Hunker, and the other members of my reading committee, Professors Howard L. Gauthier and Robert E. Roth, who so ably performed their duty of providing advice and counsel throughout the program. Valuable assistance was received from colleagues Mr. Frederick K. Goodman who assisted in the programming of the model and Dr. Gary S. Stacey who assisted in the initial formulation of the regional analysis, and Mrs. Barbara Coles who aided and abetted In the entire venture by assisting with data reduction and typing the draft manu script. 1 also acknowledge the institutional support received from Battelle's Columbus Laboratories so I could direct my efforts toward the completion of this work. Most of all I acknowledge the constant patience and encourage- ment received from the Family Committee chaired by Beverly Ann, my wife, and staffed by Sandra Lynn and Richard Miles, Jr., my children, who unquestionably have been as much affected by this educational experience as I. i i ill VITA May 25, 1940.
