The 25th of July is dedicated to St.
James the Great, the patron saint of
Spain. At the battle Of ClavijO, fought
in Sal, between Ramiro, king of
Leon, and the Moors, it is stated that
when the day was going hard against
the Christians St. James appeared on
the field in his own proper person,
armed with a sword of dazzling Splen-

The great Spanish order of knight

of Compostella in Galicia became the
chief seat of the order of st. James

A NEW AMERICAN 4
BY HERBERT QUICK.

One OF the most interesting. appeal
ing, astonishing and revolutionary
schemes ever laid before the world is
back OF a bill introduced in the lower
house OF congress by Rep. Calder OF
New York.
IL is nothing less than a project
which has for its object the changing
OF the climates Of Greenland. Ice
land. Great Britain and Ireland. Nor
way, Sweden and northwestern Rus
STA. Finland. I.apland and. in fact. a
great part Of Europe.
The smile naturally follows the
suggestion. Man cannot change eli

mates. At least he never has. And
TO change all the climates Of the
north Atlantic shores-the thing is
absurd. II transCends the power of
puny man. 1t might be within the
power OF race Of genii-but not for
the genus homoi
And yet Col. George GOethals.
builder Of the Panama canal says
that the subject warrants investiga-
tiOn," and that he hopes the real
author of the scheme, Carol l..
Riker Of Brooklyn, will be successful
in securing the spassage of the bill"
Therefore, the matter is worth
thinking about.
Everybody knows about the gulf
stream and its effects on the climate
of western Europe. 1t is the might
lest river in the world-but il flows
through the ocean and not across the
land. England is as far north as
Labrador-but England is a great
paradise most OF the year. while
Labrador is a frozen desert
The Gulf stream is the reason--it is
the greatest hOt-water radiator in the
universe. 1t flows out of the Gulf of
Mexico. carrying the waters warmed
by the heat Of the equatorial sun and
sets northeast parallel with the At
lantic coast of this country and
strikes Newfoundland.
There II is shattered and stunned
by the land and the shadows called
the Grand bands. Ii meets the cold
waters coming down between Green
land and Labrador and mixes with
them in these shadows where the
cold water has 20 come 20 the surface
10 get oyer the ridge of sand, instead
Of flowing deep down as ii does where
1t has the chance.
These are the difficulties met by
the gulf stream. But, IN spite of
them, il spreads out like a great fan
and warns all western Europe.
Mr. Riker proposes to make the
drifting sand build "A jetty 200 miles
long and reaching from NewfOund-
land eastward to the Grand banks.
This jetty is intended TO cut off the
cold waters in their journey south
ward. bringing such icebergs as that
which sank the Titanic-and to make
they flow farther east, where the
ocean is deeper. There they Will creep
along the bottom OF the sea and not
interfere with the gulf stream.
A branch Of the gulf stream will
then flow along the west coast of
Greenland-so Mr.. Riker says-and
many times as much warm water will
wash the shores of Iceland and the
nations Of Europe. In view of the
fact that the Gulf stream carries 80
billion cubic yards Of water per hour
past Cape Florida. with a tempera-

ture OF IS degrees and that this water
IN cooling to 35 degrees would be
able TO melt IS hundred square miles
OF zee, 10 feet thick per hour, il is
perfectly certain that II is not doing
half its possible work in making Ire
land the Emerald isle and causing
the present difference between the
weather OF sunny Italy and stormy
Cape COd-great as these differences
are
Conceding the possibility Of OBJ
structing the drift of sand on the sea
bottom and making IL build it's own
jetty-which AIr. Riker contends for
and allowing the effects Of IL on the
polar current and the gulf stream-as
seem reasonable; and we have before
as the biggest problem In terrestrial
change ever offered for consideration.
Do We dare 10 change the climates as
proposed?
Iceland would welcome the change
She has no vested interests in frigid-
ity But what would Ireland say :?
Does she care for a warmer climate
Would the shamrock grow as green
as now
Would Scotland trade her dour
weather for that of northern France 4?
What would become OF the poetry
OF British weather? How would the
readers Of Dickens interpret his fogs
in which CATER Hexham took his toll
OF the floating bodies on the Thames
and the snOwstOrms that whitened
Mr.. Pegotty's coat?
But Norway and Sweden may be
counted upon as favoring the New
foundland jetty. They would gain by
it. even though the ice trade with
England were imperilled. And Rus
sia--well, when one considers that
Russia's greatest need is an ice-free
port, that Archangel on the White
sea is a fine harbOr which would be
brought into the circle Of ice-free
ports by Mr.. Riker's jetty-if the
scheme wOrks-one may easily see
what a huge international affair this
Misunderstanding house bill No. 28239
may become.
The bill, however, only provides for
a commission TO study the plans for
the jetty and compute it's probable eff
fects; and the eminent men who ask
for the passage of the bill have there
by only evinced an interest in the
matter. They do not accept all Mr.
Rikers views.
But there is no doubt that the
minds of many sane and well-infOrm-
ed people are a good deal impressed
by Mr.. Riker and his claims.

Reb Russell was dropped into his
usual hard spot yesterday, getting
beat for the same old reason-failure
Of the White Sox to make any runs
while he is pitching.
Reb was hit harder than in any
game this year, but at that managed
to hold the Yanks to two runs be-
cause of his strength in the pinches
and fine defensive work by his team
mates.
Three hits were all the Sox could
get of the combined pitching Of War
hop and Mcconnell. Two of the
blows were rank scratches, the only
clean one being a double by Russell.
One Sox batter reached third base,
from whence he scored on a sacri-
fee fly to Ray Schalk.
For the Sox to ease off in their
hitting when Russell is pitching is
becoming a habit and a mighty UNI
pleasant one to the big sOuthpaW.

TRAVELLED NILES
Minus RUDDER

Steaming $50 miles without rud-
der, the details of a mishap> to the
Alaska Steamship Company's big
ffeighter Seward, which put into Ma
zatlan, Mexico, last January, have
been received with. the arrival of the
transport Sherman.
Under charter to the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, the Seward was
bound from San Francisco for Pana-
ma with a cargo of general merchan-
disc. While 100 miles south of Cape
st. Lucas, in heavy gale, the vessel
lost her rudder and was left at the
mercy of enormous seas for many
hours. Captain Johnston tried jury
rudders and jury rigs of all kinds and
finally was able to bring the vessel
notified the charterers of the vessel
and her owners of his plight.
The Stewards master, in the report
Just received, says that he was nine
days and nights in making $50 miles,
and reached port only after experience
ing many difficulties. The rudder was
entirely gone and he was unable to
steer anything like a direct course.
For many hours the Seward described
a circle, but Captain Johnston finally
managed to make some Roadway, and
as he described it "zigZagged his way
into Mazatlan."
Another difficulty that confronted
Captain Johnston was the fact that
there is no drydock at Mazatlan, and
no facilities for making the extensive
repairs needed to the Seward. The
nearest drydock and repair shops are
at Salina Cruz, more than 500 miles
south of Mazatlan, and to this port the
Seward must be sent in tow OF a tug
or some other vessel. The officials of
the company said that this would be
done, as there is no other way Of get
ting the rudderless Seward to Salina
Cruz.
