present state of unexampled wealth.
and luxury and suffering and war
that ancient land has brooded in 81
Ience and solitude, awaiting the re-
turn of the race to the place OF lts
nativity.
Prize That Is Being Sought.
That time has now come. Meso-
potamia is the most coveted spot on
the globe today. Now almost des-
ert in olden times it was the granary
of the world-wheat was first cult
waited by man there-and it may be
made so again. The Babylonians, by
stupendous systems of canals, con-
trolled the yearly floods of the two
great rivers and made the great al
luvial plain as fertile as the basin OF
the Nile. The engineers who irrigat-
ed Egypt have reported that by sim
liar means Mesopotamia could be
made to supply grain and cotton for
half a continent.
But, as everybody knows, the chief
prize for which the nations are now
striving is possession of the great
highway from Constantinople to the
east-the line of the Pan-German
railroad planned to link Berlin with
the Persian gulf.
