100000 Once Dwelt There

Once It housed 1000, 900 souls. It is not
without reason that a city grows to that
magnlncence. The region about this
town OF about 14O 900 is largely desert
today, except when the Tigris and
Euphrates are In flood, when the whole
land is, inundated, and the waters press
the dikes and threaten to engulf
city turned into an island. But IT was
not that way in the days of the Caliphs,
when Tiaroun al Raschid reigned in the
eighth century. The desert has crept
down because Of the neglect of the irri.
cation canals; for wherever the least at.
tempt is made to protect and redeem the
soil the yield of crops is marvellous, and
it is easy TO believe that 100000 per.
sons in the city and many millions more
i'm the adjoining districts were fed with
out imports. But what Haroun and the
other caliphs did can be done better
now. So great are the possibilities of
fertility that Abdul Hamld, to increase
his personal wealth in an easy fashion,
acquired large tracts. which are well
farmed and managed. in conspicuous con
trast with the surrounding territory
Bagdad is now as much of a gold mine
as It was in the Middle Ages, waiting for
redevelopment.
Even the decayed city OF today has
had imports worth s1O,O0O,0O0 and ex.
ports worth s4,0OO,000 year. No
wonder the Germans dreamed of maxi
ing 1t their eastern Berlin. Their
scheme OF development included a vast
and entirely new irrigation system on
modern lines for the redemption Of the
whole Babylonian plain. The war inter-
rupted this in its early stages. They were
also intent on systematic sanitation to
replace the present awful methods Of get.
ting water from a river into which sew
age is dumped and which is the cause
of a VerY hiGh mortality

Not Simply a Trade Route

ANOh DAiiPiy lNOulV
Thus it was not simply as a trade
route to India that Bagdad and the re-
gion about It were desired-it was for its
own sake and for a share in the wealth
that would come to the many new mil
lions OF inhabitants that restoration
Middle Europe turned to Bagdad with
so much longing: the Sultan would have
an ample reward for his concessions to
Berlin, and the whole world would profit
perhaps. Will the British be able to do
the work as well?
Most of the work that has kept Bagdad
from loss Of Importance has been due to
the Jewish population. There are $4,000
Jews there, 5000 Christians and about 10O.-
900 Moslems. Only the Jews are pro.
vided with schools and most of the in
dustry and banking is in their hands.
They have from early times played an
important part in Bagdads history and
they seem destined, as tho leading citi.
zens, 10 play an even greater part in it's
renaissance.
The city, placed on the Tigris, where II
most nearly approaches the Euphrates.
commands through its port, Basra, the
Persian Gulf terminal of the sea route
to India, the caravan routes by Tadmor
of the desert to Damascus, by Hamadan
10 Central Persia, by the Euphrates TO
Aleppo, and again by unfinished rail route
by Mosul to Aleppo. (Iosul, about 200
miles to the northwest, is supposed to be
the objective OF the British troops oper.
The Importance of the capture of the
city by the British armed forces cannot
be estimated IN fgures--it is an inestima.
BILE moral blow at German and Turkish
pride and prestige. II is the interruption
of romantic daydream which explains
all the terrible hate of Germany for the
British, for If the British had not come
into the war Berlln-to-Bag gdad would be a
reality today.
There was to be new romance. The
winding and intricate alleys through
which -he adventurous Haroun went upon
his mysterious errands incognito were to
be replaced with wide boulevards; the
towering palaces of old yellow and red
and sparkling in the sum- the clamor of
the bazaars, the pageantry and passion of
luxury and commerce-all was to spring
into life at the touch of German eff.
din were made real Of yore and in the
land that gave Aladdin to the world!

London. The agitation for total
prohibition Is considered to be- doomed
to failure by those who hav. seen the
good results effected by the Central
BOARD Of Liquor Control. 1t is stated
that excessive drinking has ceased to
be a problem 30 far as the army is
concerned and that restriction will do
all that is necessary In other walks
OF life.
The Central Board OF Controls re-
port says that by establishing strict
system for the control and inspection
of public houses 1t Is possible TO re-
duce excessive drinking. In houses in
which liquor can be sold under con-
ditton OF comfort and deccncy and in
which recreation and the sale of food
is provided. customers arc less in
clincd to drink to excess.
