Observation-Disclosures effect Of the pres

ago were thought to have passed their
zenith.
Bath, Me-, is cited as an example.
days Of sailing ships Bath was the
country's leading shipbuilding port. 1t
declined steadily after the introduce
ton Of steel as a building material.
Now Bath, building both steel and
wood vessels, is so prosperous that the
housing of the workmen taking jobs
there is pressing problem. The same
is true Of several other North Atlantic
ports, while in other sections ports
are springing up where none existed
before.
Close observers Of the present re-

by which vast new merchant fleet Is

on larger scale that which took
place in the good old days of the

In earlier times, as Mt present every
body in a port touched by the pros

that envelOped such matters more than
hundred years ago. in a score OF
American ports. notably in Salem,

In those days. we are told, rival
merchants sometimes drove the work
Of preparation for voyages night and

This spirit Of commercial adventure

height of their prosperity. In so do
pie of what venturesome people may
gain upon the sea.
Salem at one time stood at the head
Of the cities Of the United States in
the value of its imports.
In 1912 it had 125 ships in the deep
water trade. and of these, IS were
East Indiamen. These vessels brought
home cargoes of fabulous richness
silks. indigo, spices. ivory and other
products of the far East.
There are old people living in Salem
who remember when the city's ancient
warehouses were full of hemp from
Luzon, pepper from Sumatra. coffee
from Arabia. palm oil from the west
coast of Africa, cotton from Bombay.
duck and iron from the Baltic, tallow
from Madagascar, salt from CadiZ.
wine from Portugal nd the MadeiraS.

Mediterranean; teas and silks from
China; rum. sugar and mOlasses from
the West Indies; ivory and gum-copal
from Zanzibar; rubber. hides and wool
from South America, whale oil from the
Arctic and Antarctic, and the sperm
from the South Seas"
Salem ships were pioneers in open
ing new routes Of commerce. Salem
merchants were the first to bring pep
r,,hhar from South
America and coffee from Mocha. The
Salem ship Recovery, Capt. John
Ropes, was the coffee pioneer. and be-
tween the landing of her first cargo OF
the fragrant berry in 179S and 1905,
Salem imported not less than 12,OOO.-
600. pounds of Mocha coffee.
Salem men were perhaps no more
active than other American deep-water
sailors of the period but their records
were better kept.
Examining the causes Of Salem's
great fame won upon the sea, a recent
historian of the merchant marine found
that 1t was mot in her harbOr nor In
her store of shipbuilding timber. &.
It was Salem men. Americans
