our Dig
Piers Planned
The first unit terminal would have
tour piers and five berths, the piers
to be 1000 feet long and 325 feet wide
with extra wide slips This would
give 1890 lineal feet of berth space
These slips would be dredged to q
mean depth of thirty feet and would
connect with harbor basin dredged
to the same depth. These ships would
not be intended at first for the biggest
liners, the 40-foot basin along the
breakwater pier being designed to ae-
commodate these, but the 3O-foot
basins could later on be deepened if
found desirable. The total area to
be dredged for the first unit would
be trifle over 404 acres and the total
berth space would be 26,1OO lineal
feet.
The terminal yard area, about nine
ty-five acres, would be in a free port.
Besides complete track system, the
yards would include six-story bonded
warehouses, sixstory industrial build
irgs, two-story freight warehouses and
one-story warehouses. The industrial
buildings would have a total floor area
of 100000 square feet and the ware
houses a capacity of 2,175,00O tons of
merchandise. Other adjuncts would be
a 0O,OOO-bushel grain elevator. a
hotel, an administration building and
passenger ferry house
On the breakwater quay, in addition
to four one-story warehouses, there
would be outdoor storage space fo.
30,000,000 feet of lumber, 100000 tons
of ore and 100000 tons of coal. The
most efficient mechanical devices would
be installed for handling all kinds of
freight.
The engineers lay much stress on the
free port plan, which simply means
that portion of the terminal would
be reserved as a duty-free district.
where imported materials could be
stored and manufactured for export.
Hamburg's free port contributed i'm
mensely to the city's upbuilding, and
such port in New York would tend to
make, the city the centre of a great
additional foreign trade. Elaborate
plans have been provided for such q
port and call for number of industr;-
al buildings and bonded warehouses
The bulkhead sea walls, pier retain
ing walls on the long quay, the ends
of the docks and the various oravs
are to be of substantial concrete con-
struction, capable of being filled with
sand pumped from the docks and chan
nels of the terminal.
The terminal railway would crovs
the island in a general northwest di-
rection and would have very easy
gradients. It's total length would he
about ten miles to the territory trav-
efsed by numerous important trunk
lines IN New Jersey 1t is so located
as to avoid for the most part the built
up portions of the island.
The total cost of the first unit in
cluding the connecting railway, is esti-
mated at $l37,o00,o00, at present prices.
of which about $1s,ooo,Ooo is set aside
for the free port. The dredging would
cost S6.000,0o0, the piers, docks and
superstructures s2a,OOO,0oO, the termi-
nal yards, equipment and structures

Could Handle
100000 Tons

IN return for this outlay New York
would nave a modern railway and ma
rlne terminal capable of handling at
least 100000 tons of FREIGHT an
nually, which is considerably more
than half the total ocean movement of
foreign cargo through New York in
1916.
AS for the future, by extending the
terminal to and around Great Kill.
1orty-flve additional piers could be
erected along front of about four
miles with an additional freight hand
ling capacity of 4S.5Oo,ooo tons ner
annum SO that the entire DEVELOPMENT
would give capacity of about e3 non
ooo tons, or more than twice the whole
present foreign business of the barhor
1t Is not intended that even all xf
the hrst units should be constructed AT
once' but it is held to be important
'nat the plan should be adopted at the
beginning and realized as rapidly as
heeo may be and funds are provided
beginning first of all with the breaL
water quay, the related channel md
the connecting railroad.
After completion of these items +ha
various sections of terminal wards
warehouses, industrial building and
other related parts of the termina !
could be added unit by unit, but all
ways IN accordance with the previous
ly perfected plans. By this means only
small portion Of the total money esti-
mate for the entire first unit terminal
would be required at the outset. thus
greatly reducing the burden of fnane-
ing the undertaking.
The report prepared by the engineers
IS so elaborate that it is impossible to
do 1t justice in this brief review. but
1t should be noted that it contains mans
and plans, exhaustive studies, statis-
tical tables and charts relating to the
growth of the Port Of New York and
covers in elaborate detail all the data
bearing on the question of port ex-
tension and Improvement. 1t not only
demonstrates conclusively that the east
shore of Staten Island is the only place
Tor great new deep water marine
terminal, but also shows that such a
terminal is an immediate necessity.

the very time that Mr.. Meigs. Mr. Fs.r'
ing and Mr.. Carroll were comnlat;r, :,
their studies of this problem. one of

, highly economical trade processes that
will be forced upon a debt-encum-
bered world. The ports that are pre-
pared to handle all the export freigh,
that comes to them in the most efficient
manner between rail to ship will have
practical advantages that will go far
to offset New York's prestige.
Because New York cannot now han
die the business the Shipping Board
Is setting out deliberately to develop
other ports. In these ways a ten
dency may be developed which in time
may seriously threaten New York's
supremacy. Already the ocean tonnage
handled by other ports grows more
rapidly than it does in New York. In
the past the handicaps of the devel-
oped portions of New York's harbor
have not greatly impeded the growth of
the clty's commerce, but the time is
near at hand when the currents of trade
may be diverted by difference of
few cents ton in the cost of handling
goods, and certainly by tedious DELAYS.
Shipping masters will naturally favor
docking their vessels where cargoes
may be unloaded and loaded with the
greatest dispatch as we'll as with the
least expense.

capacity of the port and improve it's
facilities has long been up for con-
sideration, and much has been accom-
plished, from time to time, within the
limits of the utilized harbor on Man
haitian, in Brooklyn and on the Jersey
side But all that has been done has
been insufficient, and the limits Of de-
velopment, even in inferior locations
have about been reached. Engineers
and thoughtful citizens who have given
their attention to these matters have
rather generally come to the conclu-
sion that the great export terminals
OF the future must be on the east side
of Staten Island
among those who have given pro-
found and serious study to this ques-
tion are Lindon w. Bates and Bra
dish j. Carroll. Mr.. Bates's views re-
garding Staten Island development are
we'll known. Mr.. Carroll has also helped
to take the topic out of the realm of
conjecture and speculation by causing
an elaborate engineering study to be
made of the general problem and the
Staten Island solution. At his instance
John Meigs, consulting engineer, and
Frederick G. Fearing, Of Kelly, Cooke
& Co., consulting engineers. of Phila-
de!phia, have together gone deeply
into the whole matter and have pre-
pared plan and estimate for the de-
velopment Of a great marine terminal
on Staten Island.
The study and the. plan were sub
mitted to the committee on the harbor'
and shipping Of the New York Cham
Der OF Commerce. and are now before
the Interstate New York and New Jer-
sey Commission, which is considering

Huns Change Names
Of Streets in Towns
Of Northern France

With the British American Forces
in France, Nov. 22.-That Germany
expected to occupy for long time,
and perhaps permanently, the north
ern portion Of France, is shown by
the fact that the Hun military au-
thorities changed the names Of all
the important streets in the larger,
towns which fell into their hands.
There is scarcely a village where
distinctly German designation was
not given to road or street.
Such names as Kaiser Wilhelm
Strasse," Bismarck, Strasse," "Von
Hindenburg Strasse," took the
places Of the French names. When
the American troops operating with
the British entered these towns they
took particular delight in destroy
ing these signs and replacing the
original French markings.
The Germans told the French in
habitants Of these towns that in
future France would be divided into
two parts-North France. which
would belong to Germany. and
South France, which the French
would be permitted to keep. They
put the inhabitants under severe dis.
cipline and required them to stand
1t attention and salute whenever
one Of their officers addressed them
or passed them on the street.
When the German officers entered
any Of the homes. the whole family
was required to stand at attention
until they left. Breaches of this
order were, severely punished. The
boches had the population thorough
ly cowed and permitted them only
the most ordinary privileges.
When the AmericansNand British
came in, the people wept with joy

pfoeeors
