Sidon. the metropolis of the ancient
Phocnicians. was dominated first by
the Egyptians. but the yoke of the
PharaOhS was thrown off, after which
the AsSyrianS ruled with heavy iFlnn.
Later PhOenicia became a Roman
province. Greek culture had shap-
ing influence. so that the story of 81

anciehts through a period when claS-
sic history was shaping.
SidOn was built on an island, nut
the shifting sands of the Mediterranean
filled in the harbOr and joined the is
land with the mainland, so that the
site of the ancient city is now on a
peninsula. The SidOnians. along with
the Phoenicians In general, were sea
faring race of fishermen. The calling
of the sea was directly responsible
for the rise of the PhOenicians to q
powerful place in the nations, the DOM

gethcr with an enormously stimulated
production of all kinds of supplies, is
a road system which will not only
open up the virgin territories of the
West and South. but which will quick
en- the pulse Of trade in the most
Congested districts of the East,
where the casual observer might be-
lieve that traffic has been fully devcl-
oped. but which close students say
could be geared up TO a remarkable
extent through efficient use of the
highways.
In standing by the creation of a
federal road commission, the officials
of the body expressed their belief in
the feeling, now generally prevalent
throughout the United States among
road men, that the time has come
when transportation on the highways
is deserving of more substantial rec0g-
milton than that accorded ii as a
bureau. which while it has been as
efficient as the limitations of the law
has permitted. would he dignified if
elevated to the rank Of commission,
and would make possible representa-
ton of five different districts of the
United States with their diverse needs.
As for the future of the highways
transport committee, the work already
done by the voluntary organizations
has opened such vast field for re-
search in the economic life Of the
country that it is believed this work
should be continued as a branch un-
der the proposed road commission by
saIared men who should be experts
in the field. and who would give all of
their time 10 close development OF
the problems which the present com
mittee has thus far only had time 10
uncover.
