The greatest work of the Mound
Builders, the group of mounds at
Cahokia, near St. Louis, will be sacri-
feed to factories, it is said, because
the owner of the ground has been un-
able to interest congress or the leglS-
latures of Illinois and Missouri in
their preservation. The mounds are
not only the greatest works of their
builders but, in the words of Gerard
Fowke, of the Missouri Historical
Society, are the most stupendous
piles of earth ever erected by human
hands solely as monument or temple
site" The great Monks Mound"
is 1880 feet long, or 280 feet longer
than the great pyramid in Egypt.
Its base covers nearly sixteen acres.
There are in all IS mounds.-Ex.

The old stone building of the Shin
bashi station, which is familiar to all
the foreign residents who came to
Japan before the completion of the
Toxic station, is to be moved to the
compound of the Meiji Shrine, which
is in course of construction at Yoyogi.
This building was the first railway
station built in Japan and it is at the
same time one of the oldest buildings
of foreign style in the capital. The
station was constructed when Japan's
first railroad was opened between
Yokohama and Toxic in 1872.-Ex.

destroying with one hand which she
builds with the other, commerce will
work with both hands for the per-
petual enlargement of the great cities
of the world.
On the other hand transportation
has reduced the world to neighbor-
hood and the necessities of life can be
supplied from some nation in the gi-
gantic neighborhood. There is no
country on earth where its people
starve because there is no food. They
starve because they have nothing to
buy food with.
In recent press dispatch, it was
stated that the American foreign trade
in 1920 was the largest in the coun-
try's history, totaling $l3,507,0 ,000,-
900. Exports were valued at $8,-
228,000,000 and the imports were
valued at $5,270,000,000. This gives
us some idea of the magnitude of the
American commerce, our production,
and industries.
Our wheat, corn, and cotton crops
exceeds that of any other country,
our country raises as many hogs as
all the rest of the world combined,
and about one-third of the timber
used in the world is cut in the United
States. We also lead the world in
the extent and variety of its manu-
factures, especially in lumber, flour,
and grist-mill products, clothing, iron.
and steel, and cotton and woolen
fabrics. In our factories and work
shops is made almost every kind of
article used by man. Our domestic
commerce is far greater than our
foreign trade. This condition is due
because of the great diversity of the
products of the various sections of
our country. Therefore the rapid
development of the United States has
caused constantly increasing demand
for our products by foreign nations.
And as to transportation by air,
would not attempt to even contem-
plate the subject, because there is no
person on earth who knows the great
possibilities that lie in future trans
portation that is to be developed in
our air service. We may we'll con-
slider our air service only an infant
and still in its gocart. In the near
future our air service may surpass all
other means of transportation not
only by its great speed but also by its
enormous carrying capacity.

THE PASSING OF THE
ELEPHANT
Selected

He last elephant in Zululand
was recently killed. The ele-
plants of southern Rhodesia
have been exterminated. In the
eastern Transvaal, near Portuguese
territory, few survivors of small
troop occasionally are seen, but they
are being attacked from both sides
and are ,on the verge of extinc-
ton. 1t is impossible that there may
be few left in Knysna Forest, Cape
Colony, but the game-warden is
doughtful. And now special cores
pondent of the London Times writes
that the Provincial Council of the
Cape of Good Hope has passed a
decree authorizing the destruction of
the herd of elephants in the Addo
Bush Forest Reserve. Says writer
in Science (New York;.
"The Aldo Bush, near Port Eliza
beth, until recently was waterless
scrub of little value. In its center an
area of approximately 5000 acres has
long been a reserve for the elephants.
The land is not fenced off, and farms,
at first of small value, but now being
developed by irrigation works from
Sundays River, surround it. The
herd numbers between 100 and 200
individuals, the only surviving exam
pies OF. distinct variety character
lied by "a strongly arched forehead,
enormous ears, roughly square out
line, short forelegs and very hairy
body. The proposed action is not
case of wanton destruction. The
Provincial Council has given long
consideration to the matter, and has
passed the decree only after careful
investigation by a special committee
whose members were fully alive to
the geological calamity that their
recommendation involved. The ele-
plants sally out of their reserve in
quest of food and water. They break
down fences, stampede cattle, destroy
crops, and freighten human beings.
They assume that the irrigation
canals are intended for their benefit,
and in taking their baths they destroy
the banks and dams. The committee
reported that the elephants could be
confined only by the erection of a
structure sufficiently strong to con-
tain elephants would have cost at
least 100000. 1t would have been
necessary to provide water supply,
and it is more than doubtful if the
area enclosed would have provided
natural food in sufficient quantities"

THE DEVELOPMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION
By Mr.. 1L. ".
PARTER by primitive man, was
the preliminary to future de-

PARTER by primitive man, was
the preliminary to future de-
mand for medium of exchange,
and the latter was but the forerunner
of great expansion in developing
our transportation, which is respon-
sible for the tremendous growth and
development of our business enter
prises of today. This barter or ex-
change of products was the beginning
of commerce. The need of money,
or other articles having comparative
ly fixed value to give in exchange for
goods, was soon felt. Tobacco and
fprs were once used as money here in
America and gold, silver, and paper
money gradually came into use.
The early traders, with OK teams as
their only means of transportation,
had many obstacles to overcome.
Roads were in bad shape, railroads
few and far between, train service
could not be depended upon, ships had
to depend upon the wind and weather,
and many were wrecked enroute.
Therefore the means of transporta-
tion in the early days was inadequate
either by road, rail or boat. And as
the population of the United States
increased, likewise did our industries,
commerce, and transportation increase
which demanded more ships so as to
enable us to meet the demand for our
products by foreign nations.
According to statistics, in the year
of 1900 the merchant marine of the
United States had a tonnage of approx
imately 100000 tons, and in 1920,
in spite of the oppression influence of
the embargo act, had increased its tom
age to about 1,250,000 tons, the most
Of which was in foreign trade, COM
pared with the tonnage for the entire
British Empire of approximately
100000 tons. In the decade of
1855-1865, Great Britain had
marine tonnage surprising the Ameri-
can tonnage nine to one. And the
United States was scarcely reconized
as mercantile marine power. 1t
should also be remembered that the
greater part of our tonnage consisted
of sailing ships. In the year of 1861
our merchant marine reached the
enormous figure of 5,500,000 tons.
The Civil war almost annilated it,
confederate cruisers captured and
burnt most of what was not trans
ferred to foreign flags. 1t has taken
just forty-one years to reach the 1861
mark again, this includes every ship
known, sailing and steam. But there
has been profound change in the So
called mere material development in
the American merchant marine. The
development of the United States
merchant marine began in the nine
teenth century, primarily by the inn
provement of ship locomotion, and
secondarily by improvement of ocean
routes and terminus of commerce.
The introduction of steam wrought
the greatest change, as also the change
from wood to iron, making possible
larger and stronger ships with better
and cheaper service, from the paddle

to turn screws, and from the single
to the compound engines.
From 1900 to 1920, was world
period of extraordinary ship building
in which our yards have shared their
average annual output, being some
100000 gross tons. In the year of
l9O2-03 there were about ninetysteam-
ships under construction, twenty or
more which had a tonnage of more
than 5000 gross tons each, including
two 600 foot ships for the transat-
lantic trade, these were two immence
ships of 10000 tons each, for the
Great Northern Steamship Co. And
during the last few years there has
been not few of the gigantic liners
with a tonnage of more than 10000
gross tons, and | sincerely believe that
the American people considers that
the present development of our marine
transportation is only in its infancy.
Not only does our gigantic ships
act as mighty shuttle on all seas,
but our transcontinental railway
trains are constantly winding their
way to and from ocean to ocean, to
supply the increasing demand for our
products by foreign nations. Amer
lean exports, especially food products
and raw materials, afe of so vital i'm
portance to Europe that a marked
decrease in them would produce much
disturbance and distress in many of
the thickly populated manufacturing
districts of that continent. Only
few years ago, supplies for great city
such as we have today, would of been
impossible for single state to fur
nish, as food, water and building
materials could be procured only with
great labor and expense. But there
has been great change wrought in
the last few years. Now the railways
and the triple-expansion marine en-
gine has made it possible to feed any
number of millions gathered at one
point, and to transport building ma
terial and food, thousands of miles,
while scientific engineering supplies
water to large populations far re-
moved from rivers and lakes and
makes possibl city in desert.
Commerce, like the. social instinct,
has been a permanent factor in the
growth of cities, but it is a thousand
fold greater now than was in the
early days. Its influence as a city
builder has been as much enhanced
by the conditions of the new civiliza-
ton as has that of the social instinct.
When we contrast caravan OF
camels with transcontinental freight
train of 100 cars, and little coasting
ship with a transatlantic liner, we
have basis for comparing the cities
produced by ancient commerce with
those which are being created by
modern commerce. furthermore, in
the past, commerce unmade as many
cities as it made. The discovery of
unknown countries, and the opening
of new routes of travel destroyed
commercial supremacy as often as
they created it. But there are no
more unknown countries to be dis
covered, and since the cutting of the
Isthmius canal there will be no more
geographical changes of the first mag
nitude. The great world routes of
travel and transportation is now per-
manently established, and instead of
