WASHINGTON, D. G., Nov. IA

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. IA
New York City has lost the suprem-
acy as the greatest grain exporting
center of North America and the world
and must now take second place The
city of Montreal has stepped into first
place and the present trend in the
exporting business indicates that she
will hold it.
This may be a matter of surprise
to most of the people of this country
who have grown accustomed to the
idea that the United States has the
biggest and the most and the best
of everything but it is none the less
true. New York interests realize It
and are beginning to study ways and
means of recovering the lost honor.
Ten years ago New York exported
100000 bushels of grain to Mon
treats 38,000,000. In 1914 the Canadi-
an city passed New York for the first
time with IA 100000 to 61,000,000, but
New York took a great jump to the
front the following year 100000
while Montreal dropped off to 43,000,-
900. In 1918 New York attained her
maximum in grain exports with total
of 154,000,000 bushels; Montreal dill
20 millions that year. The rivals main
tanned the same relative position the
next. year, but then. Montreal began to
forge ahead until last year she handled
a total of 10000, 900 bushels, while
New York exported only 68,000000.
The figures for 1922 are expected to
show an even greater predominance N
favor of Montreal.
Experts say that this seizure of SUI
premacy in grain was not the result o.
accident or of causes that could not
have been corrected. Congestion cn
the railroads leading to New York, OF
within the limits of the port, together
with the excellent facilities offered al
Montreal resulted in the phenomenal
growth of the Canadian city. Some oil
these factors. are temporary, but it is
feared that others of them may be per
manent.
In any event it is certain that con
ditions with respect to railroad trans
portation have been worse this veal
| than they were last, which will plac:
New York at further disadvantage.
Railway cars and locomotives hav:
been in unusually bad condition as {
result of the shopman's strike. Ac
cordingly the railroads have not beer
able to cope with the demands incident
| to a normal revival in business, tbs
usual fall increase in traffic and tn,

| crops on record. When the mining @
coal was resumed that product wai
given priority over grains in shipping
and undoubtedly millions of bushel
have been diverted to Montreal tina
ordinarily would have gone through
| the port of New York.

Use Barge Canal.

use of the state barge canal Thi

ter of the Whole World.

grain traffic through the port of New
York, but as yet the expectations of its
advocates have not been realized.
With a capacity of 100000 to 90
100000 tons yearly the trade on the
canal is but fraction of that volume.
Also, as result of difficulties in rail
transportation rates on canal barges
have been advanced until they are act-
ually higher than rail rates, whereas,
they should be considerably lower.
The commercial victory which MOE
treal has won in grain exportating Is
all the more significant by reason OF
the fact that her port is closed by ice
for at least four months of every year.
New York in the other hand has all
the advantage of a full twelve-month
season. AS a still further handicap
insurance rates up the st. Lawrence
are higher, but Montreal is winning
the race nevertheless.
AS matter of fact, the Canadian city
is making such strides that she now
ranks next to New York in volume
and value of general exports and leads
Boston, Philadelphia, Norfolk, New
Orleans, San Francisco and Seattle
Thus it is apparent that New York has
real task to accomplish if she is not
to lose supremacy in other phases Of
trade as well as in grain. AS YET
Montreal does not rival New York in
size, financial power, or industrial &C
tivity, but commercial leaders of Man

leader, can teach him more in few days than
he can learn here in four months.

Lenfn Wants to Visit Us

Never in so short a span of time have so
many European notables visited this country as
in the last few years. Soldiers and statesmen
have protested an absorbing interest in seeing
the United States and. studying our people at
close range Back of some of the visits was a
desire to create favorable sentiment in behalf
of the nation that claims the parentage of the
visitor. Others came merely to inform them
selves Of our government and its people.
Now comes the announcement that Lenin, of
soviet Russian notoriety, has keen desire to
see Us and study our institutions. Lenin, to be
consistent with his doctrines, must detest and
hate US as one of the leading captalistic nations
of the world, but seemingly this is no deterrent
in his secret ambition to study our methods and
to learn our secret of strength
Perhaps he is curious to find out wherein
lies the power that enabled us to grow from a
few struggling colonies on the Atlantic seaboard
to nation that spreads from ocean to ocean
that stimulated our population to settle the agri

clined to agree with this pessimistie
view of the Gothamites, and no one
seems to know just what can be done
about It
In view OF the rivalry between New
York and Montreal and the fact that
they are the leading ports of North
America a comparison Of their ship
ping facilities and business status in
general is interesting. The depth OF
channels and harbor at New York
averages from 80 to 35 feet as against
an average of 20 to 35 feet at Mon
treal New York has $40 ship berths,
whereas Montreal has but 100 In the
last % years New York has expended
sos, 100000 for dock construction, as
compared with $31,000,000 for the en-
tire port of Montreal.
New York has manufacturing plants
to the number of $4,000, with a CAPT.
talization of more than SO 900, 900, 900
and an annual out put valued well in
excess CT $4,000, 100000 Manufactur.
ing plants at Montreal number but
half a billion and an annual produces
only little more than one-tenth the
value of New York's. Foreign trade
through the port of New York last
year amounted to $2,682,000,000 az
against $700,000,000 for the port Of
Montreal
Port facilities at Montreal include
two large, modern, fireproof elevators
with conveyor system to is steam
ship berths at which 9 vessels can be
loaded with grain simultaneously; %
permanent fireproof sheds; So miles OF
harbor railway terminals; construct
ion and repair plants; about 200 acres
of land, all reclaimed, in the most valu
able part of the city, and total wharf
age at the close of last year of 8.19
miles. A 35 foot channel between Mon
treal and the ocean is now being
dredged by the government, and it il
said that it will be available for ships
within a few years.

Q. How did Thanksgiving Day orig
mate? E. B. c.
A. The origin of Thanksgiving Day
may be traced back through the ages
and the nations to the land of the
Canaanites from whom the Israelites
copied many of the customs. The har-
vest celebration appeared later among
the Hebrews and was called the Feast
of the Tabernacles. The harvest fes-
tival in Greece was celebrated in No
vember in honor of Demeter, the God
dess of Harvests, while the Romans
worshipped this harvest deity under
the name of Ceres. In England this
festival was called '"The Harvest
Home" and its origin may be traced
back to the time of the Saxon occupa-
ton. However, the first harvest fes-
tival in America was held by. the Pill
grims in 1921 and little by little the
custom spread until in 1865 1t became
national holiday proclaimed by the
president and reproclaimed by the
governor of each state.
@. How much royalty does per
son get on an invention?-J. G.
A. Royalty on an invention is a
matter to be determined between the
patentee and the licensee. There can
not be fixed rule. From one per cent
OF the selling price appears to be the
usual rate of return in royalty matters.
@. Does first class elevator gain
full speed between floors? G. A. w.
A. This would depend on the full
running speed of the elevator; and
distance between floors. If by the
term first class elevator a modern
high speed elevator $500 feet per min
ute or over is meant it may be safely
assumed that it does not attain full
speed between two successive floors il
of the average height-12 to Is feet.
Q. Is a Caesarian operation so call
ed for Julius Caesar? J. T. S.
A This operation was known Ions
before Caesar was born and the wore
is probably derived from the LatiI
caesus. perfect participle of caedert
meaning to cut. 1t is doubted tha
Julius Caesar was born with such ar
operation, and if the title is associat
ed with the method, an ancestor o
Gaius julius must have been the
Caesar to have been so designated.
