most branches of the wholesale trade

Waterfront Is Interesting New
 York if Known
By George Tucker

NEW YORK, Dec. 1, Il think it would be a good idea if New York were to arrange, for the benefit of visitors. en exhaustive itinerary of its waterfront.
 It's rime that thousands of guests pour into the ity weekly and never see beyond a certain bald yardage of dock space and Q few liners hitched to their berths.
 The waterfront in New York admittedly is now series of mechanical sheds showing noth- ing, on the surface, of the glam- our and intrigue 1t knew in oth- CT days, but there still is meat for a fascinating tour of it if it
The Nome daily nugget., 1937-12-02

We're ss' .stipp,ie'imented by; b':; an ex- pert guide who knew the A. B C.'s of its romantic interest,
 In arranging such tour would emphasize the romantic interest of the tramps and freight ers-especially the ones that ply between New York and those all most unknown ports of the trop- ics and the East.
 For there is where the interest lies--from these points come the stuff from which fiction and his tory are made.
 would have it so that one might go aboard those lumber ing, barnacled craft whose hold , carry hemp and shell and COCOA nut and seaweed.
 What can the great de luxe lin CTS offer in interest compared to these derelicts of the ssa whose decks have witnessed desperate struggles between men under the lights of tropic stars?
 There are bright, vivid pages of the Arabian Nights to be un- furled if one knows where to go strange babble of dialects and men whose skins range from lem on to ebony and alabaster, men who come from languid climes where peacocks roost in the ban yan trees and the nightingales are commonplace as hens in a barnyard.
 You'll see these men, swart and tawny, staring oddly at New York and seeing in it a civilization and a mode of life they cannot under stand. You'll see brown men from the tempt ed ctiiefosI yzIf the templed cities of India, Las cars, Malays (who are probably pirates) Javanese who native lands abound with wild orchids, men whose forebears tended goat helds on the Slopes of Palestine.
 This is the bright lining to the grey, mist-hung curtain of the waterfront. Few see it and fewer still come to know it, but it is there if you know where to look.
 I think New York ought to do something about it.

Viruses and Life
New York TimeS)

New York Times)
At Philadelphia last week DR.. W. NJ Stanley of
the Rockefeller Institutes Princeton station reviewed
the present state of knowledge of the mysterious
viruses which cause some plant diseases well as
infante paralysis yellow fever, rabies and encepha-
ltis. The review necessarily reflected his own i'm
mensey valuable contributions to subject which has
baffled Psychologists biologists and chemists.
1t in 1885 that DR.. Stanley startled the world
by announcing his in crystaizng the virus of
tobacco plant mosaic and in producing the disease
in healthy tobacco plants by mplantng the crystals
The virus in this concentrated form proved to be a
heavy protein molecule. Extending his researches
into the field of animal viruses, Dr. Stanley and his
associates find that these, too enormous protein
molecules: At last biochemsts and Psychologists know
with what entities they dealing 1t is eXaggera
ton to say the most important advance made since
human economy was discovered must be credited to
DR.. Stanley.
The import of these researches staggers the ina
gination. Viruses neither dead nor alive. They
to lie that shadowy borderland where matter
is ready to leap into life. For all know life is
being created before very eyes. But how? The
chemical compounds to which Dr. Stanley has devoted
much attention not themselves alive To infect
tissues they must be touched by life in the body
plant animal Is this the end? Or will it be pos
sibe day to ignite these crystals with the living
flame in the test tube-gnite them with some other
chemical? 1t seems like wild speculation And
yet there a time when chemistry despaired of
ever synthetizing outside the body of a simple
organic compound. If life should be created in
the laboratory merely by mixing two non-ivng chemi
calls science will have wrested from nature her pro-
foundest secret.
