WHILE New York I a grent
city In many waya, conapku
oua above every other phase
of It greatness la It role a
an International trade center. In re
rent year New York ha been han
dling approximately one-third of the
export of the United Btutea, meas
ured In value, and about ine-half of
the Imports.
For auch operation a these. New
York, perforce, must be a great me
tn Kills. In population It outrank
any one .of half the nutlon of the
earth, surpluses that of the entire
confluent of Australia, and almost
matches the combined strength of the
sit westernmost (late of the Ameri
can Union. In annual expenditures It
exceeds moat of the nations on the
mnp. Ite water system could supply
the whole earth with drinking water,
and It storage reservoir hold enough
to slake civilization' thirst for more
than a year. It electric transport.
t1n llnea carry nearly twice a many
passenger tn 12 month a all the
steam rftllmnde of the United Slate.
They could give every man, woman
and child living a ride every ten
montlis ao much for the yardstick of
comparison,
New York la of alt cltlea the one
where the majesty of small thing I
regarded a well a th greatnec of
large one.
Who count a nickel t let the great
eat transportation system of the age
waa built by nickel prospective, and
Uvea oo nickel realised. Who reckon
M dime, which even the waiter In a
quick-lunch room scarcely deem
worth a "Thank you!" Yet the world'e
loftiest building. It crowning cathe
dral of commerce, waa built out of the
email margin of profit In ten-cent
transaction. Who considers the dust
In the street? New York ha built up
sixty-flve acre of ground, valued at
several million dollar, out of street
aweeplnps. Who feel the dust and
flirt that adhere to Ids shoes? How
ever, more than seven ton of the
housewife' enemy I rnrrled by
tramping feet Into the ubway every
24 hours.
One rarrcly knnwa which to won
der at most New York, the rosmopo
lis of civilization, or New York, the
metropolis of the Western world. It
has more Irish and their ion and
daughter than Dublin, more Italians
and their children than hn Home nnd
a ninny German and their children
a Leipzig and Krutifort-on Mala to
gether. Vast Foreign Population.
Any (lory of New York begin with
It people, and In It vast aggregation
of humanity there I a wealth of In
terest. Let those who have been pessimis
tic about our Immigration atudy New
York. It eccma unbelievable; but If
every resident whose parent were
born In America were to leave the
city It standing a th most populous
center In the world would not be af
fected. ' In other words, the number
of Immigrant end their children resi
dent In New York I almost equal to
the combined populations of Pari and
Philadelphia and greater than the
combined popututlon of Clftcngo and
llerlln. , .
Three people out of every four In
the grent metropolis were born under
alien flng or are tlie children of the
foreign-born. Hut who that hn stud
led the situation can gainsay New
York' Americanism?
The story of how the one fourth of
the city' population that I of native
ancestry hn Americanized the three
fourth that I foreign In birth or pur
ontuge I revealed In the schools.
Along with many other cities. New
York long since learned that a vast
majority of the children who attend
public schools do not go to college af
terward. From thl realization came
the vocational schools. A day spent

On of Healthiest Cities.
Rut In spit of these condition.
New York I one of the healthiest
cities In America. Nowhere else I
there to be found a more splendid
tribute to the success of preventive
medicine In combating "catching" dis
ease than In the metropolis.
There are enough bablee born In
New York city every year to populate
four cities like Charlotte, N. C; Osh

Ohio, or Springfield, Mo. A many
people In New York die annually a
live in four cities like Elkhart, Ind.;
Leavenworth, Kan.; Beverly, Mans.,
or Raleigh, N. C. Bo many birth

vigilance to keep down Infant mortal

In every phase u Ha development
New York city la like an adolescent
boy who la always outgrowing bla
clothes; the city father are kept on
tenter hooka to meet It expansion.
Its school are alway overcrowded
because, rich as It Is, the municipality
cannot buy site and build school
fnst enough to keep op with the ever
growing child army. It transporta
tion lines are always choked with pa.
scngem because one subway cannot
be completed before another I need

way pressed to capacity because the
Interval between the realization of a
new need and the opening of facilities
to meet It I long enough In New
York' rate of expansion for a suc
ceeding need to be born.
Hut at Inst the city has found one
place where engineering construction
la able to outstrip human expansion
nnd prepare for decades ahead. It
has built a water system that will
take care of half a century of growth
nnd form a unit In the bigger system
that may lie beyond that period.
