Excerpt from The Port of New York To make it easier for business men, officials, teachers, and students to understand New York Harbour and to demand the utmost competence of New York as a port, is the main purpose of this book. It is written from the experience and studies of a Surveyor of Customs of the Port, responsible for directing nearly two thousand Federal employees in applying America's policy to the business which enters and leaves America's first port. First to be discovered, first to be occupied, first to be fought over for its advantages, first in the world in volume and value of commerce, the Port of New York is first in its lessons for America's future and first in immediate im portance to world trade. The third decade of the Twentieth Century will begin with almost half of the colossal foreign trade of the United States of America going out from and coming in through the Port of New York. Few American citizens are untouched by this port. Civics, history, government cannot do without it. It can be outvoted, but it cannot be outled in ability to help or hamper progress in our country.

Excerpt from The West Side Improvement and Its Relation to All of the Commerce of the Port of New York The upland back of the Manhattan piers has been developed by the building of a marginal way, 180 feet in width and a public street known as West street, 70 feet in width, making the entire available street and bulkhead area back of the piers 250 feet in width. It has been the practice to permit the construction of bulk head sheds upon the outshore fifty feet of the marginalway, and it is in these bulkhead sheds and in the sheds covering the piers that the entire Manhattan freight business of the majority of the New Jersey railroads is carried on. In addition to the actual transshipment of freight through these sheds, the practice of allowing a certain amount of free storage time has made it neces sary to use a very large portion of the shedded area for warehouse purposes. Careful studies of the freight movement at Manhattan piers showed that practically all of the incoming business is handled in between two and three hours in the morning, and that the outgoing business occupies a similar period in the late afternoon. At least two thousand cars per day are handled in and out of these Manhattan waterside stations. The necessity for dispatching the business within very limited periods of high congestion morning and evening, combined with the cramped conditions under which freight is handled over the piers and through the bulkhead sheds, has produced a condition which places a most serious burden upon the shippers of the City. West street and the marginal way are at times crowded with trucks to a point where it is impossible to reach the freight stations without intolerable and expensive de lays. Testimony which appears entirely reliable has been taken by a number of commissions which have ih vestigated the subject to the effect that several hours delay in waiting for a chance to receive or deliver freight is no uncommon occurrence, and that the actual cost to the New York shipper of getting freight to and from the waterside stations is frequently equal to or in excess of rail service as far west as Buffalo.

Excerpt from The Port of Philadelphia The opening of the Erie Canal caused a decline in the commerce of Philadelphia, while it greatly stimulated that of New York, since it increased immensely the territory tributary to that centre. It did not violate the general law relative to the location of the proper site for our city, viz: at the point of transfer between land and water carriage, or at the head of navigation, but it modified the conditions and enabled both New. York and Chicago to surpass us, in consequence of their terminal positions, on a line of less resistance, reaching a larger territory. The reason for the locus of transfer being found at the head of navigation for ocean vessels, will become apparent upon a moment's reflection. While land and water traffic are reciprocal, it must be remembered that'the water pro duces comparatively nothing while the cost of movement over it is much less than that on land. Hence the more land there is surrounding a navigable channel to the sea, the greater will be the commerce. A city on the border of an extended and straight coast-line, as Norfolk, for instance, will have but a semi-circular area to draw from; one which is on a reentrant angle, like New York, will have three fourths of the circle tributary to her port; while one that is in the heart of a continent, as Chicago, will have nearly the full circle, and hence for equal land rates of transportation and an equivalent population, the latter will have a great advantage as a shipping point. If there were a deep draught channel from Chicago to the sea, wh ersby the break of bulk at Buffalo and New York might be avoided, the water rate would be still lower, and the advantage of the terminals be even greater.

Excerpt from U. S. Navy Ports of the World: New York To compare the glory that was Rome's to the glory that is New York's is to compare the cockleshell ship, in which Henry Hudson sailed up the river, to the mighty ocean liners, which now go bellowing down the bay on their voyages to distant lands. Ancient writers who boasted of the wealth and splendor of their ancient cities would find, were they living, inexhaustible stores of material for more pretentious boasts in the achievements and growth of modern New York, almost a nation in itself, in wealth, in power, and in in uence.
