And no business is more hide bound in this respect than shipping. But the industrial progress of America refutes the infallibility of custom. Henry Ford evidently does not intend to accept without question the usual methods of ship opera- tion just because they are ancient and honorable and were handed down from the days of sailing vessels and hand power. A fully illustrated ac- count will be found in this issue on how Ford loads and operates his ocean going ships. The present usefulness and future possibilities of the Ohio river as a convenient and economical route from Pittsburgh to the Gulf is described in a special article. Pier sheds like ship operations are old fashioned. An authority on the design and upkeep of docks discusses this problem and suggests an improved type. Private ownership is advocated by the leader of American steamship owners. BRANCH OFFICES BOSTON (20 8.5 =). +. e426: Old” South Bldg. CHICAGO - - - - - = 1147 People’s Gas Bldg.
