Rising to Dominance ¢ om) Dr. J. Russell Smith of Columbia Uni- versity, distinguished commercial geographer and economist. recently said: “In the Northwest I expect American civilization to reach its maximum! Yes, I expect it to outstrip New York, overcoming the advantage which the metropolis has—an early start. . . . “Numerous reasons apart from the cli- mate lead one to predict an unrivaled future for this part of the country . .. It is access- ible to trade! The Panama Canal offers fine transportation facilities! And mechanical energy! The Cascades and the Coast Range, along with the Rockies, give the cities access to millions of horsepower of electrical energy. Nowhere in Europe or the Eastern United States is there any location for waterpower resources to rival it!’
