'rhat the automobile ancl improved roads seem so commonplace to­ day need not blind us 1o the great historical significance of these l'.hanges. The first "steam wagon,'' called the "Prairie Motor," headed for Denver in ,July, 1862. It might br called an automobile or it might be called a locomotive, lint it nnrlertook to travel the dirt roads and move under its own power. General J. R. Brown con­ eeived the i<lra of this nnique vehicle for transportation across the plains to Colorarlo, and gave his order to tlie "rovelty Iron Works in Tew York. Eighteen months were necessary for the building of the machine and the cost was $12,000. In due time it was shipped to Nebraska City, where the over­ land journey was to begin. Herc it was accorded a grand recep- 1ion. A banquet " ·as tendt>re<l the promoters of the plan and a pleasure trip through the eity 1yas arranged.

  • The Foreign Service Journal, January 1931
    JUfto gear’s! (greeting^ THE AMERICAN FOREIGN SERVICE JOURNAL DEPARTMENT OF STATE WASHINGTON, D. C. December 15, 1930. During the past year I have renewed my personal expe¬ rience with Foreign Service in the field. As an envoy to Nicaragua three years ago I came into contact with mem¬ bers of the Service, sharing many of their problems, and last winter as Head of the American Delegation in London I renewed that experience. I know what it is to make re¬ ports to Washington. 1 realize what it means to wait for answers. I have come in contact with the necessary organi¬ zation of a Mission, with the manifold problems which arise in dealing with the nationals of a country of which you are a resident and with foreign colleagues. All this experience has increased my appreciation of the problems and my esti¬ mate of the men in the Service who deal with them. I regard it as one of my principal functions to help increase their efficiency and lighten their burdens. I rejoice particu¬ larly in the evidence that has come to me of the increased morale in the Service during the past year. As a fellow- worker in these problems I send you my New Year’s greet¬ ings and wish you a happy continuance of your interesting and valuable work and a constant betterment of the condi¬ tions under which it is performed.
