Carroll l.iviug.donc Hiker, a
New York engineer, proposes in
a small book recently issued, to
change I lie climate ol' the whole
Atlantic roast of North America,
and to alter even tin* solar incli
nation ol' the earth. His plan is
simply that ol' turning (he warm
<lull* Stream, unehillcd, into the
very heart of the Arelie. The
warm enrreiit, tie mainlaiiis,
would melt the frozen polar . eas,
and b> this snhst it lit ion of water i
for ice he believes Hie earth j
would swing' around a bit on ilst
solar axis ami present to the more
direet ray.s of the sun the regions
that are now uninhabitable for
nio>I of I he human rare.
Not. only that, but lie would all
the same time, he declares, «»p«*nj
11 he ice-hound harbors of Kasi
eru Canada for the whole year's
I shipping: do away with the toys
i of Labrador and Ne\Yfoumllaml|
roasts and on the Northern At— j
llanlic, ami finally put an end to
j I lie great wandering icebergs on
i tin1 >leam>hip tracks that made
the Titanic disaster possible.
! The total cost of this work lie
I est imates at •>' I '.JO,000,000, a sum
far below the cost of the Panama
Icanal. and the accomplishment of
i the work, he declares, will be
jimich simpler.
i Mr. Hiker has carried out. scv
joral large engineering projects.
He built I he llrst refrigerating
warehouse jn the world, and in
stalled the first cold-storage
system in a Irans-atlanfic ship.
He designed and built the first
powerful- pumping dredge used
j by the United States government
to fill the Potomac flats near
Washington, D. C.. at a cost of
about, half the.government's first
estimate.
