To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is of merely sentimental importance whether we can stretch a string around enough territory in New Jersey to enable us to claim the Port of New York as the largest metropolitan area in the world. But the rapid growth of that area in popula- tion and wealth is a matter of real consequence as showing values and conditions for which intelligent provision must be made. The figures from the census show a growth of New York City from 1900 to 1920 from 3,000,000 to 5,000,000, and in the New Jersey ...area of from 1,000,000 to 2,000,000. Counting the odd figures which we have dropped from these totals as an aid to memory, and the part of Westchester to be included the total comes very close to 8,000,000—7,974,000 in exact figures. That is a district of 8,000,000 people who have a like interest in the handling of freight quickly and cheaply, so that the cost of living may be reduced and the pros- perity of the metropolitan area may he increased. Heretofore the problem has been one of competition for commerce between the east and west side of the harbor, with the authorities in New Jersey showing greater energy and foresight in its local development than our own.
