BROOKLYN "New York City's Greatest Borough"
The facts and satisties of Brooklyn's industrial and com. merciid developnim, as well as its community of homes, well justify its slogan of "New York City's Greatest Borough". Besides including the geographical center of the city, Brooklyn is also the most populous uf all the boroughs.
Originally, Brooklyn was a group of small Dutch setile- ment# which survived despite frequent attachs by Indians. It was largely agricultural until permanent means of transporta- tion and communikation were established across the East River, The borough played a prominent part in the American Revolution and ito other wars in which this country was engaged.
Tenday. Brooklyb, besides being known as a city of homes, is the nation's foreign trade center, one of its largest and
most varied Indust ial communities, and a commercial estab- lishment outrankir z all but a few of the country's cities, Yet, despite its huge s'te, its position entitles it to look torward to a greater and e en more important growth in the future.
