Ways of the East. Although Constantinople is one of the busiest ports in the world with vessels from every country calling at her harbor, there are none of the modern conveniences for handling freight or passengers to be found. Practically all boats must be unloaded by means if lighters for there are no large docks. Boat hoists do their own work. This picture shows American Red Cross supplies bound for south Russia being transferred from the American steamer to lighters in the harbor of the Turkish capital

Salonika, where the Black Sea boats meet, is a great trading center for the Near East This forest of masts is located at the pier set aside for small fishing and trading craft that ply between Salonika and the Isles of Greece. Goods bartered are largely products of the region; rugs, sardines, fruit and olive oil. American stuffs transhipped at Salonika have been relief supplies of the American Red Cross and foodstuffs.
