President Theodore Roosevelt strengthened the Monroe Doctrine in 1904 with his Roosevelt Corollary. This addition asserted the United States' right to intervene in Latin American countries to maintain stability and prevent European intervention. Roosevelt's position emphasized the U.S. as a regional police power, marking a significant expansion of American influence in the Western Hemisphere.

East Indian Railway established a Carriage and Wagon Department as part of the Locomotive Works in 1855 in Howrah. This is a known fact as my ancestor Robert Webb Pearce went out from England to set it up. It remained at Howrah until 1900 when it moved to Lilulah. I have copies of the original Carriage drawings. I am collecting together as much information as I can and if anyone can help it would be much appreciated. Please contact me directly. mike.pearce.fr@orange .fr
In 1920 the teams were; Akron Pros, Buffalo All-Americans, Decatur Staleys, Rock Island Independents, Dayton Triangles, Chicago Cardinals, Canton Bulldogs, Cleveland Tigers, Detroit Heralds, Chicago Tigers, Columbus Panhandles, Muncie Flyers, Rochester Jeffersons, Hammond Pros. Of those original teams, only two survive directly to today: The 1920 Decatur Staleys became the 1921 Chicago Staleys, who in 1922 became the Chicago Bears. The 1920 Chicago Cardinals are indeed today's Arizona Cardinals. Also, through a tortured history, it can be argued that todays Indianapolis Colts are descendents of the Dayton Triangles (the Triangles eventually became the Brooklyn Dodgers, who merged with the Boston Yanks, who eventually became the New York Yanks, who folded after 1951. The remants of this franchise were reborn as the 1952 Dallas Texans, which folded midseason. The remnants of the Texans became the 1953 Baltimore Colts, although for some reason the league does not acknowledge this Colts lineage)
