| PAGE TWO ‘CHICAGO PLANS SUBWAY UNDER Can Be Built at Tenth of the Cost of Those Under ( the Streets GO ONLY HALF DEPTH ! if i. Would Dispense with Stairs, 1} Inclines or Elevators, i = Says Denison (By the Associated Press) Chicago July 28.—Subways under { chicago sidewalks instead of under {the city streets is the plan proposed \by -D. Chase Denison, Chicago civil ‘enigneer, who contends that such an improvement could safely be built at less than half the depth of the or- dinary type of underground railway and at a tenth of the cost. Only a small portion of such a '| subway system as Chicago needs can il be built at the depth that would be i:necessary if excavation should be . made under the street proper, owing ‘to the expense, according to Mr. i Denison, who has submitted to U. S. dSchwartz, chairman of the Chicago {Council Transportation Committee, a plan for a subway system ten or twelve feet deep under the sidewalks instead of twenty-five to fifty feet deep under the streets. It is under- stood that application has been made to the United States patent offi for protection of the plan, which Mr. Denison believes applicable to other cities. “The city of Chicago owns the streets of the city including the sidewalks up to the building lines,” said Mr: Denison. “The city has the right to lease ‘to the surface lines ithe space under the sidewalks for the car lines, This space is now used, if at all, chiefly by business houses for coal holes. “Such a deep subway as funds !{ could:bexprovided for would be in- adequate for present needsgwhereas a subway system built ten or twelve feet deep could provide for the fu- ture. In ten or twenty-five years the population of the city will be greatly increased. At present we are tweny-five years behind the times in our provision for traffic; most proposals are designed only to; catch up with the growth that already taken place and are not tar- sighted. A deep subway would be but temporary makeshift. Extend Throughout City “The sidewalk subway could be built at one-tenth the expense of @ deep subway, in one-tenth the time, and could extend throughout the city, as ten times as extensive a sys- tem could be built’ for the same money. In addition to its economy, the paln offers several advantages. “In' the first place, it would dis- pense with long stairs, inclines or iWelevators which many people, espe- {{ cially during the rush hourg, would i] not.and could not take. “A deep subway is also dark; hard to ventilate, and the noise is like that inside of a drum. It also is) dangerous;and ‘in‘case of accident o trap for humanity. “Under the new plan glass in the hf sidewatks would supply most of the alight required in day time; ventila- Hition could be arranged along the iI buildings.. It would work automatic- ally, the cars in motion forcing the r out in front of them and drawing in fresh air behind them by suc- Bq tion. “The cars would take on and let Ef off: people at every street intersec- tion in the loop district, and would make three to five times the speed iii made on the surface, run eight to Hten times more cars and carry as many more passengers. “The plan provides for such a routing of cars that no tracks would cross each other on grade or above} or below grade, thus saving much time and eliminating a cause of acci- dents.” s {NEW STANDARD AS RAISED IN N, Y.

There has been considerable feeling against Schaefer at Panama, and Sheriff. Han- sen says he fears violence in the even the accused man’s whereabouts is made known. _ Schaefer was regarded as a harmless character about the town of Panama, who harbored an intense dislike for whistling. Boys‘ ef the town had teased the aged max for years by whistling when within hearing dis- tance of him. : Last Friday the old man became so enraged at the whistling that he ob tained an ax and carried it about town threatening all who whistled. There are conflicting stories as to his motives for striking Hersdt. One version is that Hersdt, who was the village blacksmith had attempted to man and the boys. Another is that Hersdt was struck because he was whistling. At any rate Hersdt re- ceived a terrific blow which resulted in his death in an Omaha hospital the following’ night.

BONES ARE UNEARTHED \ There Are Also Footprints of Some Other Prehistoric Monster BONES NOT FOSSILIZED Edmonton, Alta., July 28—In a val; ley of the far northern ‘section of British Columbia, close to the Yukon border, which it is believed was never before visited by a white man, Frank Perry, mining ‘engineer of Vancou- ver, has .diseovered the remains of mastodons that once roamed North- ern Canada, ‘The location of the val- ley is not marked on maps, but it is north and west of the headwaters of the Findlay river. Indians will not travel through the valley, be- animals whose bones they have scen. In addition to the bones there are footprints in the sandstone and shale of some other pre-historic mon- ster; these are clearly defined marks showing-that the maker of’ the tracks was a three-toed animal. The bones, which are-of great size, are not fossilized but are in a state of excellent preservation. Hip bones and sections of the spine were found ecimens of «much his- valuefould be unegrthed. Mr. Perry; a recent visitor here, spent 14 years in the far northern territory in the quest of minerals, Neither eanoes ne pack horses can be used to gain access to the district, where these remains were found, and so far the only manner of travelling higs been to live on the game, using ‘ddgs‘to pack the camp equipment on their backs. It requires a year to make the journey in this way, but an airplane could cover the distance in. a few days. ORGANIZATION OF 13TH CENTURY Berlin, July -28.—Berlin’s oldest trades association, the bakers’. guild, this month observed the 660th ann: versary of its founding. Although: this organization, which was known originally as the Ger- mania guild, dates back only to 1272, there is documentary eyidence that the bakers’ trade was plied here,as early as 1230. By 1890 there were 750 members enrolled. Meanwhile another association of bakers, the Kongordia, sprang up, and in 1911 ‘the two organizations were amalgamated in a body which now requires affitla- tion of every baker in the city. ‘The |" present membership includes 1,670'| concerns, %, f, ra ODESSA SMILES AGAIN; U. S. RELIEF, ‘CAUSE Odessa, July. 28—American relief has done much for the ‘people ‘of Odessa, Four months ago their condition was heart rending. In March and April the city streets were unlighted; starvation killed faster than the au- thorities could rempve the bodies of its victims; the hospitdls were in un- speakable distress and from them and the Children’s Homes the death carts made constant trips -day and night to the city cemeteries. Workers:of the American Relic? Administration see today wonderful improvement. The people who walk- ed dejectedly through the streets three months ago now smile, and the children have begun again to laugh and ‘sivg?and enjoy themselves. They iare nothing like the care-worn and -hunger-pinched youngsters who slunk ot crawled about in-the spring. Hospitals. now conduct visitors through their wards with pride, for they have clean linen and ample medicine to care, for their patients. Storekeepers who in the trying deys feared to resame activity, think- ng that desperate people would loot their places, have -reopened: their doors and Odessa’s shopping zone is functioning well.

'T. King, deputy superintendent of public in- struction. “At the present time it looks like there would ‘be ‘an ‘abundance of teachers,” Mr. King declared. “We are receiving from three to eight ap- plications daily from outside the state and. judging by their: creden- tials most’ of the’ applicants are qualified teachers,” Wisconsin ands Indiana are best represented among the. applications received although there is a liberal sprinkling from Towa and many of the eastern states, : . “Several counties aré! about filled up already,” the deputy superintend- ent said. “In‘a few districts” efforts are being made to lower the wages of teachers. Most of these are ex- periencing some difficulty. For the most part, salaries will remain at about the’ same level as prevailed last year.” ~~! Los Angeles, Cal.
