ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG. OREGON. THURSDAYAUGUST 1. 1929. I BIDI WILL PIEBCE SKY FUTUHt (Hunt skyscrapers standing 100 stories hifch ami as much as ton stnrifs u n d erg round, with double iln-k elevators capable of travel ing 2, t)(H) feet a minute and other i";iiiiustlc building developments are seriously predicted by several of America's most outstanding build ing experts w ho are now managing properties valued ut millions. I'lira-vlolet lays and air condi tion in, handled by super-veiuliat Ii.K system., which will supplant windows and other methods of so called natural ventilations, will be user) to provide lieultbful and com fonnbe conditions in these edifices each of which will shelter more people than populate many small ciii'-s. Clarence T. Coley, manager of the Kijnitahte buildiiiK of New York, recently told a national con vention of building owners and: managers, that these future sky scrapers will plumb unprecedented dentlis, covering multiple blocks, with the streets running under neath through archel tunnels. He said such buildings will be served 1. v double decked sidewalks and sub : tirface passages. Tho development of the area be low the streets is the only way in which the building owner may re cover the space lost through having to set back the superstructure. Air Coley said. The height will be limited by the efficiency limit of the elevators and the ground area by the distance people will have to walk to bring them from the doors. The elevators will have separate entrance and exit doors, so that loading and unloading may be done speedily, and the cars themselves will (ravel at the rate of 2.000 feet n minute, making stops five or ten floors apart. Most of these buildings will pro vide landing fields on their roofs for airplanes and dirigibles, accord ing to Charles K. Palmer, prominent Atlanta building expert and vice president of a national association of building owners. "A dirigible recently discharged passengers on the top of a Wash ington office building," Mr. Palmer told a group of executives repre senting $:t0,000,ono in office build ings. "How soon we will have to furnish landing fields in addition to garage facilities Is only a mat tor ol conjecture. You may say to yourself that the office building without windows artificially light ed and cooled and ventilated, noise proof and with a landing field for airpanes is a dream, but I sincere ly believe that most of us will live to see many of these improve ments." Ventilating experts declare that scientific air conditioning has pro gressed to such a point that effi cient control of air conditions in these suner-skv; crapers can be am ply handled without difficulty. For example, a report recently was read to the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers in which the unusual experiment of air conditioning a 40-story office building, tho Cnion Trust of I)e Unit, was described. In this building, electrical ice boxes are hooked up with steam heal, air washers, air fillers, and giant ventilating fans to manufne ture perfect weather In all seasons. All a tenant of the new building has to do on a sweltering, hot sum mer'a day is to open a register in his office and refrigerated, clean air, cooled to a -temperature of 70 degrees or less, will pour forth to sooth his feverish brow. Every room in the new building, which was recently opened, has its Indi vidual air control so that tenants may be comfortable and free from the city's dust and other sources of nir pollution. - The air conditioning and venti lating apparatus alone in the new building cost more than $J5o.onti Twenty-four fans blow 440,000 cu bin feet or 33,000 pounds of air per minute to ventilate the build ing. This is equal to 9f0 tons of nir per hour. The refrigerating ma chines, used for cooling the nir have a refrigerating capacity equi valent to the making of 700 tons ol Ice per day. Conditioned air " is driven Into the hank vaults to keep these spaces cool and well ventilat ed at ali tlines.- Officials have found that this type of air condi tioning has Increased the efficiency of employees more than 50 per oont At iIip Rnnie time, it has flt t meted new customers, the bank officers say. DOUGLAS BUILDING AND LOAN TO HAVE NEW OFFICE SPACE When the Commercial Abstract company completes its moving In to new quarters In the Medical Arts building, the Douglas Building and Loan association office will also be found there, according to Wayne E. ones, nianacer. Tho lnn company has had Its offices in the front part of the old quarters of the abstract firm for some time Host of the equipment of all pnyslcians and dentists who will u.cupy tne new building has been moved. Dr. Ic A. Wells reports that he will continue In his old of- uce in tne t'eruins building. WOULD BAR TRUCKS DAY AND HALF EACH WEEK (Aswu-iaUil I'm Latin Win-) CHICAGO, Aug. 1.
