atrerythln Is possible, the plan la being
aertoualv countered.
If the, reiuler should stroll through
the bustnees section of Portland and
talclne the .Meier Frank building; as
the foundation and place upon that the
Wells-Farico and then keen on piling
them up until all the tall hullrtlnrs In
town were in a verticle shaft, he might
have some conception of the Impressive
height that it Is proposed to make the
latent proposed addition to metropolitan
eky scrapers.
Portland BalldlnfS Piled Up.
The Portland sky scrapers that It
'would be. necessary to thus superimpose
i In oolumn formation to attain the
height of the highest building yet pro
posed for New York are:. .'Meier A
Jrrank building 76 feet; WJ1 Is-Fargo,

block, 0, and then there would be room
left for the Meier & Frank 10-story an
nex and the proposed Wilcox building,
at Bixth and Washington streets, before
the 2,000 foot limit would be reached.
In Portland the height of buildings
Is limited by law, while the building
code of New Tork does not specify
"height, but says the maximum pressure
beneath the footings on a rock bottom,
,if caisson foundations be used, shall not
exceed 15 tons to the square foot.
The Scientific American, in carrying
this law to its last analysis, has found
vthat the muxlmum height would be,
8,000 feet. The figures of weights and
other caloulationa for such a tremendous
" tower, constructed on the general prin
ciples of the Singer building, have been
supplied bv O. F. Bemsch. chief engl-
' Mr, for Ernest Flagg. its designer.
Walls Twelve Feet Thiok.
The building would rise to a height
of 150 stories and its cost would be 160,
000,000. Its walls would be 12 inches
thick at the top and at the bottom 12
feet. They would withstand a wind
pressure of 80 pounds per square foot
all the way up.
The Scientific American declares that
mirh nn sstonlshtne structure would not
only be legal, but conservative. It would
shaft would give some Idea of the pro
portions which would obtain.
The proportion of height to either
brea.llli or depth of this possible colos
sus would be as 10 to 1. In other words,
the gmund plan of the building would be
'joo feet square. An ordinary pencil two
and a hslf Inches long, set on end. would
give some Mea of the proportions which
would obtain.
Bealataaoe to Bif Winds.
A J. 000-foot building on a foundation
!00 feet square would weigh 600,000
ions and the ordinary wind pressure
would be 6,000 tone. The pressure nec
essary to overturn It would be equal to
6.000.000 foot-tons and the danger point
would not be reached unless an unprece
dented cyclonic force should strike It.
Compared with the tall structures of
the world the one possible under New
York building laws and even now being
seriously considered by architects ana
engineers would be as a giant to dwarfs.
The 'forty centuries which looked
down from the Pyramids of Cheops," as
Napoleon expressed It, had seen no mate
to the monument of the Egyptians until
the dome o- St. Peter's gleamed above
Rome. Then came the Washington mon
ument with Its top 100 feet higher than
either of these.- It was not until the
Eiffel tower was erected with Its sum
mit 1,000 feet over the streets of Paris
that building engineers thought they
had attained the final achievement.
In structural problems and rests.
however, this bore no more resemblance
to the great New York sky scrapers
than did the Pyramids.
In the new era or sky scrapers in
New. York the Binger building was the
pioneer with the pinnacle of sts roof
mom than 600 feet above the sidewalk
This was un amailng building and
caused the rest of the country to call
New York "sky scraper mart." and a
good many of Its own citizens applied
the same term or censure.
Buildings Top Each Other,
And then came the Metropolitan
building, which overtopped the 81nger
and was mnro than 700 feet high. It
was nredlcted that this would be the
taUest office or habitable structure In
the world for a long time to come, but
while the Metropolitan wis In course
of construction architects were plan
ning the Equitable building, which, wher
completed, will be 909 feet high.
It Is safe to sav that. In the new
race of giant buildings, the next high
est one will be more than 1.000 feet tall
if, indeed, some man or group of men
with 160,000,000 to put Into one. does
not1- demand the maximum height al
lowed in New York.
The most serious objection to this
arises, from the fact that a 150-story
structure a storv, by the way. for
every foot of the tallest Portland build
ing 'would house a city full of people
and the congestion upon the sidewalk

THIRTEENTH SCORE

The thirteenth score In the Oregon
Journal's third annual scholarship con
test showed only one change of position,
Kay Harper, The Dalles, jumping from
second place to the first in district No. 4.
He succeeded in adding 13.800 votes,
this number being the second hlghept In
one score, Lenna Milton having the credit
of the highest, viz.: 13,476 In the
twelfth score. Freda Lannes. Dallas,

jority of 6.0.15 over Ralph Rohnctt.
Ralph eained 2,026 votes on the leader
In the last score and If he keeps up the
pace It will not he long before Freda
will drop to second place. Ralph added
8.365 votes 1n the last score, while Freda

was 6,1 GH, made by Beulah Gllkey. Cor

largest score of 4.000. Gladys Rogers,

were below the s.i mnrK ana snouiu

With only n few weeks more left the

that .counts. Those who rest on their

It Is up to the stu.ients to retain their

It requires no effort to move rapidly
downward, but to climb requires en

CLOWN'S ANTICS
KIDS' DELIGHT
That office buildings of greater height
than 20 stories do not pay Is the con
clusion arrived at by the national con
vention of building managers which was
recently held In Chicago when the
skyscraper proposition was discussed
from all standpoints. The opinion was
expressed by a majority of the delegates
present that the New York idea of a
60-story or 150-story building Is qot
likely to be adopted by Investors on ac
count of the greatly increased cost of
operating elevators sufficient to safe
guard the tenants.
The convention is the first of its kind
ever held, and it probably will result in
the formation of a national association
of building managers. Deleeates at
tended from New York, Buffalo, Pitts
burg. Cleveland. Milwaukee. St. Paul.
Minneapolis, Duluth, Seattle, Portland,
Detroit, Montgomery, Ala., Indianapo
lis and other cities.
Keglnald Pelham Bolton, a consult
ing engineer of New York, in a discuB
slon on the division of costs of services
in buildings, doubted the practicability
of extra high buildings, and practical
ly all the delegates agreed with him.
Mr. Bolton said that the heleht of a
building was governed by the elevator
service, and that in skyscrapers over

The mission of the clown is highly
estimable. lie is the materialization of
merriment and, and as essential to the
circus as the beautiful horses, the rid
ers, and all else which goes to tnake
up the tented performance of today.
The circus contains much of Instruc
tion and interest, but It must have fun
also, and the clowns are depended upon
to keep up Intermitting hilarity. What
would the children do at a ciownless
circus? The older folks appreciate the
daring and skill oftethe riders, of the
aerlallst of the acrobats, but the young
sters will turn away from the most won- I
dprful frats of skill, strength and agil
ity to watch the funny antics of ihe
clown.
The clown has kept pace with the
progress in other directions. He has
evoluted and Is still evoluting. Time

circus; when an enterprising manager

That normal conditions will soon gov
ern the lumber market Is the opinion of
most lumber manufacturers and deal
ers. Since the settlement of the eastern
freight rate the demand has gradually
Increased till it Is now considered very
fair with prices approaching a level
admitting a margin of profit.
The lumber Industry for the past 10
months has been a losing proposition
In a large number of Instances, so it is
declared bv those, familiar with transac
tlons In that line, but with return to
fair prices such losses will eventually
be recouped, since ordinarily the lumber
business is one or the greatest resources
of the' Pacific northwest.
The advanced freight rate that went
Into effect last fall and remained there
till ordered removed a short time ago
by the Interstate commerce commission
was the means of killing practically all
business. In the affected districts with
disastrous results to prices. They tot
tered and fell with nothing to steady or
support them till the old rate waa
again put In force, when dealers in the
east began to stock up again. This 19
what is being done now, and.,the result
Is Increased activity in the mills and
yards here.
Business Shaping- Itself. -
F. C. Knapn of the Peninsula Lumber
company, says that "business is gradual
ly coming back to a solid basis admit
ting: of a fair profit on the Investment.
"For nearly a year market conditions
were wretched.", said Mr. Knapn. "but
again we see .light ahead. Utah and
Colorado are buying again, and even
from far off Nebraska we have received
orders, for the first time the other day
since last fall. We thought that the
market was closed to us from the way
things looked, but with the freight rato
question disposed of our old friends are
back again.
"The railroads have not been buying I
.lumber for a long time. But It appears
that they are beginning; to make some
purchases for repair work, and it Is ex
pected that business for new project
win soon rouow. we look ror an active
railroad development, and a correspond
ing aemana lor material rrom the mills.
"As to local business one needs only
to refer to Bradstreet's report showing
the Increase In building projects during
juiy as compared wltn tne correspond
Ing month of a year ago. It says 3(1
per cent. That naturally means a good
iocs i oemand ror lumber.
"So far very little trouble has been
experienced on the part of buyers in
having orders filled, but for the present
mere appears to be a scarcity or up
pers, the demand for flooring having
cations at present favor a return of nor
mai conditions very shortly.
Price of XogB AdTanoe.
F. H. Ransome. manasrer of the Est
ern A Western I.nmber compnny. said:
"The advance in the price of Ioes has
already overreached the price or lumber.
ana mere is a considerably increased
activity in the lumber market The log
gers have been aettinsr low prices for
some time, and like the lumber manu
facturers they have been waltlne pa
tlently for a semblance of an Improve
ment. stocKs or clear lumber are very
low, and there Is no overabundance of
rough lumber. Prices on rough lumber
have been so low that the manufacture
of it has been held down to the mini
mum for several months. The railroad
have come into the market for material
for maintenance, although as yet they
do not appear to be buying Tor new
work."
Henrv B. Van Dtizer, superintendent
for the inman-poulsen Lumber com
any, states that local business has
ept up splendidly, and that lumber is
meetlna- with a better demand In all dl
rectlons. He considers the outlook for
a good season very encouraging, with
prices gradually reaching a normal
level.
