Super-Highway of
Future Described
Elevated, Some Passing
Through Buildings, Is
Savant's Forecast
CHICAGO, Oct. . 12-p)-Engi-neering's
gift to the metropolis of
tomorrow was prctured as a sys
tem of super-highways, most of
them elevated and many of them
driven through buildings, to re
duce the number of supporting
structures on busy streets.
Dr. Miller McCllntock, director
of Yale university's bureau for
street traffic research, said in an
Interview that such a system of
routes, designed to carry all ma
jor traffic, would in large part re
move . the necessity of critical
judgments on the part of motor
ists and make it difficult for driv
ers to go wrong If obliged to do
some emergency thinking.
Dr. McCllntock. in Chicago for
the Rational safety council's sil
ver Jubilee, explained that the
principles of automatic traffic un
derlying the super-highway plan
evolved from studies begun sever
al years ago and completely sup
ported since as to accuracy and
propriety of construction.
No Grade Crossing
An engineering term for 'that
kind of thoroughfare la "Limited
Way." The highway Is divided,
has no access from abutting prop
erty, no grade crossings and its
efficiency and safety are height
ened by segregation of relatively
slow and fast traffic.
"Our. belief,' the Yale expert
said, "is that all American cities
of any size must provide for the
major movements of traffic by
routes of that kind. The cost will
be less than It has been tor the
minor and abortive types of
changes that have been made,
notably the futile widening of
streets.
"There actually is nothing fan
tastlc about' these principles of
construction. We are applying ex
actly the same principles an those
governing railroad operations.

Dr. Ludd M. Spivey, president
of Florida Southern college, an
nounced today a chair of demo
cracy will be established in the
Institution to combat anti-American
trends.
"Communism, fascism and oth
er forces are fighting aggressively
for expansion, and democracy In
the United States must be equally
militant," Dr. Spivey said.
"We shall bring to our campus
a teacher ... to give every stu
dent a thorough and intelligent
conception of true democracy."
