LARGEST MECHANICAL
PLANT IN THE WORLD

NEW YORK. What is said to be
the largest and most elaborately
equipped mechanical plant for the
handling of mail in the world is now
located at the Grand Central Ter
n.inal here. The structure occupies
.in entire city block. It was con
structed by the railroad company and
kesed by the pot office department.
Although the building is at present
only three stories high. Its construc-

mit It to be carried up to a maxlmu n
'f twenty stories In the future, and it
i.' probable that New York will he the
first city to have one of the new post
office skyscrapers now advocated by
the department. The new . building
has lOu.HOu square feet of floor space
find its need was due to the rapid
Kiowth of the parcel post business
Pi w handled from this city. The ex
tirlor of the building la of white
stone and cream colored brick. In
side it is a vast network of belts,
chains, conveyors and lifts, all of
v hlch are operated by electricity, con
ti oiled by the pressing of a button.
These devices will eliminate the old
svstem of loading and unloading mail
curs by trucks. The plant Is so situ
ated, being directly over the railroad
tracks, that eight mall cars can be
unloaded or loaded at once, the whole
iteration being controlled by the
Pressing of a button. Many of the
d vices Installed to load and unload
the cars are new and are having
their first trial. Post office officials
apd railroad men predict that the
new plant will revolutionize the meth
c-d of handling enormous quantities
of mail at big railroad centers.

One of the war'g remarkable' ef
fects upon American trade was shown
here when, for the first time In his
tory, sugar was purchased for export
from the United States to Switzerland.
Although Switzerland is a next door
neighbor of Germany, the greatest
beet sugar country In the world, the
war has caused an embargo to be laid
on the exportation of sugar from
Germany and Austria-Hungary, and
consequently the Alpine republic finds
it necessary to send three thousand
miles across the Atlantic to secure the
national supply of sweetening. Not
enly Switzerland but Great Britain
France, Italy and Greece have been
purchasers of sugar in the New York
market. In the first nine months of
the war exports amounted to nearly
500,000,000 pounds valued at over
523,000.000. Naturally the heavy ex-
; ort demand for sugars which usu
ally comes to the American market
tas kept the prices comparatively
high, and the American farmers who
grow sugar, either In beets or cane,
tire likely to have a prosperous sea
son. In fact persons familiar with
the sugar trade agree that the war
has saved this Industry from extinc
tion for the time being. Prior to the
outbreak of hostilities and following
the legislation adopted by congress
for the free admission of foreign
grown sugar, many sugar mills and
factories closed down and tens of
thousands of farmers abandoned the
Wanting of beets and cane. With the
better price conditions brought about
by the war, the Atnerican crop prob
rtly will be larger than ever before,
and it will be possibe to continue su
gar growing in this country, at least
until the European conflict ends.
