Structure Would House
250,000 and Be Twice
Height of Empire State
Air Station Is Provided
ST. LOUIS (UP) Erection of a
196-story building. 2000 feet high,
coverfnjr four city blocks, able to
house 250.000 persons, and costing
223.000.000 has been described to
architects here by Henri Rush, archi
tect and former chief engineer lor
the city of St. Louis. He haa been
working on the plans for three years.
Rush explained to the amazed
architects here that the building
would be more than twice as high
as the Empire State building In New
York City, which has 85 floors.
Rush's project woulfl provide
complete city In one building. It
would contain industrial and com
mercial facilities, and have room
left for a residential district, a com-
pleto university and a hospital.
Coast Site Susnested.
The location for the mammoth
structure would be accessible to
ocean vessels, he said. Furth'.:more.
so gigantic would it be that tourists
from all over the world would be
attracted to the United States to see
It and transact business In It.
He believes the building, or mart,
would furnish a way for America
to control world trade through a sort
of "International clearing house."
No attempt has been made to get
backing for the project yet. Rush
said. He haa considered taking the
plans to President Roosevelt.
Provides Air Terminal,
On one of the 200 floors would be
a station for air passengers. To top
the structure he would construct an
' observatory.
His plan provides the building
be air-conditioned.
In keeping with the magnificent
interior designs, the exterior would
be laid out on' a magnified scale.
The plans provide the building be
set in an immense plaza, planted
with trees and flowers and having
fountains and music pavilions. The

structure would be finished in white
terra cotta, laid over reinforced con
crete on a steel framework.
One hundred thousand men would
be employed for four years in its
building. Rush said.
Communication with all parts oi
the building and the rest of the
world would be made easy If his
plan were followed. Roads for auto,
street car, and train traffic would
enter the basement. Within the
building would be 126 passenger and
72 freight elevators.

against cancer, arteriosclerosis and
diabetes shifts to Canada's far north
country this summer.
Two Montreal specialists. Dr. I. M.
Rabinowitch and Dr. C. C. Blrchard,
will leave soon for the Arctic to con
duct preliminary studies Into the diet
and physical conditions of the Eski
mo, in an effort to discover why the
hardy natives or the frozen north ere
apparently immune from cancer.
The two medical men will leave
July 13 with the annual Arctic patrcl
f the Canadian government. Tiiey
will make only preliminary sturiie
but on their reports may be basr.t
further and more searching re
searches. Fuller Study Likely.
Their discoveries may lead the way
to establishment of experimental
posts to make complete studies of tiic
Eskimo's diet and general condition
In an effort to discover if his food
and drink are possible factors in cre

scourge of civilization cancer, and
other diseases.
Examinations will be mode of the

SECRET HIDEAWAY
OF FORD HOUSES
SUDBURY, Mass. (UP) Every
body here knows that Henry Ford
revels in his possession of Wayside
Inn with Its immensely vnlunble col
lection of antiques. But few are
aware that the motor magnate has a
secret hideaway not far from the
highly-publicized roadhouse.
Many a time, on visits here. Ford
has dlsappaered on a secret mission.
None of hts employes would reveal
his whereabouts. Questioners were
Kri'etcd with silence when they sought
to find him.
Locuted on a small country road
not more than a mile fmm th. r-ri
which Ford money built. Is a neat
colonial farmhouse. Its red paint is
fresh. It is in excellent repair. Na
tives knew it as the "Pnrmenter Sis
ters' house." But the natives would
not recognize the furnishings If 'they
were to peek In one of the windows.
Here it Is that Ford spends quiet
hours In solitude among some of the
most valuable of his antiques. In
the front room is a long Colonial
table at which stand high-backed
chairs. The ancient fireplace is re
pletfly equipped with fixture that
may have been used by colonists or
the Pilgrim fathers 300 years ago.
There is a small wooden cradle, the
rocker type, low on the ground, and
its curved contours brown with age.
Once It may hare held Peregrine
White, that first child of the May
flower entourage who was born at
sea.
The old house la filled with Colo
nial fittings. Hiah-Doater hru nrt
priceless chairs are secreted there.
out oniy one person has access to
these treasures, that Is, excepting the
trusted caretaker and the manager of
Ford's large estate. Possibly Ford
has taken close friends u-tth him nn
one of his visits. But natives think
It unlikely, it Is the owner's niche
for solitude.
