MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE. MEDFOKD. OREGON. FT? TP AY. .TANTJATIY 31. 1936. PAOE NTNTE I RAZE LANDMARKS Historic Section Of 'Old Berlin' Leveled Munich Gets Big Opera House Hamburg Slums Cleared BERLIN (UP) Hitler, Goertng Ooobbels and other German minis ters for some time hive been buey ceremoniously opening new public building In all parts of Germany In their speeches they Invariably stress that the -Third Reich" Is 0 log to hare "a new face." Building trade has recovered from the slump affecting It during the depression years. Barracks and public buildings are being constructed by the hundreds throughout the Reich. In every corner of the country there are numerous buildings, like "Housa of Aviators," "House of Me chanics," "House of Peasants." "House of the People." "House of Merchants House of Jurists." "House of Phys icians." "House of The Youth." The and similar buildings all serve ad ministrative purposes. This, however, represents only small fraction of the large scale building program going on In Berlin Hamburg, Munich and other towns. "Old Berlin" Fades In the capital, a great part of the oldest and most historical section of "Old Berlin," between the Imperial Caatle and the City Hall, has been demolished. Centuries old houses dis appeared, and the Berllners no longer can trace the many famous spots as vividly described In old Chronicles. The ancleat Berlin had to give wy to the new head office of the largest German savings bank and to the new flgantto Relchbank building. Another old part nf Berlin, adjoin tag the section Just pulled down, will be broken up within the next few weeks. Among the buildings affected Is the famous "Palais Ephrtam." one of the most beautiful houses of the age of Frederick the Great. This house, however. Is not going to be demolished, but will remain a mu seum of cultural life In the 18th oentury. Also the traditional Wllhelmstrasae ehanged. Goerlng broke with the Prederictan style" In which most government offices were built In WH helmstrasse during the last two cen turies. His new air ministry presents ltaelf In up-to-date style. With more than 2,500 rooms, this youngest gov ernment department Is bjr far the largest of all ministries. Residential Areas Go Workmen are also busy In the out skirts of Berlin. Many quiet ports have eeased to be purely residential districts. At the same time, most of the the- aters have been modernized and en larged, as well as some of the mu seums. The Olympic Games scheduled for next summer, also involve a build ing program of their own. The Grune wald, favorite picnic center, was "at ticked" by wood-cutters. In the northern part of Berlin. Nazi architects rebuilt the "Lteb knecht Haus," up to January, 1033, the headquarters of the Communist party, changing Its name to "Horst Weasel Haus." Slum Clearance Lags In the poorer districts of Berlin. however, slum clearance has not play ed as prominent a part with Nazi town planners as In other German eltles, especially In Hamburg. Between 1025 and 1927 Germany's largest blocks of offices the "Bal lln-Haus" and the "Chlle-Haus" were built In Hamburg after demol ishing a part of the "Qaengevlertel." Another large section of the alums, known as "Qaengevlertel," however, remained unchanged. Nazis plan to rasa It. Hamburg thua la due to gain greatly because the "Gaengevlertrel undoubtedly contained Germany's most deplorable alums. The whole section for more than three centuries had been not only the home of the poorest, but also the most notorious hiding place of the uiioer world. Alongside the river Aister in Ham- ; burg s representative street, the Har- veatehuderweg. the rich Hanseauo merchant during the prosperity of Germany's oversea trade in the last century had their luxurious private houses built. During the second and third decades of this oentury, how ever, their riches dwindled and al most every estate was "(or sale" or to let." These boards have now al most entirely disappeared. Nasi officials had the houses re built and are now using them for administrative purpose. . Munich Gains Beauty Another big center of the Nazis' building program Is Munich. The fa mous "Brown House" has long prov ed too small for accommodating the party's headquarters. Recently Hitler opened the new party headquarters situated In Koentgsplata. Although this new center of party politics has Just been complettl. It has been announced that another administration building would be built at once. The Bavarian capital, known as the "City of Beer and Art," further adds to its fame by building a second op era house. According to a high Nazi official. Munich's new opera will be the largest and most splendid one In the world. Munich already possesses the coun try's largest museum, the famous "Deutches Museum." A larger one still, a "Museum of National -Socialist weltan&cauung" will now be built In Munich. 4 STRATO PICTURES M PIIDWATIIDI I UUIWrllUIV IDE HORIZ Rivers Appear As Delicate Tracery From 72,395 Feet Up Farms and Fields Like Checkerboard E AT DEATWOOD, 8. D. (UP) Oold 16 luring men deeper into the ground as this famous mining region, home of the fabulous Homeatake mine, con tinues to expand. New mills are being built. New properties are opening and new com panies are organizing. Gold produc tion Is Increasing. In 1034 the value of gold mined in South Dakota was 16,080,836 and mining experts are agreed that this will be surpassed when 1035 figures are available. The HomestAke la leading the drive for mineral wealth, with Its new Ross shaft that eventually will sink a mile Into the ore-bearing earth. Above ground a new hydro-electric plant and assay office naive been erected. Gold ha revived the ghost town of Rockford where three mills are be ing built and two mines ere expected to be producing ore soon. Two miles from here new Interests have acquired the Capitol Hill mine where a new ore vein recently was discovered. Ten miles away the Malt- land mine successfully has worked out a treatment of blue ores and is now employing 70 men. Other minerals are also sharing in the mining boom. Columblte is being shipped from Prlngle and the Keystone Is produc ing feldspar, they reported. This area is also aiding In the pro duction of flares, fireworks, batterica and medicines with Its output of spodumene from the Etta mine at Keystone. It's content of lithium ore is said to be the largest In the world. Ben ton it Is attracting capital to the edge of the Black H4ls where a new mill has been built and two others are under construction. WASHINGTON. D. O. (Spl) Striking pictures from high In the stratosphere, showing the earth's actual curvature on the horizon more clearly than ever before, and reveal ing how the world looks from the greatest height at which photographs ever have been made, have Just been developed from films exposed dur ing the recent stratosphere flight of the National Geographto society- army air corps balloon Explorer II. The photographs were shown for the first vime In connection with ceremonies at which Captain Albert W. Stevens, commander of the bal loon, and Captain Orvll A. Ander son. Its pilot, received Hubbard gold medals, highest award of the Nat ional Geographic society, In Wash ington, D. O. Presented by Gen. Pershing The flyers were given the awards "for distinguished achievement In solenttflc research." The medals were presented to them by General John J. Pershing, general of the armies of the United States and a life trustee of the National Geographic society. General Pershing was Introduced by Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, president of the society. The photographs were taken by Captain Stevens while the Explorer II was at Its "celling," 72,305 twt above South Dakota, a new world altitude record. He showed them dur ing a lecture describing the flight following the presentation of the medals. The picture showing the lateml curvature of the earth Includes stretch of the horizon 220 miles In length. This represents more than three degrees of a circle nearly 1 -100th of the total circumference of the earth. The curve of the horizon Is easily noticeable when the pic ture la projected on a screen phot ographic evidence that the world Is , round. When the edge of a ruler is laid along the horizon line the curv ature la even more plainly visible. Infra-Red Light Pierces Haze In taking this picture the camera used by Captain Stevens "saw a distance of approximately 300 miles, far beyond the range of the bumau i eye. The horizon showing tn the photograph Is estimated to hate i been at that distance from the cam- ; era. The photograph was taken by Infra-red light which is capable o; piercing distant haze. All of the other colore of sunlight are shut out of the camera by a red filter in mak ing this kind of long-distance pho ograph. The picture shows a vast stretch of western South Dakota, covering more than 33.000 square miles. The Black Hills, from which the flight suited and which have an area ut about O.ooo square miles, appear as a large dark area At one side of the picture 160 miles In the background. The picture was taken from a posi tion abov parwlee, 8. D. The horizon Una In the photo graph Is represented by a stratum of haze estimated to He about 10, 000 feet above the earth. This strat um. of haze, however, conforms close ly to the sea level surface of the earth and its curvature reflecta ac curately the curvature of the earth Itself. Rivers Mke Delicate Tracery Both still and motion pictures taken directly downward from thi stratosphere balloon while It was at ltn ceiling of 72.395 feet, the highest-altitude pictures of the earth ever taken, also were shown by Captain Stevens. They reveal the earth aa a huge plain marked with tiny checkerboard-like farms and fields. Cut ting Into the level, smooth farm lands are regions of erosion, with innumerable small stream courses. arroyos and creek beds, forming in tricate patterns of delicate tracery like frost on a window pane. Roads appear as thin, knife-like lines. Towns are practically Invisible.
