SkY-SCRAPERS ARE
DOOMED IN CHICAGO
CorrosiOn Is Eating Away
Steel Frame Work.
GREAT BUILDINGS IN DANGER

General William Smith Says 1t Is Only
a Question of a Very Few Years
When the Mighty Towers viii Col
lapse.
Chicago, March 15.-"The steel
frame work in many of the big build
ings in the business district of Chi
cago is corroding, making them very
dangerous. 1t is only a question of a
few years when these buildings will
fall to the ground"
This statement was made by Gen.
eral William Sooy Smith at the thirty
fifth annual dinner of the Chicago real
estate board. He added; That the
steel frame work of some of the sky
scrapers is in the condition stated is
nothing short of public outrage"
The speaker explained that his state
ments were based on personal obser-
vations and investigations.
"The steel frame work imbedded in
concrete will last 1000 years." he said,
"but the steel frame work in many of
TIC DIS DuIIuIuSS is IelI Tree 10 Lu0
action of the air and gases which cir
culate through the tile and a space
about the steel.
"The owners of these structures
have the steel painted with oil. This
oil will withstand the corroding pro-
cess about three years. Then begins
the corrodfng of the steel, and within
a few years your sky-scrapers will
fall"
The speaker said that the elevated
road structures would not withstand
the cOrrOsiOn. He asserted that with
in ten years they would be dangerous
and within 20 years out of service
The corrosiOn of one-fifth of the thick
ness of the steel frame work of the
structures, he said, would render them
incapable of bearing their own weight
