PROBLEM AT ROCKEFELLER'S
Contractors Baked by Three
Ton Cap to Massive Chimney.

Contractors who have begun work on
the roof of John d. Rockefcller's home. at
Pocantco Hills. have a problem on their
hands in removing the three-ton concrete
top 10 a massive chimney in the centre Of
the house This chimney was 50 large
that when ii was first put in use it sucked
the red hot Goals out Of the furnace and
shot them up into the air like the eruption
Of volcano. Mr.. Rockefeler's house
stands on high hiD and the chimney has
an exceptionally strong draft.
Something had TO be done, because as
fast as the fremen shovelled coal it would
be sucked up the chimney. The architects
decided to put freproof lining in the fue,
reducing it's size. and then a three-ton
cement cap was placed on top Of the Chin
ney. This solved the coal problem.
Now the contractors are puzzled as 10
the best way of getting the concrete top
down. They say it is impossible to use a
derrick.
