NEW YORK. April 2S.-One hun
dred million people may comfortably
use the new Grand Central terminal
here in year and never touch foot
TO a stairway.
The station isn't built yet, by a
long way. but it's rising fast on the
site OF the old Grand Central. with
no interruptions TO train service. Its
most original feature is the elimina-
ton OF stairways-for II is actually
to be a station without a stairway, ex-
cept a few for ornamental purposes.
Travellers will get off train at the
lowest level, OF which there are four.
and reach the street without mount
ing a single step, or crushing into
an elevator. In place OF stairways
there will be ramps ways
leading from one level to another.
Getting people to and from trains
without friction is the big problem
OF the big terminal building.
When IL was decided to use ramps
there was a series of the most severe
ly practical tests. One incline after
another was built and torn down.
Scores of people OF every physical
type walked and ran up and down
dozens of times and then recorded
their experiences. 1t was determined
that a grade of feet in 100 was hard
ly noticeable to anyone carrying heavy
handbags. Whenever possible the
grades are only or 4 per cent.
Crowds going TO suburban and
through trains will never come into
contact with each other or with those
coming from trains. The line OF
ramps is always a straight line. The
crowd moves all in one direction. Out
wardbound crowds, always the hard
est to handle. will find their train
level by the force of gravity, automat-
fcally.
II will never be necessary for a
passenger to go to the baggage room.
After buying his ticket he passes on
TO the next counter, from which check
and tickets are sent by pneumatic
tube to the baggage room and re-
turned after checking.
Incoming baggage will be unloaded

STAIRWAYS.

beyond where passengers leave a
train. There will be no lodging OF
trucks along the platform.
In the new terminal 200 trains may
be sent out every hour II necessary.
BY the use of loops, trains will not
back out when empty, but will con-
tinue on to the yards below the street
level, TO be made ready for another
trip. This gives over the main track
entirely TO incoming and outgoing
trains filed with passengers.
Tmong the many novel features will
be small dressing rooms, where one
may change into dress clothes with
out the necessity OF hiring a room In
hotel. Three large kissing gal
leries" where people can wait TO meet
incoming passengers will overlook the

gates through which passengers pass.
The terminal will cover 70 acres

suburban level. This is AZ acres more
than is occupied by the new Pennsyl-
vania station. at present the largest
terminal under one roof in the world.
