OFFICE BUILDING OF FUTURE
You1I Ride In Horizontal Elevators
and Live in Bungalows on the
Roof, Is Prediction.

Duluth.-That the skyscraping Of
flee building of the near future will
contain many new features is the
prediction of c. A. Patterson, secre-
tary of the National Association of
Building Owners and Managers, in an
address at the opening of the associa-
tioI's convention held here recently.
Innovation" said Mr. Patterson, rs
the middle name of the modern sky
scraper. 1t will be a matter of a very
short time when big Office buildings
will have elevators running not only
up and down from the street to the
top Of the building but running hori-
zontally on different floors. Further
more. patrons will pay fares to ride
on these elevators and get transfers
from the vertical lifts to the horizon
tai, just as We get them on street
cars now.
They will pipe pure air from the
country right into the big city build
ings, just as they pipe pure water,
and bungalows built on top of tall
buildings will house the owners In
summer. A building permit for such
a bungalow already has been taken
out In Chicago"

N.s. WELLER ON COTTON

The FtfGfhidh agrees with suggestion made
assurance OF the relief OF the cotton situation,
both now and hereafter. Is the absolute assur-
ance that the acreage OF cotton will be reduced
next season. AS The Virgtnian has
remarked before. the South should not be lin
tied so strictly TO a single crop The soil OF
the country is capable of producing greatly di-
versihed crops, 1t should be given an oppor-
tunity to DO so.
Mr.. Wexler does not seem to think much of
the Buy-A- Bale Movement as a permanent or
effective solution of the present difficulty. He
regards it as inadequate. Neither does he regard
az of permanent benefit the Wade cotton pool
plan. although his sentiment on this question
is not quite so strong as on the matter of Buy.
ing-ABale Both of these are put forward in
the nature Of immediate relief while Mr. Wexler
looks for permanent cure. Mr.. Wexler's EN-.
rhass on acreage reduction is valuable We
feel that it is really vital point in the future
OF the South. not so much because of the ability
or inability Of the world 10 make use Of all
the cotton the South can produce. but because
sc feel the South can do better with diver
sifed industry than with a specialized one.
Specialization in this day is rife but it is
specialization in many different directions rather
than one universal trend.
