doubtedly remember the great attrac-

Grated by electric motors TO the total

THE matter Of seats on the third or

one row OF seats Will be installed. as
/ tho illustration shows, but more seats
can readily be added az any time. II
Will only require n few minutes 10 go
from Grand Central 60 tho Times
! Square Station CT vice versa on the
moving platform, and the seats would
probably only be used by women, as
Mr. Smith pointed out. Another fca-
ture at this point Is that those in a
hurry can walk along any one OF the
moving platforms and gain time: for
instance. IL n man walks at tho rata
OF four miles per hour on the nine
mile per hour platform. no Will ac-
tually be moving in that particular

referring once more 10 the plat
form and its operation. 1t Will be seen
how the motor-drlven wheels under
the rails of tho platform sections Will
cGusc these sections to be propelled
forward in direction depending
upon the rotation OF the wheels. The
endwisc iuncture between the sec
tions and the moving platforms Is on
an even level. and they are closely
curved on the order OF a knuckle-
joint so that no gap occurs between
them. The rails OF each section are
- designed as TO correspond both at
front and back. and thus this unique
design permits OF the section moving
around the loop curves in a smooth
manner.
Regarding the heating OF this long
tunnel. MIR. Smith has suFgasted that
during severe cold weather the tunnel
systems. in which the moving plat
form was installed. could be steam
heated at regular intervals, and also
special vcntilating fans and BATTLE
walls could easily be provided at the
various stations, as we'll as at the
terminals, 80 as TO insure the proper
ventilation aud heating OF the pas

The Man Who Taught Our Navy to Shoot

and Is now, Impossible TO have much
target practice with the big guns. !
But Sims drilled his crew day after
day with his tube attachment. ~
he saw other naval officers smile at
hls experiment, he paid no attention.
And when general target practice
was next held the crews that Sims
had patiently and trelessly drilled

after that Sims had but one idea;
that every gun crew in the navy
should be drilled In the new way. lie

"In recent interview with Mr.. NJ.
Everhart Smith. consulting engineer
OF the construction concern which
will build this gigantic moving plat
form, 5000 feet in length and capable
of carrying 10000 people at one time,
a different suggestion was made con-
cerning the location OF this proposed
continuous moving platform. Instead
Uf having II occupy the space over
which the two northorly tracks now
run. Mr Smith pointed out that 1t rs
much more feasible and practical In
every way to have IL occupy the
present position Of the extreme north
erly and southerly tracks, leaving
two tracks in the centre for emer-
Eency shuttle train service or for the
extension OF the Queensboro system
10 Times Square. This mobilization
of the design and layout Of the NOV
ing platform system Us very Inn
portant one and practically nccessi-
tated, for the reason that II the re-
turn loop OF the platform passed along
in the position now occupied by one
OF the inside tracks, then passengers
could not alight at any point desired
excepting at the terminal stations at
either Grand Central or Times Square.
las is pointed out, there should be
not less than three moving platforms
in any case. each moving at "A diuef-
ent speed, the outer one say at three
miles, the intermediate at six miles
and the inner platform carrying the
seats, at nine miles per hour. There
fore. as Mr.. Smith suggested In dis
cusslng Mr.. Whitney's original idea
Il would not be possible for passeh-
gers travelling east to attempt TO
cross IA high speed (nine mile Per
hour platform moving west. To give
the greatest service and to enable
messengers To allght from or board
the moving platform at any point
along the entire route, the moving
platform System should occupy the
space now used by the two centre o"
the two outside tracks. In other
words the TWO llpNihb .i'H'''' ''''
would have TO have adjacent TO them
a stationary platform provided with
suitable exits and entrances.
concerning the initial cost OF this
great moving platform II is estimated
that II would approximate 100000.

also that Miss Liberty should re-

reasons.
Finally, the garments were finished
