cerned have expressed themselves as sat
isfied with the plan, so it is not expected
that any claims for damages will be pre-
scented. The plans were carefully gone
over last evening, and it is expected that
the work will be done by Road Commits
sioner Charles J. DUDE of Brattleboro.
On the Vermont side there will be a
gravel fill beginning l20 feet from the
bridge, about half way to the railroad,
and approaching the bridge on a ? per cent
up grade. A six-foOt cement walk will
extend from the north side of the rail
road crossing to the north side of the
bridge, and on that side of the fill there
will be a retaining wall 100 feet long
corresponding in height to the fill. A
stairway will lead down to the entrance
of the brick gas-holder north of the
highway. South of the highway a retain
ing wall will extend west from the
bridge short distance, then turn south
nearly at right angles to form a l4-foot
roadway on the river bank east of the
Twin State Gas & Electric Co.'S brick
building. The fill in the main highway
will raise the road to the doorstep of the
building. Near the northwest corner of
the building a manhole will be put in,
and the drainage will center at that
point.
From the New Hampshire end of the
bridge a fill will be made for about $50
J feet, going down on a > per cent grade
A retaining wall on the south side will
start on top of The present wing wall and

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 81. =
Low buildings erected on expansive
lots are more profitable than sl1yscrap-
ers towering into the air in the opinion
of various members of the National as
ISOLATION of Building Owners and man
ayers expressed at their annual con-
vention here. This is contradictory to
the generally accepted theory of realty
men.
Reading a paper at one of the ses-
sions ON Analysis of the Comparative
Investment Value of Office Buildings of
Various Heights, Edwin S. Jewell, of
Omaha, an advocate of the low building
theory, said that since land values are
enhanced by the increase in popula-
ton in a section and not by the size
of buildings on it, structures under 10
stories in height were more profitable in

When builders begin to erect low

The money put into elevators, heavy

Mr.. Jewell, who is chairman of the
operating experience committee of the
building owners and managers associa-
ton, also asserted that the low office
building plan would spread the bust
ness districts of cities over wider areas
and raise land values, enabling cities to
raise more revenue for schools and
other public improvements.
The low building plan, he said,
''would prevent congestion, promote
safety and good health and by forcing
the spreading of the business district
over wider area, provide more stores,
which would result in greater competi-
ton and lower prices to the buying
public
A low building, Mr. Jewell asserted
can be built for II cents per cubic foot
cheaper than a tall building of the same
quality because cement can be used in
stead of steel.
Mr.. Jewell asserted he had made
study of revenues from a large number
Of office buildings in more than 80 cities,
adding that the receipts and expendi-
lures from 143 buildings in 1919 showed
an average income of about $I4l per
square foot whereas it would require

Not Enough Coupons In The World.

NEW YORK, July = .-Postmaster Pat
declared the entqes%6rId's supply of IN
ternational postal coupons IS not large
enough to enable any person to accumu-
late the fortune which Charles Ponzi, the
Boston financier, is said to have made
through coupon transactions and foreign
exchange.
In order to make 100000. the sum
which Ponzi is credited with having re
allied from his operations, l6o,0W,ooo
coupons would have been required, .ae-
cording to Postmaster Patten.
ITO have made his money in these cont

Mr.. Patten. for the reason that enough
have not been printed to permit 1t. There
are not enough coupons in the world
Here in New York we keep not more
than $1,000 on hand. the demand for them
is so small.

Mr. Patten explained, show that only
$1,000 was paid to redeem coupons dur,
ing the three months ending June 30 ana
only $3.50 worth of coupons were sold
here during that period.

Ponzi has had 10000 accounts active at

of so to $4,000, it was said, with the av-
