WEATHER
MAN SEES
No RELIEF

Gary. Hammond. East Chicago and
other cities in Lake county are doomed
to swelter under the intense heat until
the week end when the weather man
promises relief. This was his predic-
ton early this week. however. when
the mercury reached a high mark of
s6 degrees.
The first three days people will not
notice the heat as much as they will
after that time" groaned the weather
prophet mopping his brow" Buildings.
streets, sidewalks and roofs will be hot
after three days OF torrid temperature
and then the suffering will begin"
There may be little temporary re-
spite from a lake breeze now and
then. but that will effect those living
only in close proximity and those liv-
ing some distance away will have to
grin and bear 1t for several more
days"
Up to this hour there has been no
heat prostrations In G9ry. although as
is customary throughout the summer
time workmen in the hot mills are hav-
ing their customary narrow escape
from being overcome. There has been
some suffering in the crowded tene-
ment settlements in the foreign dis
tricts on the south side where they
seek every cool spot TO escape the hu-
midity.
Thousands of Garyites and out-of-
town visitors sought the cool waters
and breeze of Lake Michigan at Miller
beach yesterday and today all beaches
along the lake report record breaking
crowds. The new $125.o00 bath house
Is still progressing nicely and accord
ing to the contractors they hope to
have II ready for occupancy by the

CITY GROWTH

The fact that the Hammond Country

The country club deal means simply
that down town Hammond must Oe

district OF the prospectively s-nAaI a.
mated North township cities and the
real business district of this region
win be Fifteenth avenue or the Ridge
Road south OF the river.
WHAT DISTRACTIONS MEAN
some idea of what these obstruc-
lions TO the development Of the city
mean may be had from the experience
Of the city so far
Take the Erie yards. Years ago q
lack of foresight resulted In the pur-
chase of these yards and a territory
half q mile wide was permanently re-
moved from possible development.
The opening OF streets across this
property has been persistently pro
vented. The city finally developed
around this obstruction but 1t lies to-
day an a great barrier to intercourse
between the west and the east sides
Of Hammond.
Sohl street was prevented from be-
ing opened north and south. Carroll
street was prevented from being open
ed east and west. The few existing
thorou ghfares such as Holman street
are already glutted with moro traffic
than they can bear
The number of men employed In
these yards and the benefit TO the city
from this terminal activity is more
than offset by the irreparable dam
age that has been done.
THE GIBSON YARDS MISTAKE
During Lawrence BeckeTs admin
istration the New York Central Lines
established their Gibson yards. This
placed across the path OF East Chica-
go's southwark development an Inn
passable obstacle which the hump CUB
way never rernedied.
East Chicago's development was so
restricted that It was then and there
foredoomed to DO but a minor center
in the regions larger development.
The Gibson yards were a good thing
for Hammond but at the cost OF East
Chicago's future
THE STANDARD STEEL CAR CASE
Sometimes a community can afford
TO have a great obstacle placed across
the path OF its development II the
compensating advantages are great
enough This was the case when the
Standard Steel Car Company located
and placed great and impossible
barrier across the eastern limits OF
Hammond; a barrier which 1t Is now
proposed to remedy by a great inter
city boulevard on Standard avenue.
Just south of the pant, connecting up
with Gary's boulevard system.
