Lindenthal Says
He Can Bridge
The Ocean

NEW YORK, June 14.-lf Gustav
Lindenthal goes to San Francisco to
study the project to construct great
bridge across the bay don't ask him
whether such bridge is possible. -
Ask him whether it is practical"
TO L.indentllal- called the worlds
greatest bridge builder-no engineer
ing feat like that is impossible
Says Lindenthai:
Every engipeerinA problem gets
down to a question of dollars and
cents. You build a; bridge only if it
viii pay.
People seem to think there is
some conflict between bridge and
q tunnel, that il is matter of per-
sonal, preference. n
1t is perfectly possible for an en-
I gineer, given enough money, to DC
practically anything.
4 could buIId a bridge across the
Atlantic ocean and have the piers on
solid foundation, even. though in
places the ocean is three miles deep.
That bridges could be built so feet
high on floating anchored islands,
and would be strong enough to carry
I the heaviest traffic and to resis5 the
] biggest gales.
! There is nothing at all impossible
I in such a project. But It is not Drac-
! teal, because the cost would be too
great, and it could not carry traffic
A.! enough to pay the legitimate interest
on its cost OF construction and MAIN
tenanee."
; Lindenthal has had something tC
do with most of the big bridges built
in this country in the past so years
- designed them, was consulted
| about the design or some of his dc
I sign formulas were. used.
OF the five bridges over the East
river IN New York, Lindenthal> re
paired the Brooklyn bridge, finished
the Williamsburg bridge, designed
the Manhattan and Greensboro
Il bridges, and built the Hell Gate
bridge. The first three are the larg
I est suspension bridges the Queens

cantilever bridges, and He'll Gate is
the largest of all steel arch bridges

years old, he is at his Office every

haitian. The total investment will be
5000. 900 ,000, of which half will be re

capital will build it.
Lindenthal was born in Austria

half century. He himself does MOI

The worldwide shortage of houses
has resulted, in Europe, in the re-dis-
covery of cheap and abundant build
ing material that is almost miraculous
in the number Of problems it solves.
! This is nothing more or less than
rammed earth, or, as the French call
it, "pise," pronounced "peezay."
Just ordinary plain soil, such as is
found in any vacant lot, is rammed
between boards a few inches at a
= time. until it rings like a piece of
metal. The boards are moved up as
the work proceeds, just as in concrete
construction.
The result is monolithic wall that
in a few days becomes so strong that
will carry a load of more than 100
pounds a square inch.
The amazing thing is that the
weather does not affect it. The rain
does not soften it nor frost break it
down.
Is Not Adobe ~ :
An experimental wall built i'm Eng
land four years ago has withstood all
the changes of weather without the
least sign of deterioration, though il
has been given no protection excep.
that row of tiles has been placed on
top Of it.
Pise work must not be confused
with adobe. This latter is used in the
arid sections of Arizona, California;
and Mexico. An adobe houseis made
of sun-baked mud bricks into which
straw has been worked.
In pise work or as it might be
called, earth masonry, the earth must
not be wet but rather dry. No straw
or other binder is necessary and the
wall is built in one piece by moving
the forms as the work progresses.
A six-roomed house with a barn
having all conveniences and in strict
conformity with the rules of tbs
