conceives them, will be from sixty to eighty
stories high, composed Of glass, steel and

ordinary street block. Double walls OF
glass, separated by the space of about a
foot and strengthened throughout with
heavy wire screening, will enclose these
mammoth structures from the foundation
stones to the heavens.
People working and living behind these
walls will move in scientifically diffused
light, contributing greatly to their physical
well-being. These glass walls, colored
either green, light blue or cream. will allow
this light to permeate every corner of the
building, but prevent any view into the

On the higher

trains win be used for
freight and the trans

ton of mail, and from
the very tops OF the
buildings aeroplanes
will fly to distant
cities. The freight
cars of these days will
be designed especially
for the products they
viii convey, such as
furniture, building ma
terial or the products
OF the farm. Each car
will have an automatic
arrangement, consist
ing of demountable

be possible for that
car to deliver freight
anywhere OF the regu-
lar line Of travel. But
no automobile or train
OF any description will
be allowed to travel
on the ground floor or
business district of the
city, so that there will
be no fear OF pedes-
trians being run down
or killed.
Outside the city

lead onward into the
streets, which will be
