CHICAGO ID HAVE BIG MAIL STATION
Provision Made for AirpIane Service in Modern Post
 office Building
By Associated Press

Chicago, April 15.-The largest and most modern mail station in the world will be opened in Chicago this summer, barring accidents or unfors- seen delays.
 The bdllding, 75xS0o feet, and seven stories high, counting a basement, a ground level into which mail cars will run direct from the railroad yards, marks a departure from the usual post office practice of building along conventional lines or ornamen- tai architecture. It has been designed as a modern, daylight industrial building, and when completed will contain the last word In automatic conveyors and other time and labor saving devices.
 Provision has been made for the future growth of the airplane mall service by providing A clear roof space more than 600 feet long. where transferred from the larger trans continental flyers at Checkerboard field. Haywood.
 The station is located in the yards of the Union station and a short dis tance from Chicago and Northwestern station. Mall in carload lots will be handled direct to the lines entering these two stations, and can be switched to other stations.
 The basement level is on the same grade as the Union station tracks, and is equipped with spurs for han ding the mail cars. On the other side of the building, at the ground level, motor trucks with parcel post and other mail from the city will enter the building on 40-foot drive way and discharge their contents dl rect into automatic conveyors, which will lift the mail to the top floor and start it over a downward path of con- veyor chutes and sorting belts until 1t emerges. sorted, sacked and labeled at the mail car level
 On the main sorting floor for par eel post clerks working on either side of the main conveyors win divide the packages among other conveyors, which, in turn, will carry them to the sections set aside for the mall to each part of the country.
 At the last stage the sacks and pouches will slide down spiral chutes to circular platforms on the train level in the basement. Backed up around each circular platform, the waiting hand trucks will take the load to the mail cars.
 Completion of the new station will remove the handling of all mail from and to the loop. or destined for it, will pass through the congested dis tricts.
 The terminal is being erected by the Union station interests and will be leased to the government Beside the advantage of direct access to the railroad tracks, the government will obtain much lower rental rate than 1t pays for loop property.
