Chicago River One
That Flows Uphill


Chicago. Oct. so. up Chicago has
flows uphill. II il named after the
city. Instead Of flowing into Lake
Michigan, as normal river should,
the lake flows into the RIVER.
This is not u phenomenon of nature
but an engineering feat Of man The
river is tapped by a drainage canal,
which in turn connects with the llli-
nois river and eventually with the
Mississippi river.
Thus DispOses Of Sewage
Engineers turned the river back
wards so that Chicago's sewage would
NOT pollute the lake As Il river il
probably has caused more grief and
GUESSING than any other. Chicagoans
every once in Il while wonder what
should be done with it.
Some would like to bridge it over
with Il wide boulcvard; others want to
fill it up, while another group, railing
at the government which maintains
that it is navigablc and must be kept
free for traffic, want to ban il as Il
carrier and put in fixed bridges.
Makes Chicago an Island
After moving west Il mile. the river
divides. one branch meandcriny north
and the other south. so that chicago's
loop virtually is an island. Proponents
of the boulevard idea hold that the
covering Of the stream would relieve
traffic and give the downtown area a
large breathing space.
All bridges across the river. and
there arc scores Of them. are movable
because every once in Il while flat
boat pulls through carrying lone
freight car or shipment Of some
kind moves inward. hating street
traffic as one bridge after another
is lifted
Those who wish to see fixed bridges
installed are pctitioning the govern
mcnt To rule that the stream no
longer is navigahlc. Blu, the war
department. still holds that the river
must be kept open To ship traffic.

"Fifteen years ago, the six best
sellers were confined to the serious

in that list we have about fifteen
