<p>As a world city, New York is famous for many reasons; as a large city located primarily on islands at a complex of rivers, bays, and tidal straits, it has long depended on structural engineering for viability. Prominent structures include underwater vehicular and rail tunnels, bridges of every structural type, and aqueducts. Ten different buildings have held the world record for height, two arch bridges have held the world record for span, and four different suspension bridges have held the world record for their main span. With a multitude of successful businesses and the physical constraints of the geography, the motivation for technical innovation were present, and engineers were ready for the challenges.</p><p>These structures have generally not been built because they would break records, but rather because they served a purpose. For example, the Brooklyn Bridge, with a center span fiIy percent longer than the second- longest at the time of its construction, was built because ferries were the only transportation between New York and Brooklyn, then the first and third largest cities in the country. There is a close correlation, decade by decade and beginning in the 1880s, between what was feasible in terms of structural engineering and what has been built to enable the city to grow and prosper. This paper will examine that correlation and engineers’ role in the city’s evolution.</p>

Abstract This paper describes the organization and features of the AUTO-PIPE CAE System. AUTO-PIPE is a fully integrated software package which allows the User to perform the entire sequence of piping analysis and design in a streamlined work flow process. Major tasks in this automatic process includes: (1) Pipe Stress Analysis (2) Pipe Support Location Optimization (3) Stress Isometric Drawing Generation (4) Pipe Support Pattern Selection and Member Design (5) 3D Interference Detection for Support At the core of the System is the AUTO-PIPE (Relational) Database which contains all static (project-specific) and dynamic (model-specific) data required for all of the major tasks listed above. The AUTO-PIPE CAE System has been used, and is currently being used, for pipe system design for Nuclear Power Plants in Japan to achieve substantial manpower reduction and cost savings.

THE problem of health services for children of school age is particularly timely in view of current interest in such services. The editors of this column have asked several authorities in this field to state their opinion of the objectives of a school health service and to describe practical methods of attaining these goals. The first two letters in the current issue deal with this subject; other letters on health services for children of school age will be published in subsequent issues. Dr. James L. Wilson is professor of pediatrics at the University of Michigan; Dr. Jessie M. Bierman is professor of maternal and child health at the University of California School of Public Health; and Dr. Dorothy B. Nyswander is professor of Public Health Education in the same school, and the author of "Solving School Health Problems, the Astoria Demonstration Study," the Commonwealth Fund, 1942. The last two letters are from Dr. Albert D. Kaiser, health officer of Rochester, New York. Dr. Kaiser has described the program of the Council of Rochester Regional Hospitals for improving medical care in the 11 counties served by the member hospitals in the June issue of this column. His first letter in this issue describes how these services might be extended if additional funds were available. His second communication serves to make clear what was meant by "institutes conducted for . . . governing boards" as described in the eighth paragraph of his first letter.
