ters his office through a door in

tains the opening of a mile-long
subterranean passage — Ottawa’s
subway, he calls it. He controls
the comfort of Canada’s Prime
Minister and the members of par
liament.
Gorman is a chief engineer of
the government’s central heating
plant. He has a staff of 15 men
and they manage to feed 16,500
tons of coal into the plant every
winter. The heating of 16 down
town government buildings de
pends upon them and the space
heated in approximately 35 m!l
lion cubic feet, or equivalent to
about 3,500 homes.
The Parliament buildings, the
old and new Supreme Court build
ings, the Confederation and Jus
tice buildings and Ottawa’s new
post office are among the struc
tures served by Gorman’s plant.
The plant is built into the side
of a 60-foot cliff which rises from
the Ottawa river. The entraice is
on the roof because that is where
trucks dump their loads of coal
into 2,000-ton and 1.000 ton bins.
An elevator is taken down to
the ground floor of the three-story
structure.
