SAYS SUBWAY Is ONLY RELIEF.
Calvin Tomkins Declares in Favor of Com
plete Municipal Control

Calvin Tomkins. president of the Municipal Art
Society. in a public address at the Wadleigh High
School last night under the auspices of the public
lecture bureau of the Board of Education, in
operation with the Municipal Art Society declared
that subways offer the only effectual relief from
congested traffic. He even went further, and de-
clared that municipal ownership Of the subways
desirable. In part he said:
The growth of New-York demands that the
transit facilities within should balance the facilities
to it's gates. Provision for city expansion
without congestion IS the great problem which all
great cities have TO meet New-York has peculiar
conditions to meet. Unless the city plans in ad-
vance, and not merely to catch up. there will be
interference of public with private Improvements.
There are only two methods of deyelopment-that
secured by planning ahead and that resulting from
meeting emergencies. The present is a critical
time, but yet comprehensive city transit plan
has been provided II would be well to follow the
example OF Paris. With the exception of the sub
way given 20 the Belmont syndicate for seventy
FIVE years, New-York is practically the same as
when Hudson sailed up the river. II IS proper
for the city TO get and to keep control Of the
underground rights and 10 plan for a complete
system. rather than TO permit private interests TO
do as they like. The combination of transit cor
porationS under municipal control IS desirable
vntsd roads should be abolished
