whitney warren suggests One TO the city
Improvement Folks.

The City Club gave a dinner last night
at their house TO the New York City I'm
provement Commission. which recently
reported to the Mayor plans for the better
ment Of the city Whitney Warren Of
Warren Il Wetmore, the architects Of the
New York Centrals new terminal build
ing. said he was a firm believer in the
aesthetic effect of municipal improve
ments.
Even games Of all kinds not excepting
horse racing, should have proper grounds
provided for them by the city. The profits
Of racing. he said, could go to charity.
THE main principle, Mr., Warren went
on, is that all improvements should pay
for themselves. In vulgar parlance you
must get your bait back. When the ele
vateds are torn down and subways put in
their places the increased valuation Of
adjoining property will pay for the cost.
We should have no makeshift approach
10 Backwel's Island bridge. Fifty-ninth
street should be wiGened AMI the increased
valuation in property will pay for the i'm
provement.
The most pressing necessity. Mr.. Warren
declared. Is for better ways of reaching
the other boroughs. Approaches to the
various bridges 10 Brooklyn should be
monumental. because the moral effect OF a
proper entrance is tremendous.
The original plans and water colors OF
the commission proposed improveme nts
we're shown during the evening. Frank
Miles Day, chairman Of the committee on
municipal improvements of the American
Institute OF Architects, gave stereoptcon
lecture on municipal improvements through
out the country.
