 London really stands for j neW idea in the world. 1t is a community with a conscious purpose. Its purpose is far moro than the building of streets and sewers the maintaining of an ef ficient police and fire department, the care of the health and lives of the people
 London is bent upon lifting its people from ignorance, squalor, disease and poverty. IL has reared 800 new school houses under the new public school act, which 1t fostcred. It has opened seventy libraries. It has founded 2,000 educational scholarships. It has open ed fifty public baths and twelve poly technics There are now 300 beautiful suuareS 106 Council parks and breath ing places, twelve royal parks and l2o borough' gardens.
 London is said tn he tho grCcncSt large city in the world. The Council has also raZcd many slum areas. and is erecting model homes for 100000 of it's people. About the city broad areas of land hay" been purchased on which cottages are to be built for the better it's own landlord. Not much has been done as yet, it Is true, but d big start on the housing question has been made, $ Democracy has vindicated it. self in the English city. It has found it's fullest expression in the London County Council. The London of to- morrow IS as full of hope as the Lon don of today is full of misery.
