Charles Nordwig only within the

a term for forgery.
He formerly ran tailor shop in
Norfolk, and at one time had shop In
Pierce. He worked at the trade in
Norfolk, after returning from the pen

Before his first offense, Nordwig had
trouble with his wife and created a
sensation in Sioux City by kidnapping
their child. Later at Madison, the
child brought the parents together
again, but harmony was short lived

EUROPEAN TOWN PLANNING.
There Is an Increasing Distribution
of Parks and Fairgrounds.

OF FarkS ana FIaygrounGS.
1t has taken so much space to give
any idea of the scope of town plan
ming in Europe that very little can be
said about it's physical results. In the
newer quarters there is to been seen
first, a reasonably good provision of
main thoroughfares we'll planned and
well equipped. The tendency appears
to be to plan these to fit more closely
to the topography and the traffic re-
quirements and less with view to
producing any particular preconceived
type of architectural effect than for
merly. An instance of the better re-
gard for traffic requirements is the
avoidance, so far as possible, of con-
centrating several lines of traffic upon
single point of intersection, as in the
ronds points characteristic of the ear
lier French plans and in the informal
"knots" of streets often found in cities
of accidental growth.
Second. there Is an increasingly lib
eral and equitable distribution of small
parks and Fairgrounds as well as nu-
merous small intersecting squares and
minor enlargements Of the streets so
arranged as not to interfere with the
free movement of traffic. These are
replacing the familiar but highly in.
convenient and illogical circle or
square so placed at the intersection of
two or more important avenues as to
block them and require sharp de-
tour. Washington is full of the latter,
and some Of them are charming to
look upon. but the art Of town plan
ming has reached a point where it de-
mands in new plans better adjust
ment of the type of beauty to practi-
cal function.
l wish to point out that. although
we have an immense amount to learn
from Europe and especially from Ger
many in regard to town planning it
would be very foolish for us to copy
blindly what has been done there.
Apart from the differences In climatic
economic. social and political condi-
tons between European countries and
America. there is need for some eau
ton lest we copy the mistakes.
The Germans recognized fifteen
years ago that they had made mis-
takes in town planning. They have
made other mistakes since. They are
probably making mistakes now. but
they are watching the results, and
when they recognize mistake they
try to correct it. Here in America we
seem to go on complacently perpetu-
ating our old mistakes long after we
have recognized them. preparing over
again in our suburbs without material
variation the same conditions that
have given rise to results we deplore
in the older parts of our towns.
How to change this helpless fatalism
in our attitude toward the more funda-
mental factors of town growth is what
we most need to learn.-F. l.. Olmsted
