MODEL SUBURBAN CITY
| PLANNED BY MRS. SAGE

New York, Nov. 26.-Preliminary
plans of the Russell Sage Foundation,
established by Mrs. Sage as a memo.
rial to her husband for the establish.
ment of model suburban city, pro-
viding healthful and beautiful homes
for persons of moderate means. have
been announced.
Briefly, the project is to utilize
tract of 412 acres in Forest Hill gar.
dens, Long Island, nine miles from
New York City, in laying out town
for 1900 families.
First Expenses.
The initial financial expenditures
for the purpose, it is announced, now
amount to $2,25O,OO0. How much more
will be needed to carry the plans to
completion is not known, but the
foundation trustees state that Mrs.
Sage is prepared to supply all the
funds required to carry out her ideas.
Through the announcement it is
made plain that the enterprise is not
charity, but is to be made self-sup-
porting and is to yield fair return
on the investment. It's purpose is to
enable persons in moderate circum-
stances to own their own homes at
minimum cost, but amid ideal sur
roundings.
The minimum cost of paying for
home there, it is estimated, will be $2o
a month, including principal and IN
terest.
For the present, laboring men whose
wages are small, will not benefit d.
rectly from Mrs. Sages enterprise.
The cost of land in Forest Hill, 1t Is
explained, precludes provision for the
working class. Intimation that they
will be cared for later, however, ID
