Dr. Albert Sudekum, German Expert Municipal Plan

Seen and Studied.

he increased his field Of literary activity
by bringing out the Municipal Year

Germanys municipal activities.

and civic beauty. In the last analysis
If will be found that the essentials Of a
city are the very things which strike
your eye when perusing a map: Parks,
streets and other open places. Avenues,
trees and parks are 10 a city what the
human body; the slightest obstacle to

mendous loss of energy What kind OF
work can YOU expect also from a 'lunger,'
or even from healthy individual tenn

New York City. for instance. is the
worst planned city on earth; in fact, 1t
was not planned at all: real estate oper-
ators acquired the ground and proceeded
TO QlNlue IL up III the lloSl 'NpHOHil'di
manner: square blocks let no land go TO
waste as every square inch Of them can
bc built upon on the other hand, let
us see how wasteful such economy may
become. Just imagine a truck convey
ing a ton Of goods from the foot Of 14th
street cast To the foot Of 42d street
west. When you reckon the loss in
time, in wear and tear on horses, truck
and driver, caused by the angular course
the truck must follow. you will see that
the saving made by the real estate oper-
ators does not by any means make up
for the money squandered by the owners
Of thousands of trucks and other con-
voyances that do not happen to travel in
a straight easterly or westerly, north
crly or southerly direction.

private individuals plan all this YOU
must not blame them if they fail TO serve
the interests of the community before

human.
New York's PROPOSED Commission on

place the good of the community above
private interests; on one condition. how
ever-that is. if your commission is com
posed Of experts, not Of politicians or
prominent citizens I'm our age Of

but why should the banker be asked TO
express an opinion as 10 the improve

sign a new parkway may have a very
vague idea of the financial end OF the

that end of the business. Let the shoe
maker stick 10 his last.
Americans need not absolutely go to
Europe for inspiration. Cleveland hav-
ing made remarkable plans for a beau
tiful waterfront, let every city learn A
lesson from Cleveland; for an artistic
Capitol location look To St Paul and
Providence; hasn't Buffalo achieved at
a stroke one OF the most spectacular
pieces of city reconstruction in the new
century?

which forces the prices up Irrespective
of the real value. but it relieves over
crowding TO a certain extent, as IL
prompts owners of real estate To erect
houses on their lots. Let us stop this
cry Of Let the city so 10 the country.
Let us endow the city with all the ad-
Vantages of the country. Let us raze
the tenements, those shambles of ciyili-
cation, and replace them by municipal
fats for people of moderate means.

Albert Sudekum, although a young
man he was born in lS7D, seems TO
know all there is 20 know about civic

municipal life Of every large American
city.
He represents in the GSman Parlla-

one of the principal industrial centres OF
the country. When Sudekum entered ms

That sounds like a Wall street
proposition and one that even the
Street" would consider a large
undertaking, but Monte Vista
does not hesitate to say that such
a thing is to be put through. This
railroad will connect the coast Of
the Rio Grande with the coast of
the Saguache.
There has been doubt in some
minds that the sugar factory
would be built and hope in others
that it would not. Now that the
factory is we'll under way and
doubts dispelled and hopes blasted,
there must necessarily be some.
thing upon which such reflections
and aspirations can feed. Since
the thing most likely to happen is
the one around which the public
interest most quickly centers, it is
also the one about which an argu-
ment is the most easily started.
When a community is frozen up
and alternating from sheer lack Of
energy within themselves and
faith in their future prospects,
throwing cold water upon them
has little effect for it simply crusts
them over little thicker, really
adding to instead of distracting
from their comfort. But when
they are warm from exertion Of
manly effort put forth in the &C.
complishment Of great public en-
terprises, and their hearts are
beating with hope for their future
prospects,. then a little cold water
has an effect. Quite a disturbance
