Healthful and Attractive Residential
DistrictS---Restrictio Essential to

BY J. c. NICHOLS of Kansas City.
City planning in almost every phase
of it's wide modern meaning has taken
root in the public conscience. Yet we
have thus far done very little as com
munities or as municipalities to prop
erIy create safeguard and guide the
growth Of home neighborhoods.
Much has been written about the
proper regulation and construction Of
streets for residence property. But the
subdividing of land for residential pur-
poses in practically all American cities
is generally left to chance or the direc-
ton of selfish private interests. City
authorities have to some extent made
certain general requirements as to a
reasonable continuity and regularity
of streets, but little progress has been
made toward planning residential sub
divisions
A few good residence neighborhoods
have been provided in almost every
city by the ordinary real estate devel
opment. The period over which the
safeguards in these areas extend is
generally of mere nominal duration in
proportion to the life of the city and
covers only a small section. City con

cally ends with the boundary lines OF

will, but that the courts would make

Resignation of
Wilson Accepted
(By United Press Association)

Washington, Oct. 14.-The "resig-
nation" of Henry Lane Wilson, am
bassador to Mexico during the Taft
regime, today was formally accept
ed" Ambassador Wilson following
precedent, sent in his resignation to
President Wilson Immediately after
the inauguration last March. One
reason it was not accepted then Was
that the United States, considering
the nearly breaking relations be-
tween this government and that OF
the usurper, Huerta, did not wish to
remain unrepresented in the revolu-
tion torn republic. To have accepted
Wilson's resignation at that time
would have meant that the United
States would either have to be rep
resented in Mexico by an official many
ranks below that of other countries,
or recognize the Huerta usurpation
by appointment of another ambass.l-
dor.
The passing of Ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson recalls the many open
charges made against HIN by some
Americans and several members of
the diplomatic corps in Mexico City
that he had aided Huerta in the lat
ter's overthrow of President Madeira,
who afterwards was murdered with
Vice President SuareZ. One of The
reasons assigned for not Immediately
removing Ambassador Wilson was
that to relieve him Of his title of am
bassador would give him the privilege
of talking freely regarding conditions
in Mexico, and thus embarrass the
administration. The administration
adhered rigidly to its policy not 80
accept Wilson's resignation until 10
day despite the statement made BY
Ambassador Wilson en- August 13 in
which he severely arraigned the Brit
ish foreign office. The United States,
because Of Wilson's statement, was
forced to humbly "explain" the "in-
cident." Now that Wilson is relieved
of all connection with the state de-
partment. his friends declare he viii
begin a series of statements which
they say will explain the course he
took in the Mexican crisis which re-
snlted ~ Madero's unseating.
