The CITY PLAN
Charles II. Robinson Of n. T.
Talks to Commercial Club.
Tells or Advantages Of New
Line Of Work for Topeka.

The city plan" contemplates city
efficiency. according to Charles Null

who has come to Topeka through the
Commercial club to draw up a plan
for this city, and who spoke in the
main room OF the club today.
In the course Of his remarks Mr..
with the beautiful in rather a primary
way. Its purpose is to make the city
better place in which to live and to
work. My idea of a city planner is
that he sould be what might be term
ed an efficiency engineer.
III you have a plan to follow and
know what you want to do you won't
have to undo a lot of things. I think
II you had had a better site for the
G. A. r. Memorial building you would
have got one hundred per cent more
Ior your investment.
The city plan should maintain the
individuality of the city. The first
thing try to do when I enter city
is to catch the spirit Of the town. It
is not my intention to try to transform
the people
THE city plan is really a program
of development. Its purpose is to put
before you Ian ideal towards which to
work. It seems to me you have the
right spirit here and all you need are
the proper directions.
You need someone who has had ex-
perience in city planning; 1t Is up to
you to develop the city. think in your
survey you are doing splendid work.
The city plan will have something
to say about the streets, their direc-
ton, etc. 1t will perhaps have some
thing to say about the parks and the
residence and industrial districts. 1t
will have something to say about the
growth Of your city. and some sug-
gestions relative to promoting this
growth. It will perhaps have some
thing to say about a civic center. use
the work perhaps because have been
enough Of Topeka to know what your
needs are.
II am very favorably impressed with
the general appearance Of the city.

white way"
Mr.. Robinson has drawn city plans
for many of the most progressive cities
OF the county. He holds the chair of
civic design at the University of I'LL
nois, the first chair of the kind to be
established in the country. He will re-
main in Topeka about a week.
1t was decided prior to the talk by
Mr.. Robinson by the members Of the
general committee Of fifty backing the
social survey plan to have an exhibit
at the Auditorium in February OF

to have changed and the first furry

However, there is a question if this
sentiment is in the majority. 1t was
very evident, however, that the legis-
latorS are not giving the subject
much attention and this is owing to
