often the case with American cities.
A city should be planned and built with
n breadth of view and boldness Of execu-
ton; It should be built for the future
more than for the present, and its design
should halt at no necessary elaboration
nor consideration OF expense.
What the city Is for should always be
considered, and the most economical and
effective methods OF reaching its aims
should be adopted, yet the fact that 1t Is
not merely utllitarian should not be lost
sight Of. A city should not only be
place of residence, but an inspiration TO
it's inhabitants and worthy object OF
their civic pride.

machines were sent TO sevent-five

connection to note that in the last
fiscal year less than $2,OO0,000 worth
of automobiles were imported into the
United States.
While dollar diplomacy had some
thing to do with extending the auto

as to recent discoveries there.

To this work, for il was to watch work
