Dividend l. Common Good.
The German government has been
investing tho great reserves Of heI
Industrial insurance in the upbuilding
nf nor cities And there Is indeed nc
greater or better use TO which in
surance reserves could be put. From
q business standpoint IL is better thar
any other Investment, For every sec
tion in a manufacturing city, built
along scientific lines, is another kind
Of insurance against sickness and in
efficiency for which the industrial
funds have been created. Every in
crease of health and efficiency is q
decrease on the drain on the reserve
funds. So that Germany in building
her modern cities, is converting the
reserves itno another insurance fund
whose greatest dividend is the com
mon good
The movement for city planning IS
another evidence Of the advance II
municipal administration that the
past decade has brought forth. cite.
are beginning to see that In proper
! forethought lies not only proper
growth, but real economy Three ma
! uonal city planning conferences nave
! been held IN TINS country, the last one
| In May Of this year. and the reports
| Of those conferences show the Wldi
! interest the work mas aroused In oul
cities.
Living Conditions FIRST
The housing problem is also receiv
! ing the attention it demands. The
realization is growing that a real city
plan is not only one of parks and
| houlevards. of magnificent public
| D. .ldings and splendid works, but Il
a plan which first and above al
| things looks to proper living condi
! tiops for its workers.
The opportunities for comprehen
| sivc city planning In our own city
will never come again. our factory
| districts are lust now being located
the outlying districts are as ye
! sparsely built up. A comprehensive
! city plan must be made now, or w
will be Obliged to spend later, in In
ADEQUATE correction, many times tn
amount that would be required nov
to correct the evils Of undirecte'
growth.
