Traffic and the City Plan.

There was time when the city
planning movement touched the prob
lem of transportation very gingerly.
ABOUT the railroad company hung an
awful air of touch me not" The
imost that tine timid city planners
icould hope to do with the railroad
company was to persuade it to plant
Ia few shrubs about the depot and to
thire a one-legged switchman to keep

Icity planning movement is growing

iafraid to move railroad around when
Ut needs to. Indeed, the very first
problem which it attacks, in given
locality, is the problem Of transporta-
tion. How do travellers get into the
lefty? How do the workers get to their
twork? How do the commuters ar
give and depart?

authority on forestry, DR.. Henry, takes
the popular view to be correct, and
another authority adds that as far
back as 1873 the newly installed Ger

ed against the danger. Nurserymen
complain of ailments brought on them

DOES NOT MEAN PRETTINESS
Term "city Beautiful Has Been Much
Observation-Disclosures Ends to
Be Attained.

That term "the City Beautiful
sounds like tying pink ribbons around
lamp posts. Even as applied to civic
art, as distinct from city planning. the
name is sufficiently misleading. 1t IS
the idea indicated by that unfortunate,
falsifying phrase that Raymond Un'
win, in his admirable '"Town Planning
6n Practice" lampoons.
Civic art is too often understood to
consist of filling our streets with
marble fountains, dottins our squares
with groups OF statuary, twinins our
t1ampposts with wriggling acanthus
leaves or dolphins' tails, and our
buildings with meaningless punches OF
fruit and flowers tied up with impos-
Isible stone ribbons"
1t is not the prettifying of cities that
lis the object OF city planners. The
building Of intraurban, iatercity and
Interstate transit facilities, the con-
struction of sewers, of cutters, of gar
lbage disposal plants, the destruction
of insanitary areas to be replaced by
QeCSul HOlSIHS, lnC CS'StSPiiiSi-S SN
port facilities, the upbuilding Of the
health of the city through the crea-
tion OF Fairgrounds and parks-parks
primarily as health agents, not pretti-
hcation measures-all of these and
lsthers are the chief aims of city plan
ming. There will, of course, he nee
iessary improvement in the appear
ance of the city as the natural result
iof skill in city building, and that i'm
provement is an entirely proper OBJ
ject, but it ought not to be permitted
Ito paralyze the whole movement
Hhrough the crea ion of an entirely in
correct understanding Of the ends to
ibe attained.
Other phrases have been suggested,
which are useful as antitoxins to that
rCity Beautiful" phrase, but they gen
lerally accent some one phase of city
planning at the expense Of the others.
1.-THE City Practical" "The City Use
ful," "The City Scientific" are exam
piles. One of the best is negative. 1t
fwas coined by Robert W. De Forest
and represents the movement as aim
hng to exterminate the "Unregulated

asked that his check be cashed the
