gle to bring this error home to the
thinking Americans, but fine be-
ginning has been made in the spread
of the Home Rule idea. Oregon has
adopted such an amendment to its
constitution.
In America the idea has prevailed
that city must do only those things
specifically authorized in it's charter,
while in Europe city is supposed to
do anything it may think best for
the public welfare. Over there was
recognized the fact that the members
of community could and should do
for themselves collectively what few
could attain individually. Thus de-
veloped the excellent civic spirit of
European cities.
First, then, realize that the peo-
pie of Ashland can do for their city
and people anything which they be-
lieve for their welfare. The fact
that some other city does or does
not do this or that concerns you only
so far as 1t offers lesson from which
you may learn to your profit.
City Survey
Next, we note from this new civic
movement the value of systematic
study of ones city, Know your
CITY," might be an apt motto for
the whole splendid movement. The
important part played by what is
known as the "city" or "social sur
vey," makes it almost typical of the
movement. The wonderful success
of the movement can be placed to the
fact that it is based on thorough
understanding of facts before the in
itiation of plans of action
These surveys have considered
such subjects as:
/. The city's location, topography
of city and suburbs; water supply;
drainage; railroad or water shipping
facilities.
2. The city's business situation,
nearness of competing towns and ma
ture of trade territory; how same
may be developed; freight rates, etc;
fuel or power supply.
3. The city's population, how
many foreigners; their standard of
living; how public happiness can best
be served.
3. The city's government; city
finances, sufficiency and economy of
public services and utilities; jails,
hospitals, courts, etc.
5. The city's institutions, schools,
churches, theatres, public halls, parks
and Fairgrounds, clubs, Libraries,
lodges, museums, bands and other
musical organizations, charitable ac-
tivities and need for same.
From such a survey vast amount
of helpful suggestions comes for the

betterment of the city along mos
any line. And especially does il
point out wherein the city can fine
it's real individuality, the kind of &
city it can become and which it is
by nature and the needs of its peo.
pie, called upon to be.
City Planning
A striking outgrowth of these sur
veys has been the city planning move
ment. City planning is the opposite
to city drifting. 1t has especially
, to\do. with the material growth OF
the city, its street arrangement
building regulations and physical
plants for public functions. 1t. rec
ognizes that growth, to be beneficial,
should be along we'll planned lines
and that waste and disorder surely
follow the lack of a plan. A sensible
city plan produces economy, efficien-
cy and harmony.
There is not a city in America,
nor with few exceptions, in the world,
that does not show the tremendous
waste in capital, human effort and
human happiness due to a misdirect-
ed growth. Like Topsy "they Just
growed." 1t is to try to remedy for
the future this failure of the past,
that the city plan has sprung into
prominence.
A frequent error conceives city
planning as dealing only with the
aesthetic side of city life. Far from
it. It enters directly and primarily
into business considerations and
problems. Hen of large ability and
superior training are devoting them
selves professionally to this new
science.
doubt if there is a person in this
audience who fully appreciates the
extent of this city planning move
ment and its marvellous growth dur
ing the past few years. Even at the
danger of being tiresome, want to
mention some of the facts which in
dicate its Importance.
Extent of Movement
More than 40 cities in the United
States have already appointed City
Planning Commissions the purpose
of each of which is to have a COM
prehensiye plan drawn by expert
civic architects along which it is pro-
posed to forcec the future growth of
the city. Many other cities have
had such a plan devised for them but
not yet officially adopted.
In every state of the Union at
least one city, and in many states,
a large number of cities have entered
upon campaigns for bringing into eff
feet such plan.
In three states, laws have been
passed authorizing cities to appoint

Public Buildings

It should be apparent that in the
building of a city, the location and
architecture Of public buildings
should receive careful attention.
These buildings serve two-fold pur-
pose-the economical transaction of
public business and the architectural
adornment of the city. Every city
is pQpularly judged by its buildings.
They are the outward manifesto
tions of the character of its people.
In the Middle Ages the church was
the dominant building of a city,
showing the prominence OF the re-
ligious idea in the minds of the peo-
pie. In Rome the Forum was the
center and typifies our heritage from
that civilization of the Roman law.
High above Athens stood the Aero
polls which artistic shrine still tells
of the glory of Grecian art. In Genoa,
Florence and Venice the great pal
aces of merchant princes and the
fine example of the art of the Italian
Renaissance of which these mer-
chants were the patrons, gives evil
dence of the salient mercantile life
of that day. So in public buildings
is Written the history of each sue
ceeding generation.
In American public architecture
we are, happily, passing to a place
where good breeding is reflected in
edifices of simpler and more stately
design.
The grouping of public buildings
is important. A fine example of what
! mean is in the new civic center
plan adopted by Cleveland. A IL
brary. city hall, courthouse, post Of
flee and Chamber of Commerce are
to be built. A group plan has been
adopted and site selected along the
lake front which will allow the docks
and railroad station to become a
part of the general plan, promises to
make one of the finest gateways and
civic centers in America if not in the
world.
Good paving is manifestly a sine

days.
But to cap these examples is the
fact that foreign cities have GUS
tom of raising money for public pur-
poses by putting through a piece Of
improvement and then selling some
of the city-owned lands in that vicin-
ity for enough to pay for the i'm
provement and good round sum be-

II. Many members, while content TO
have the resolution buried In COM
mittee, seriously objected to voting
against such a resolution because 1t
involved voting against their own
convictions. Senator Stone and Mr..
Flood worked like trojans to induce
members to obey the presidents or

after Mr.. Wilson had authorized
them TO say that he would take
no further step In the direction of
war without first consulting Con-
gress, that Is at least the foreign af-
fairs committees of the two houses.

Messrs. Stone and Food gave their
solemn assurances that II they would

suit them regarding his next step.
The president promptly Informed
them that, without consulting them.

his Indignation and Mr.. Flood exhib-

It was not the time to quarrel.
and predictions OF break between
these prominent Democrats and Mr..

that the president should have SO
fatly broken his word to them knows
no limit.

Farmers and the TnrIfr.

Nothing could be more sophistical
than the Democratic contention that
the low rates Of the Underwood tariff
cannot hurt American farmers. as is
shown by the figures OF the Demo-
cratic statisticians. At present the
farmers of the United States are feed.
ing the greatest armies the world has
ever known. while the war has brought
European farming practically TO j
standstill.
During the first year OF the war our
expectation Of breadstuffs to Europe
increased 213 per cent; of horses,
3,490 per cent: Of mules. 2.795 per
cent; of hay, 2S3 per cent; OF meat
and dairy products, seventy-five per
cent; and OF sugar 74S per cent. The
cash gain in the value OF these six
classes of exports to Europe for the
first year Of the war, as compared
with the year before. amounted TO
S62O.95l 900.
With the end OF the war large pro-
portions of the armies now fighting
will return TO farming and it is rea-
nonable TO expect n falling off of over
six hundred millions In our agricul-
tural exports. Then unless the Demo-
cratic tariff bill shall have been rad
ically revised, the American farmers
will feel the real effects OF the Demo.
cratic tariff bill.

Bryan WORKING for Peace

Ex-Secretary Bryan has gone TO
Washington and is doing everything
In his power to avert war. He takes
the ground that the president has
exhausted his diplomatic resources
and that any further steps will mean
war and. therefore. come wholly
within the province of the Congress.
What will be the result OF Mr..
Bryan's efforts none can foretell.
MIR. Wilson has proved. so that his
staunchest friend cannot deny 1t, his
adherence of advice from any source
and his contempt for Congress. He
has Congress in position where It Is
helpless and he knows it, Congress
has no recourse against a president
but to impeach him. regardless OF the
extent to which he may usurp its pre-.
negatives. and with the nation in O
most delicate and difficult position
in its relation with a foreign and
war-like power, no truly patriotic
member OF Congress would think
seriously Of openly breaking with the
president. or even of publicly exhib'
iting a lack of harmony. which
would. of course. greatly weaken the
position of the United States. AS a
prominent Democratic senator puts
It:
ut is folly TO discuss the preroga.
tive OF the executive and of Congress
in a situation like this. President
Wilson has perfect confidence in his
own wisdom. He will not even listen
to the advice Of those mem.
beers of his party who were
dealing with foreign relations
even while he was only college pro.
lessor. much less be guided by it. He
may guide the ship of state through
its perilons position successfully. OF
he may run 1t on the rocks of war
but one thing is certain. He will
have his own way and the only thing
for us to do is to put up the most
united front possible, and Mr.. Bryan
should realize the fact"
