of their agents, to discharge that re-
sponstbility with complete knowledge or

that they should use a moderate amount
OF their collective energy and wealth in

The subject Of city planning is so
large and offers opportunity for such
flights Of Imagination that much self
restraint is called for, yet the conse-
quenees of neglect and the rewards Of
carefully planned work are so large that
it is worthy of the highest civic effort.
As understood today the subject In
cludes communication, transportation,
water supply, sanitation, public build
1ngs, aesthetics, recreation, housing, the
regulation Of private property IN the
public interest and the financial ar
engagements made necessary by these
things. These may be grouped for con-
venience into problems relating to: j,
circulation; 2, public buildings and
grounds, and 3, private property The
realization Of the ideas Of city planning
call for. as successive steps: A survey OF
conditions, the framing of plan, Great
ing the machinery Of administration and
the execution Of the plan.
Evidence proves LHaC III carry 14in0
some parts OF the great cities were
planned with q view to their convenience
and beauty, but it is in general true that
cities have grown up without any pre-
vious planning and TO a great extent
without large plans of orderly develop
ment. Two conspicuous instances of de-
liberate planning of a great city in ad-
vance suggest themselves: Washington,
which has in part at least been devel-
oped in accordance with the original de-
sign, and Canberra, the new capital OF
Australia, as yet in its earlier formative
state Only in rare instances have great
cities begun large undertakings Of re-
planning which involve at one time rad
zeal changes in the street plan or the
abandonment Of existing public build
1ngs in order that broad avenues, civic
centers and imposing public buildings
might appear. The enormous cost, the
inertia Of public sentiment and the OPP
position of vested interests have pre-
vented.
LONDON MISSED
BIG CHANCE.
London missed its great opportunity
when. after the. great fire, vested interests
prevented the rebuilding according to
Wrenn's plans. Likewise, America has

seen similar opportunities lest in Boston,
Chicago, San Francisco and Baltimore.
Paris and Vienna present the two notable
examples of replanning on an elaborate
scale.
'As 4 practical problem today city
planning presents two aspects:
First, in the older parts of cities 1t
IS a matter of replanning through the
opening of new streets or the widening
Of old ones to relieve congestion; the
cleaning up of a slum; the creating of
park and breathing space in crowded
neighborhoods, or determining and pre-
pairing the site for a public building.
Such projects involve the expenditure
Of vast sumsthe penalty paid for lack
of foresight in the past-and In their
turn are usually carried out singly and
without the look ahead to future build
ing. Millions are being spent in our
older cities as tribute to lack of plan
ming. New York City has spent in a
generation not less than $500 10000 in
correcting mistakes.
Second, in the outlying district there
is going on real work Of planning streets
and improvements. Here is the oppor-
tunity for harmonious and considered
development which, though too often
neglected, may be produced by coop
Grafton between authorities and the in
telligent self interest Of proprietors.
MORE MEANING
TO PLANNING NOW.
at is but a short time since the term
city planning gained currency. 1t has,
too often, meant nothing more than the
city beautiful and seemed to concern
itself with the planning and adornment
of a few show places of the city. The
jealous regard for individual rights and
vested property interests in this country
have made unpopular the imposition al
