If such a commission were actively
functioning now, one of it's first efforts
might be to divert some of the vast ap-
preparations already made for road con-
struction in this state for the improve
ment and extension of motor highways
between this city and strategic points
within what is usually called the metro
politan,, area-that is, between the city
proper AND important communities or the

American cities are forever being torn
down and rebuilt. The expense of cor
recting past mistakes in building is enor-
nous and constant, especially in the
East. 1t represents the price that must
be paid for lack of simple foresight.
The experience of every city in the
United States proves beyond argument
that squalor and overcrowding in resi-
dental communities are unnecessary as
well as costly. To prove this one need
only compare the declining land and real
estate values in congested areas every
where with the mounting value of SINH
Lao property in open and attractive SUBJ
urbs served by modern street railways
and stimulated by the slow and sure
characterization of the automobile.
Americans have a good sense of order
which somehow deserts them when they
build their towns. Nobody erects house
without first making plan. No one
would throw handful of mixed seed into
a back lot and return after a time with a
hope of finding a productive garden
patch. But residential and business COM
munities have been left to grow as they
will. The result is waste, slums, over
crowdng and cities that often have to
be made over because they weren't built
with an eye to the future.
Builders are slowly learning that it
will not do to think only in terms of the
present. The present lasts only an in
stant and then it is gone.

Some years ago by an act of the Penn
sylvania Legislature metropolitan plan
ming commission was formed to deal with
problems and opportunities Of suburban
development which are brought clearly
into the foreground once again by the
census estimates. 1t was felt then, as it
must be felt now, that everybody would
benefit if the trend of development in the
regions adjacent to Philadelphia, and
particularly in the sections where new
industrial activity will cause rapid
growth, were guided, regulated and in
spired by modern conception of COM
munity life and a sense of the obliga-
tions of a city to its people.
The aim Of the first metropolitan COM
mission, if memory serves, was to eimi-
nate the danger and the offense of slum
areas in regions where light and air and
open spaces are plentiful 1t was hoped,
too, that good roads, park spaces, wide
streets, transit facilities and the like, as
we'll as a new standard of building, might
be assured in advance for those who were
yet to settle in undeveloped areas here
abouts. It is unnecessary to dwell upon
the possible effects of such a program on
real estate values and on the common life
| of the big and little towns which new in
dustres inevitably create at their base.
! Yet the metropolitan planning commits
! sion received little support and no CO.
operation from the municipalities with
| which it tried to deal. The public could
not understand its aims. Even the bust
ness men and the owners of real estate
in the designated areas were apparently
unable to perceive the logic and CON
structive value Of its program.
The time has arrived when the re-
establishment of a metropolitan planning
commission seems altogether desirable.
If such an agency did no more than make
surveys and recommendations, if it cx-
listed only as an educational influence, it
could do an immense service. There was
one great defect in the policy of the first
metropolitan commission. 1t operated
modestly, in the background. It didn't
advertise its purpose.

CENSUS REPORTS SUGGEST
GLANCE AT THE FUTURE
The Expansive Energies of the City
Would Do Wonders II Properly
Directed

CENSUS estimates which indicate the
- swift and steady growth of Philadel-
phia have an interest that is not by any
means exclusive to the city itself. It is
for everybody who lives within a twenty
mile radius, for communities like Cam
den, Woodbury., Riverton, Chester and
Wilmington. that the new figures carry
a real meaning.
This city, as a center of industrial and
social activity, is expanding rapidly. 1t
cannot expand upward or downward. It
must move outward on all sides.
The Camden bridge will carry the life
and the impulses of this community far
over into New Jersey. The trend of in
dustrial development southwark along
the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware
will bring new communities into being
between this city and Chester. Before
the next census is taken a whole new
suburban area will have been built up.
Will this expansion be ordered and
scientific and of sort to insure pleas
ant environment for the people response
Bile for it or will it be disorderly process
of drift and accident?
Any new community is in one way like
an army. It's first dependence is on lines
of communication. Land values, general
prosperity and the social and business
life of new suburban communities will
depend to a great degree upon the man.
ner in which such communities are
planned in advance. Their general we'll
being will depend on modern motor roads
and transit service running out from
Philadelphia. New settlements may be
left in partial isolation or they may be
linked up as units in a metropolitan
scheme of life.
