MIGRATORY MOVEMENTS

It is prophesied by appar-
entity competent authority,
that within the next twenty
years two migratory move
nents will take place in the
United States that Will rev
olutionize the status OF the
towns and smaller cities:
One of these movements VIII
owe it's origin to the gen
eral migration of business
men, professional men, sal
aired people and wage~earn-
ers, with their families, from
The larger centers OF popu.,
lation to towns and cities OF
from 5000 to 25,000 inhablt-
ants, located within a radius
of fifty miles from their
shops and offices.
The other movement will
be a migration of industry,
including factories an d
worknen, from the larger
cities to the smaller cities
and towns. It is claimed that
thereby the saving in over
head, taxes, interest on cost
y land investment, or rent
ais, will more than balance
the urban advantages OF
large population.
It is stated that a city,
like a business, can grow to
such size that the we'll
known law Of diminishing
returns becomes operative
to a point where profits
cease. There is no doubt that
the problems of transported
ton, housing, health, fire
and police protection grow to
such complexity that their
solution is a matter ap-
preaching impossibility.
The automobile has
shrunken distance between
work-place and home by at
least a hundred per cent.
The motion picture has al
forded the small town the
recreation and amusement
formerly denied it, at prices
shat are within reach Of the
smallest income. The phono-
graph places in every home
the worlds best music. The
daily and weekly papers and
the hundreds Of magazines
give the people many of the
advantages of a college edu-
cation. So that the chief
lures and fascinations Of q
large city have in a measure
gone over to the towns and
Smaller ce1ters Of popttla-
.tion.
Alexandria is bound to
benefit by this trend OF
events. She not only posses
scs every physical attraction
that her big neighbor to the
north can boast, but IN ad~
dition, she has advantages
such as are vouchsafed to
but few other cities. Her
deep river, her geographical!
situation as gateway to the
south, her proximity to one
of the fairest and most fe2
tile valleys in the world, her
nearness to the large cities
Of the Atlantic coast, her &C
cess to ineXhaustible coal
fields-all these point to a
future that is rich in posi-.
bilities We believe, too, that
the realization Of these pos.
