Gives Four-Fold Reason.

'sThe reason for this increase in
density Is four-fold:
TIn the first place the! population
of most Of the cities has grown tre-
mendously without q corresponding g
increase in the number or width Of
streets This increase in population
has resulted in the construction OF
tall buildings in the business section
and much greater density Of popula-
tion in residence sections. SO that
the increased traffic is largely cen-
tered on a few main streets, The lines
of traffic being thus restricted to a
