INTELLIGENT City Building

+ ever CITY was justified in patting itself upon the
/ back and claiming the national championship for
civic spirit indianapolis is it today
Justification for such celebration completed
Monday when Mayor Shank signed the zoning ordinance
No movement with such direct effect upon the life,
happiness and pocketbook of every man, woman and
child in this community pushed to success
with less opposition than has attended the work OF the
city plan commission What opposition there has been
has not been against the coming idea but rather con-
sisted of local complaints such objection to prohibit
ton Of business buildings where a property owner
thought they should be permitted.
In other cities where city planning has been put IN
effect there generally has been long battle in the Leg
while it was framing the ordinance and in the city
council before it passed the ordinance.
But in indianapolis there was little opposi-
ton in the Legislature few objections in public hear
ngs held by the commission not a dissenting vote in
the CITY council and not moment OF hesitation the
part of Mayor Shank when the ordinance brought
to him for signature.
Experts tell US zonng will prevent depreciation OF
property values promote safety through elimination OF
congestion in downtown streets, and make for far
more beautiful city.
Certainly common sense consideration Of the ord
nance ought to convince one that it is good for town
to make it impossible for the homes of the rich and
Door alike to be ruined by intrusion in residence dis
ricts OF unsghtly commercial buildings; to require
people in buildings to provide for sufficient light and air
for the health OF family and in districts for
play space for the children.
The coming ordinance, wisely administered will pre-
vent any new "sIum" district from being created by
crowded construction and eventually will wipe out what
distressing housing conditions now prevails

Box Office or Stage

4 YOUNG scenic designer, Norman BeLGeddes has
- taken Broadways breath away by proposing TO
theatrical magnates that they take the lead in
peey overhauing the American stage in the interests
Of saving American drama from the doldrums.
Mr.. BelGeddes would place his stage upon ele-
vator which would occupy large corner of the house
rather than the usual ledge along wall
That would give the scene depth IN place of tawdry
scenes, hastily thrown up to deceive far too
phistcated audience he would curtains of light
to stimulate the imagination. When scene closed,
the elevator-stage would descend to the basement
where another scene already set up, would be rolled
on and raised without the customary intermission

scntillating Broadway may not listen to this young
idea because he proposes to minimize the luxurious
box office and its surroundings, and to develop the
seamy side the asbestos curtain, but the scheme

Well, here's one:
There are four handcaps on the operation Of Amer

Second. oue-tenth Of an American ships earning
time is wasted by the delays in United States boiler

Third. coal profteering. which be renleded as
to ships at the same time is remedied to all other
coal users.
Fourth. the labor problem Let's look at that
minute Let Us admit argument, that the seamens
act encourages American sailors to leave their ships
mid-voyage Accept the argument that q subsidy Is
needed to make up the difference (All OF which
is admitted only for the sake Of argument)
An alternative subsidy bill would provide that Amer
lean ship owners might pay only the lowest paid
by any foreign competitors; that sailor signing on
for voyage signs on, also with the United States col
ector Of the port of departure and upon his return in
his ship having through the complete he

the wages paid by the ship owner and the wages fixed
by the seamen's law.

posed by the Government aa4 paying the labor sub

lean ships. and not to favored few. and would cost
the United States treasury tenth Of what proposed
in the present bill.
