CITY PLANNERS COOPERATE

One of tbe hest things the aldermen have yet done IN their
effort To solve the problems now confronting the city has been to
rail- the CITY Plan Commission into conference with them. AS
most of these problems vitality concern the future OF the city 1T
is fitting that the body that is looking after this phase of munlcl
pal development be consulted.
There are two good reasons why this should be DONE one IS
that this commission has made a special study, with the help OF
expert city planners, of the city's development. 1t has been look
ing far into the future, visualzng the city as 1t will be fifteen or
twenty years hence and has been planning accordingly. The adj
vice of the men who make up this board, therefore, in such a matter
as track depression and laying out a sewer system, as o UTMOST
Importance if the city plan is to amount to anything at all.
Another reason for calling in the City Plan Commission for the
consideration of these big projects is that the city plan board IS
made up Of conservative business men, appointed without a thought
Of politics and who have only the interest of the city at heart.
While the aldermen are elected by the people to handle the NUM-
efpal affairs, it makes no difference how capable they may be
they need all the advice and assistance they can get at this critical
time, and there is no body of men more capable of helping them,
both as to ability and study Of the problems under consideration,
than the members of the City Plan Commission.
1t is to be hoped that there will be more and more co-opera-
ton between these two municipal boards in the future. After all,
the City Plan Commission is merely an advisory board. 1t can
accomplish nothing in the way of permanent development unless
the Board of Aldermen approve. No matter how excellent the
plans may be that the commission prepares, the final say rests with
the aldermen; il is for them to accept or reject.
But the aldermen are wise in making use of the city plan
board and there is no doubt that with the two boards working to-
gether much that is really worth while can be accomplished. The
aldermen are supreme in all city affairs, but really big men are
not afraid to seek advice from whatever source available. In fact,
it gives the people more confidence when they see their officials
working together for the good of the city in this way. 1t is to be
hoped that the conference already held is only the beginning of
many to follow.

YOU, THE ACTOR

Life, to really enjoyable, has to be staged craftlly. The
optimist tells you to let things take their natural course,
without worrying about them. But such a policy is apt to
make existence dull.
The dramatic instinct is born in all of US. And life is at
its best when we exercise this instinct.
For instance, the average wife who makes a success of her
marriage is a wizard at sagecraft. She stages the family
routine intuitively, usually without realizing it.
Mothers tact, her ability to "'smooth things over' and
keep members of the family in line and contented, is merely
the working of her dramatic instinct.
Where home is unhappy, confusing or otherwise uninvit>
ing, it generally lacks proper staging. All women realize
this, and it probably explains why women are more interest
ed in theatricals than men are. They have to be.
Mother is a Belasco.
ttStep forward, Willie, and speak your piece" And father
and the others are stagemanaged the same as Willie.
The dramatic intuition of the woman who has to put up
with a disagreeable husband or an impish child is close to
the phenomenal
Every woman, because she has the dramatic instinct
strongly developed in her, at some time or other passes
through a period in which she longs to be on the stage.
Illustrating their stage instinct: You have observed how
some women can make a striking dramatic effect out OF sucn
a simple incident as swapping a finger, Struggling a shoulder
or abruptly closing a book.
No, you do not have to go to the drama or the moves to
find superb acting and staging. just watch mother, craftlly
changing the family plot to keep the actors from becoming
bored or smashing the scenery.
Are you staging your life to make the play, OF which you
are O part, enjoyable and interesting for the actors assoclat~
ed with youa It applies to business, the same as to the
home. When any part of existence is boresome, something
is wrong with the staging. And that something can be cor
rected by any one with a little knowledge OF psychology, the
study Of human nature.

Near Our Limit
OF Population

D.1r1MoRE Jan. 20.-About
10 year 21OO the United States VIII
have reached a point at Whlcn IL WIN
he unable to support my more All
This is one of the startling as
sertions of DR.. Raymond Pearl, pro-
lessor of vital statistics at joins
hopkins University.
"If no way has been found 10 pea
populations progress" he says ene
United States will hnd itsell lnei
We will have some 200,000,00O peo-
,,e and thenceforward the num-
Fer will oscillate, back and forth, as
a few years of famine and then
Of plenty affect it" -
pearl is well-known in
circles for his studies in population
srrowth. He is one of the
leadinr biologists and statistlclans
and has specialized on heredity
biometry, or statistical study IN nu-
man life's variations
"The world is on the high roao
to population sa~turation," IS MS con-
clusion. From my experiments l
have formed two mathematical laws
according to which populations seeh'
TO grow.
How Laws Work
zone is that a population, start
ing at a beginning as near as posi-
hle to zero, grows at an increasing
rate until it reaches its opttmum re-
Iation between its means or supslst"
ence and the number Of people.
Then it keeps on growing, but at an
ever-decreasing rate until the I
uration point is reached.
''The 'optimum relation in the
United States was passed In 1919.
Now our population is growing put
at a decreasing rate. Hoboken, ~
T., is already close to its own sat
uration point. If its population IN
s the city will ave to ex-
pand or its people will have to o
out.
when the satutation point is
reached, what happens to the United
States will be about the same as
what is happening in China today,
IL nothing is done meanwhile to cor
rect this law. That is, famine, pes
thence. war, will U down the popu-
Iation for a few years.. Then there
will be a few more good years, and
famine will step in again.
War, Pestilence, Famine
"China is reacting to the second
law of population growth-the law
of self-regulation. That, in simple
terms, is that war, pestilence n
| other calamities mako only a little
| jiggle in the population curve, which
| then corrects itself as though there
were no disaster.
"War and pestilence, therefore,
are no solution. The only other one
| suggested thus far is birth control.
| ON that subject I am still doubtful.
It's good remains to be felt.
"The only alternative is this law
| of self-regulation by which over
crowding results in great misery n
suffering.
"I have come to believe that the
| fundamental cause of the last wal
was population pressure, just as 1t
has been in the past and undoubted-
ly will be in the future. But that
does not solve the problem"

Hoover has youth, or comparative
youth.
His Age in His Favor
He will have just turned fifty when
the 1924 fight is at its height. This
means that he can look forward to
at least four campaigns in which %
attain his ambition so far as age is a
| factor, for he will be but sixty-two
in 1886 and men have been candi-
| dates for the presidency after they
have long since passed that mile
stone.
It is not suggested that Mr.. Hoover
! will be a perennial candidate, rival
ing William Jennings Bryan, but
when a man is after the big political
prize it must be a comfort to him to
know that he does not have to win
it in his first attempt or be eliminat-
ed from serious consideration by old
&C..
Herbert Hoover is generally rated
as able-as an efficient executive and
as well grounded in the economic
| problems and international questions
that are of prime importance at this
time. But he Is not so highly re-
garded as a politician. 1t Is pointed
out that he had a rare opportunity
in 1920 and made comparatively
little of it. His failure is attributed
largely to poor political Judgment
| either his own or that of the advisors
! with whom he. surrounded himself.
1t will be recalled that from the
very beginning of the p~reliminaries
looking to the 1920 campaign 1t was
expected that Mr.. Hoover would be
a candidate for president, and he
was regarded as a formidable factor
! -, 4Io C;f,,a fioY, pynn wh0n IL uro q n nf
definitely known whether he would
! align himself with the Democrats or
with the Republicans, 1t was as
| sumed hat he had been a Republi-
can, but he had been promine lilly
identified with a Democratic admin
istration and it was considered pos
sible that he might identify himself
with that party. Other candidates
and their friends naturally sought
to "Smoke him out" on the question
of his party affiliations.
1t is a sound principle of politics
as well as of other kinds of warfare
never to do what your opponent
wants or expects you to do. Mr..
Hoover was in a splendid position to
keep everybody guessing. He might
have said, substantially, that in the
crisis confronting this country and
the world at that time part,sanship
was a matter of minor importance,
that he was first of all and above all
an American, that his position on
the vital issues was thus and so, and
that he stood ready to lead any con.
siderable element of his fellow Amer
leans that deemed him worthy Of
leadership. That would have given
an entirely different slant to the
campaign. The Democrats might
have nominated Hoover for fear the
Republicans would If they didn't, Oh
the Republicans might have named
him on the theory that the Demo
Gratis had overlooked the one besr
bet.
But Mr.. Hoover permitted himsel,
to be smoked out, declared his par
tisanship, and from that hour hi
stature as a presidential candidate
lessened perceptibly. That, however
is all water over the dam, and hai
no bearing on him as a 1924 Lresi
Dental possibility, which admitted!
he is.
