YARDS CLEANUP
MOVEMENT IS
BEGUN
Real Estate Boards Division
. Has Worked Out
Plan

A national movement for clean
ing up the unsightly ''backyards"
Of cities which they exhibit to
travellers along railroad right'of-
ways has been inauguarted by the
Industrial Division Of the National
Association Of R@A Estate Boards.
The futthering Of the plan for
eliminating Objectionable rubbish
in the great industrial tracts OF
cities, as these tracts are traverged
by passenger carrying lines. will be
made a feature Of the coming day
convention Of specialists in indus
trial real estate Of the United
States and Canada, which viii be
held as part Of the National As
sociation's seventeenth annual con.
vention in. Washington, June , to 8.
Industrial commissioners Of all
railroads in the United States will
cooperate with the industrial real.
tors in the cleanup campaign. Com
mercial associations and civic or
Ranizations in the cities will be
asked to take an active part in
making the right-of-way outlook
represent their cities fairly to the
travelling public.
Appalling neglect that industries
throughout the country. especially
in the smaller communities, give to
that part of their properties visible
from the right Of way Is emphasized
by the division in outlining its pro-
gram. The exposure Of piles Of
ashes, rubbish and junk Is no way
to build up interest in the cOmmun'
ity on the part Of passers through
the town who might become per.
manent residents. the division con
tends.
Together with the cleanup cam
paign the division calls attention to
the desirability Of enabling the
traveller to identify easily the town
through which he is passing.
Intercity exchange Of business In
Industrial real estate is another
matter which the division IL study.
ing and which will come before the
convention. Joseph Kramer, Day.
ton, Ohio, IL chairman Of the com.
mlttee which IL developing the
possibilities In such an interchange.
The division is also studying the
best ways OF developing the Indus.
trial districts Of cities. as they have
found practicable in the planting
OF great industrial tracts.
