Ben. II think New York Is one Of

"The real trouble Is that these
visitors only look for what you
see. OF course, you can find rude
ness and jazz and wild spots If
you look for them. You can do
that almost anywhere-eVen in a
dinky little country town. But the
trouble is that New YOrk's visitors
seem to feel that what they see is
New York.
.'They come and see the neurotic,
blazing, seamy side, CLEANED from
trips TO the sO-called night-life Sec
items. They rush around looking
for excitement-and they find it,
of course. But they never take u
. quiet trip through the streets
where hundreds of thousands of
families are living as quietly and
respectfully and peacefully as in
any other city in the world. They
fail TO get out to the parks, where
the children are plenty and their
play Is amid surroundings of
beauty. They take a bus ride
down through the crowded East
Side district and see there chill
dren in Che streets, and then go
home and declare that all the chill
dren live like that. But, after all,
only a small portion of New York
