City Planning

The city planning movement has gained impetus n
Texas in recent months, and a recent survey indicates
tina, practically ell the major and many Of the smaller
cities Of the state have entered actively upon city plan
ming campaigns. In the past six months there has been
much overhauling Of musty city charters. amendments
and revisions have been suggested and voted, and on
tie whole. Texas municipalities are entering upon IN
era Of progressive development upon scientific lines
designed to meet future conditions.
Brownsville, Abilene and Galveston are among the
cities which have adopted street widening programs.
Corpus Christi, Waco. Fort Worth, Dallas, Texarkana.
Sherman and a score Of other cities have city planning
movements inaugurated or underway. From the Rto
Grsnde TO the Red river and from the Sabine to ri
Paso, Texas cities are making plans for progressive ds-
yelopment which will place the state n the leadership
or the south in this respect.
In many Of the cities adopting the plan programs.
the only criticism heard from those in authority is
that III. movement should have started earlier. Sur
veys have disclosed that huge sums Will he necessary
a correct errors OF the past; to provide wider streets
- accommodate modern traffic; to purchase park sites
sirports and the numerous requisites Of a modern city.
brownsville in adopting the street widening program
for the business section is taking the first step toward
correcting a condition which at some future date would
be virtually impossible to correct. But the city shouid
.v,.,d this rrorram 70 include .oping and planning
along the most modern lines. The city commissioners
have evidenced a very progressive attitude in this re-

rhich would be city-wide in its scope and which would
