The landscape architects greatest

member of the National Commission
of Fine Arts, says in symposium OF
the American Institute of Architects on

so long as only the aristocratS, the
princes of the church and the princess
of the state were the ones who desired
open spaces outside of congeSted areas, "
declares Mr. Vitale, 'the type of land
scape development was bound TO be-
come one suitable for pomp and
splendor.
Necessity Realized.
"But when masses of people in a
democratic community realized the
necessity Of these same open spaces, it
was not for pomp and splendor that
they wished them: 1t was to afford re-
lief to the congestion of the cities.
They wished to forget formality. and
all the elements of structures an6 build
ings by which they were surrounded. :"
Landscape architecture, youngest of
the professions, is, in its modern sense,
a direct product of industrialism, of
the desires of people to escape from the
confines of the city, according to Mr..
VitaIe.

Plan Proposed for Capital Put
Into Force by Canadian
City.

Regulation Of the appearance Of pri-
vate as we'll as public buildings pro-
poSaf which Congress at the past
session was urged to adopt for the
District of Coiimbia--has been put into
effect in the City of Quebec.
The Canadian city Is applying the
Drinciple that there are amenities in
architecture and that violation of them
is an offense against the community
which the community has legal right
10 prohibit.
Complete Control.
Complete control over the architec-
ture as well as over the location and
height of buildings, public and private,
TO be erected in the City of Quebec
is given to the new Quebec Town Plan
ming Commission. created by a far
seeing provincial bill which has just
been passed.
The commission is given not only the
right to pass on proposed structures
from the standpoint of neighborhood
architectural harmony. but is also given
fun power to replan those parts of the
city that have suffered from what has
been characterized as building anarchy.
The Quebec measure is said to
register a public reaction against III
manners In building" through which
e'new structures have been fung up
any where and every where in barba-
rous disregard of architectural amenity
and the right Of the community"

rance of buildings located on any high
wav to which the act applies, making
regulations as to their design and con-
stTuction.
California cities are given the power
70 control the architecture OF private
structures planned to be erected in
their boundaries under the wording of
the States planning act of 1927, and IN
some instances they are already exer-
cising such powers. the National Asso-
citation of Real Estate Boards reports.
Great Britain has town planning act
which gives power to local authority
TO prescribe the character Of buildings.
A number of cities, notably Edinburgh
and Bath, have interpreted the clause
to mean community control over the
design of buildings as well as over suit
ability Of their location.

SHIFT APPRAISAL PLAN.
Baltimore Realty Board Adopts
New Valuation System.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, July 28.-An improved
plan for making real estate appraisals
has been adopted by the directors of the
Real Estate Board of Baltimore.
Under the new system, 1t is said, an
appraisal will represent the reconciled
opinion of at least six men, rather than
the agreed verdict of one or two APP
praisers. and will afford property own
ers the services Of men generally rec
ognized as experts in determining
realty values.
The proposal would provide special
committee of three men to inspect
property and report their findings to
the appraisal review committee. con-
sisting of five of the best known ex-
perts on real estate values in Balu-
more.
If these men are satisfied that the
report of the special committee is cor
rect they viii then issue a certificate
showing the value of the property. The
review committee will serve the board
without compensation.
The proposed plan must be approved
by the general membership of the Real
Estate Board before 1t becomes effective.
