Cooperation Is Called Keynote
OF Effective City Planning
suIIvon's Suggestions for Reorganization
Of Park Commission Declared Sound

(the city council. or in Washington,
the Congress and its appropriate
committee) to do certain things in
. new way-such ~ these, for ex-
ample:
/. Direct . department head to
consult the planning agency when
ever . project he has In mind in
any way Is likely to require co-or-
dination with the city layout as .
whole and with those services and
facilities which are intrusted to the
Jurisdiction Of others.
z. Forbid the department head to
proceed, forbid him to spend the
public money for expensive studies
and plans until, by amiable and
patient preliminary conference,
either his proposed project has been
made to At the overall plan Of the
community or that overall plan has
been successfully rearranged and
mutual adjustment With the new
project has been accomplished.
Preventing Loss Of Time.
This kind Of suggestion may en-
rage . martinez or An ofncial with
moro shrewdness than wisdom. He
viii complain Of delay, Of lost time.
The answer TO that Is that there
need be no loss Of time in the entire
period required to finish Z project,
II time wisely spent In the begin
ming clears out Of the way the causes
for wastage Of time, and money,
later.
The chief executive must. on the
other hand, be assured that his
planning agency has been 50 fully
equipped to do its job (Which Mr..
Sullivan so well outlineO that the
department head who Is 20 reluctant
to cooperate can in turn secure the
help which the planning agency Is
supposed to give him. We some
times forget that always 1t takes at
least two to cooperate!
Departments and the conduct Of
departmental functions should be
dynamic. not static, not embalmed.
This applies equally to the planning
agency. To appease an intelligent
citizen demand for . planning
agency by creating An Instrumental
ity which cannot function compe-
tently and efnciently-because Of the
lack Of proper authoritative tntegra-
ton with = dynamic administration.

Mr.. Haak was born In Germany
and came to the United States with
his parents when 3 years old. Later.
he was sent to Toledo (Ohio) Or
phan home, where he was reared.
In 1908 he enlisted In the Army and

or because Of lack Of sta6 and
funds-such appeasement soon re-
veals itself to the public, and It
should not be tolerated. Those who
thwart effective and sound planning
are apt to be among the severest
critics Of . planning agency.
legislative Cooperation
It Is q cute and common trick Of
the bureaucrat to try to befuddle
the legislator who is trying to help
do constructive public job. I men
ton this only because there Is just
as much need for cooperation be-
tween executive departments and
the legislative body with respect to
certain matters as there Is for inter-
departmental cooperation.
II . legislative body q city coun-
ell, or even perhaps the Congress)
is persuaded to set up temporary
agencies to do 4 Job which should
either be done by . planning agency
or should be integrated with the
planning agency's essentially rele-
want activity, then more and better
confusion" Is the result.
Or, II q special job is assigned to
an existing agency without an ac-
companying mandate that its exc
cution shall be effected through gen.
uine cooperation. and 80 rs to Sc
cure the coordination that the
character of the enterprise requires,
In such cases good intentions un-
wisely implemented will be less pro-
ductive Of good results.
The points that have been made
here are applicable, II at all. wher-
ever human beings have jobs to do
that are not clear cut and that in
volve adjustments among persons
whose special tasks would be per-
formed better II correlated one with
another.
A hurried or careless reader will
err II he accepts these generaliza-
tions without question IS II they
were the only things to be consid-
cred. The great wonder Is that
planning agencies have been able to
do Is much constructive work as
they have done and that many de-
partmental ofncials have both the
competence and the flexibility to CO.
operate wisely and well.
For better fulfillment of the func-
tions that . planning agency might
perform in the public interest, 1t
would be wise to build on that which
already has been demonstrated TO be
good. And much really Is good.
II, In this present article, more
has been said about administration
than about planning, 1t Is because
both must be improved. And. too
often, one fears to discuss admins
tration as frankly as one might, lest
there be those who will interpret
Evening star., 1942-03-29

the discussion - . personal attack
or the expression Of . jaundiced
temper.
In conclusion, I should like to
express admiratio for the policy Of
. newspaper which Is concerned to
show its readers not alone the faults
Of public activities, but also some
thing OF the dimculties which con-
front those who try to render intel
ligent and competent public service.
