Council 10 Advise
City Planners Named
By Urban Institute

Realizing that the character of
future American cities is dependent
to a marked degree on the quality
OF residential communities which
are being created, the Urban Land
Institute has established a Com
munity Builders Council under the
craftsmanship of j. c. Nichols of
Kansas City. The primary purpose
OF this council is to make, available
the broad practical experience of
outstanding developers to all those
interested in sound city growth.
Mr.. Nichols is well known in
Washington as member of the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission.
Trend Is Indicated.
An initial meeting of the Com
munity Builders Council just con-
cluded at Columbus, Ohio, indicates
a trend in land development which
will influence the future character
of cities. AS postwar program,
the council recommends that real
estate operators, financial institu-
tions, city planning commissions
and groups interested in the i'm
provement of urban conditions
stimulate interest in the develop
ment of well balanced neighbor-
hoods rather than permitting the
continuation Of haphazard con-
struction of small isolated groups of
dwellings.
1t is explained that a balanced
neighborhood should provide for
recreational facilities, churches,
schools, we'll laid-out shopping CEN
ters and a careful blending of dwell
ings in the various price ranges,
both for the home owner as we'll as
for the tenant of rental property.
Further, in the councils discussion
it was clearly indicated that in order
to create successful projects of this
kind, broad, practical experience
in the development of real estate,
combined with a thorough knowl-
edge of markets and conditions, are
quite as essential as the services
provided by the land-planning tech
nician. 4
Expert Planners Important.
The importance of the participa-
tion Of the city planner or expert
planning consultant is not, council
members said, to be overlooked. 1t
was the opinion. however. that such
services, in order to be entirely ef-
fective, must be supplemented and
guided by many practical factors
and conditions outside the field of
physical planning
Members of the Community Build
ers' Council include small but
representative group of outstanding
real estate developers, who. because
of their experience and geographical
location, are particularly we'll in
formed on problems that face the
creator of new neighborhoods.
Frequent conferences of this group
are held, the next of which is sched-
uled for November in Chicago, when
q display of photographs of actual
developments, brochures and infor-
national pamphlets is planned.

Postwar kitchens will have less Of

Better Homes Department. Top
shelves which will be easy to reach,
definite places for a radio, table

kitchen features. The combination
is expected to give an effect Of

Designed to lift the American
people out Of the depression and
give work to millions who were in

1888, the two agencies became the
storm centers Of controversy.
On the one hand, claimed pro-
ponents, there was the greatest pro-

to make work for its millions of
hungry jobless. On the other; were
all the charges of "boondoggling, I"
