''The Future OF Our Cities
Will Be Up For Discussion
AT Real Estate Convention
BY SAM DAWSON


NEW YORK IA blight threat.
ems many American cities today.
II Is the blight Of areas being al
lowed 70 run down rather than be-
ing renewed and repaired as was
normal practice in former years.
Merchants are feeling the loss
Of sales as their middle-income
customers take 10 the flourishing
suburbs. Real estate values and
income slip as WORKOUT areas
spread around the badly longest
ed central core Of many of our
cities. Municipal government costs
rise faster than tax revenues.
The future Of our cities" viii
be up for debate at the convention
OF the National Assn. Of Real Es-
tate Boards next month in Los
Angeles.
Many city fathers find that de-
terioration seems to gain speed
ct the same time that their metro
politan areas are mushrooming.
Stun clearance ard pubic hous-
Ing projects have feIped, but they
haven't halted the tendency in re-
cent years TO let property run
down. And the middle income fam
lilies which once lived just beyond
the business districts have largely
been ignored In postwar city con-
struction.
The Twentieth Century Fund, q
nonprofit foundation for scientific
research and public education, put
Miles L. Colean, q city planning
consultant, to work on the prob
lem. The fund today publishes his
report, Renewing Our Cities, !"
pointing out many reasons why
cities are being biigkted.
Traffic congestion Is growing
steadily worse and strangely
enough driving people farther
away from the business district.
Rings Of suburbs around most cit.
les drain resources without reduc-
Ing the load on downtown services.
The postwar housing shortage
led to lax enforcement of housing
regulations-on the theory that a
slum dwelling was better than
none. Strict enforcement, Colean
says, Is needed now to end the
probability Of slums.
He also cites the low rate Of
return on money invested in new
construction In recent years as
having turned away needed CAPT.
tai. Shifting some Of the local tax
load off real estate could help the
investor, he adds.
And. he also notes that in many
cities red tape, long delays in all
dealings with local authorities, and
the consequent loss Of income on
tied-up funds harass large inves-
tors undertaking housing projects.
The first essential In attacking
this problem, Coleau holds, is to
decide what kind of city is want
ed. Effective city planning then
can be tried.
Modern street and throughway
systems, control of population den-
sity to solve the traffic problem,
intelligent zoning If functions be-
tween the central core and the
dispersed sections, should be taken
up on a timed schedule.
Colean also would like to see
laws and ordinances revised, mod
ernized and simplihed He urges
that investment in new housing or
In repairs be encouraged and a
way found to share the financial
burdens between cities and their
bedroom suburbs.
And he puts in word, too, for
better police protection and better
schools within the city rather than
just In the suburbs.
