It is equally foolish for US to dream of
rebuilding all our cities stone by stone accord
ing to some master plan.
If sUe sUOrk fast, however, OUR cities can
still be Saved and made more attractive
and Efficient than eUer. Throughout the
country members of the National Association
of Real Estate Boards are working with local
groups to put into effect a five-point plan:
Already in some cities results are beginning
to show. As you read the following five step
program, think of the proposals in terms of
yourself and your community. If they make
sense to you perhaps you and your neighbors
can help spark movements which will push
local civic agencies = real-estate boards,

Al states. Everywhere went asked large
numbers of people, How do you think we can
save our cities?" encountered two types of
expert" opinions:
why bother saving them?" some shrugged.
Let's give them back to the Indians!' They
thought it would be simple to abandon our
decaying municipal wrecks and move to the
suburbs. Others recommended: Tear every
thing down and start over again.
Few practical-minded real-estate men agree
with either find it hard to believe anyone
can seriously suggest that we can afford to
junk our cities We can hardly write off our
400 billion dollars worth of privately owned
city real estate. And what about all the
museums Libraries, churches, hospitals and
other institutions, that would have to be left

In half the time. and at less than half the
cost needed for new housing, many Of the
slums and nearly all the semi-slums in cur
major cities can be made comfortable, safe
and sanitary.
True, the end product will not look like
something of city planner's drawing board,
but one handsome, streamlined new apart
ment building doesn't thrill me half 20 much
as 10 blocks Of intelligently rehabilitated
homes where thousand families have found
new comfort and happiness on a, true low
cost basis.
Unlike slum clearance. rehabilitation or
"slum curance" doesn't cali for elaborate
