Toronto Metro
Has a Lesson
BY ROBERT J. LEWIS
Reel Estots Editor Of The StcF

City. Kalamazoo, New York
or Washington.
The fact that Toronto pre-
sents to the world Is all the
more remarkable when you
find that 1t is going through
q period Of social and eco
nomic change this Is truly
immense.
For one thing. the charac-
ter Of its population has
changed fully as much as
that Of any United States
city, bringing with 1t differ
ent influences than those
rather ingrown. stuffy and
somewhat unprogressive ones.
that prevailed before the end
Of World War II.
Fostest Grower
Toronto is reported to be
the fastest growing city or
the North American CONT
nent, and it certainly must
have many serious problems
of adjustment. To the ad-
mittedly unexpert observer,
its wage rates are low and its
living costs are high. Thirty
six years ago, Rupert Brooke,
the English poet. wrote 1.-THE
eternal product Of plutocracy,
a nice sensible, secure,
steady-going religious-mind-
ed plutocracy."
To the American visitor.
this seems to be a fairly ap-
propriate description today.
on a relative basis, but 1t is
not the way progressive To-
ronto views itself at all.
Two wars and the postwar
flood of immigration have
washed away many Of those
unlovely aspects of Toronto's
character. A newcomer to
Toronto recently wrote in q
publication here 1.-The new
corners, whether their last
address was Hamburg or
Halifax, had to stake out
their own place in this city.
In the process, they made it
a different place"
Different place 1t certainly
is, on the basis Of other evil
dence too. One Polish mer-
chant told US he had to
change his name when he
first established his place Of
business here, so strong was

TORONTO, Nov. 14.-One
Of the big by-products Of the
convention here this week Of
the National Association Of
Real Estate Boards was the
opportunity delegates had to
learn some Of the lessons To-
ronto can teach to many
other American cities.
This is a practical. progress
sive, down-to-earth, "no-non-
sense" city that. even to q
casual observer, operates on q
scale Of efficiency. courtesy
and cleanliness that is an
eye-opener for the average
citizen Of the United States.
The convention headquar-
tiers hotel, the Royal York.
has 1000 rooms and is the
biggest in the British Com
monwealth. Yet delegates al
most without exception said
that, in treatment to detail,
smoothneSs of operation, and
gracious treatment to guests
it was far and away ahead Of
virtually any United States
convention hotel they had
ever visited, small or large.
The secret this hotel has is
shared. apparently. by the
city itself. And the secret
isn't just that Canadians are
uncommonly good and eff
cient people, for this hotels
work in many forms was
done by persons of highly di-
verse origins, coming here
from such places as the
Ukraine, Esthonia. Latvia,
France, Lithuania, Italy.
Scandinavia, Greece and Ru-
mania, to name just a few
whose native land we were
able to identify.
Secret Is Spirit
Instead, the secret appears
to be the spirit with which
Toronto seems to embrace
its citizens, old and new.
Go into a drug store for a
Coke or a cup of coffee and,
unfailingly, somebody on the
premises pays attention to
you, acknowledging that you
are there as a prospective
customer, and thanking you
for your order. Maybe this is
q small matter, and maybe it
means nothing, essentially,
but it is a refreshing change
for Americans from Kansas
