City planning was introduced as one of the constructive meas-| ures to prevent racial decline. In France, largely for the same reason, a national law has been passed, compelling every city of over 10,000 inhabitants to have a city Thus city planning is one of the great social democratic movements in the interest of the majority. ttle has today the opportunity, not only to protect the happiness and prosperity of her citizens, bu: also to keep abreast with the other Great cities of the world. e THE MUNICIPAL LEAGUE OF SEATTLE » Schemer has invented an scicmesinaddintidias 8 refrigerator.” | , but that’s heartless!

To the Editor: Whenever any progress is proposed in society, the vileged classes always try to flag the procession with the skirts of poor widow. This old lady ia sadly overworked in all ages. When it was pro- Posed to abolish the hellish slave commerce in Great Britain and this €ountry, the poor widew, with her little all invested in a siave ship, ‘Was paraded before parliament and congress in all her misery and tears. Behind her thin skirts bid thousands of smug end respectable Capitalists engaged in the traffic that left ten murdered negroes on Africa's sands or fed to ocean sharks for every wretched being finally pat tp work on the plantation. the abolitionist preached human rights, the owners of 4,000, 000 slaves hid behind those same black alpaca skirts of the poor widow, end drove her ig, tears before the American people to play for more time nd the confiscation of more wealth from the unrequited toil of those happy and contented chattels. Now the poor widow is weeping again. She is the one we must pro- tect from the wicked single taxets. She has invested all her millions fim Seattle real estate. Probably what she had invested in 1860 in black African slaves. We are told of the poor widow owning a humble home Mext to a 24-story skyscraper and earning her living with needle or washb- tub. The fact that such a lot would be worth from $5,000 to $16,000 @ front foot does not disturb the friends of this poor widow. The fact that such a widow is always found to have money to burn, and often turns out to be a gentleman with a very big ax to grind on the public's ptone never worries the friends of the poor widow.
