One primary trouble is that with all their unreadinir firrowth the country's largest communities still draw far too many people into their downtown areas and established industrial sectors. With the rise in population and the gain in motor traffic, this continued centering heart of of activity in the a is smothering human the city imposing well-develop- ed load on streets, sidewalks, transportation facilities, terminals, office buildings and other focal points of downtown life. As has been pointed out by many urban experts, most measures designed to relieve this human congestion only make it worse. Anything that makes it easier to get out.of the city's center also makes it easier to get in. The only real cure is to develop competremoved ing magnets of attraction well But section. downtown clotted the from these probably ought tq be planned on a much more drastic scale than most cities are, contemplating seriously today.

The Spanish proposal, long advocated by the U.

Political opinion in British Labor circles, he said, was adamant against Dictator Franco. , So the Spanish proposal was dropped.
