Charlottesvilie, Va. Economic
pluning In fields ranging from Fed
eral Government activities to or
ganised labor in the South were ad
vocated today and yesterday by
speakers at the University of Virginia
Institute of Public Affairs here.
"A plan for everything and every
thing in i's plan" appeared to he the
slogan of sneakers following the key
note sounded by Franklin I). Roose
velt, Governor of New York, who de
clared here at the beginning of the
week that waste in this country has
run into billions of dollars because
of the lack of systematic fore
thought. The first step toward a national
economic program might well be the
formation of a research staff to co
ordinate the activities of the Federal
Government, Charles W. Kliot 2d.,
member of the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, suggested
to the regionalism round table. Sepa
rate national agencies are at present
carrying out railroad waterway,
highway, airway, power and land
policies which may or may not be
consistent with each other, he point
ed out.
"Through the reclamation bu
reau." he said, "new farm areas are
reclaimed, while through the farm j
board, farmers are urged to restrict
their planting."
There would be value, Mr. Eliot
believes, in a research staff with
authority to collect data and place
the facts before interested agencies
and the public until Congress and
the administration adopt some co
ordinated national program.
Differ on Regional Planning
A discussion of methods in region
al planning showed a diversity of
view among the planning experts. A
paper prepared by Ernest P. Good
rich, consulting engineer, of New
Rork, advocated a statistical engin
eering method of determining a reg
ion's future needs in homes, streets,
schools and parks, by studving of
population curves.
Mr. Kliot and others contended, on
the other hand, that cities must not
be built on the basis of curves and
graphs, but a continuation of their
past in a way which the public can
understand.
"Men build houses and cities, not
according to graphs, but according
to sentiment." Mr. Eliot declared.
Henry Wright, architect and town
planner of New York, held that a
statistical method of planning is de
pendable only within periods which
are fairly homogeneous economical
ly and socially. He pointed to in
stances in New York City which
made it necessary to deviate from
predictions of a purely satistical
type.
"The size of city connot be deter
mined by a superficial area to be
filled; it is related to the institutions
and functions to be served. Lewis
Mumford, architect of Long Island
City, N. Y., told the round table this
morning. Mr. Mumford forecast that
the region will again become the cen
ter of organized intelligence as it was
in the Middle Ages and will prove
itself greatly superior to the merely
metropolitan area of today.
"The new regional pattern will be
a constellation of related cities, sep
arated by parks and permanent agri
cultural areas, and united for com
mon projects by a regional author
ity," Mr. Mumford declared. "Each
city." he explained, "would have all
the local institutions necessary to its
own effective life such as shops,
schools, theaters and churches, and
in addition each center would per
haps tend to specialize on some one
institution of culture or social life.
a museum ot natural history in one
center, a radio broadcasting station
in another, a university in a third."
Transportation Changes Need
Modern transportation and com
munication remove the , necessity for
continuous urbanization, he pointed
out, adding that without such a pat
tern as this "it is impossible to do
away with the congestion of the
central districts and our present
waste of resources in providing tem
porary palliatives for this conges
tion. The region, he concluded, is
the natural human grouping.
A definite plan for raising the
standards of living of southern in
dustrial workers was urged at the in
dustrialism round table by R. T. Bow
den of the Virginia Federation of
Labor, who asserted that in the rise
of southern industrialism wage earn
ers have gone backward.
Wage earners of the South, Mr.
Bowden declared, must be permitted
to organize into labor unions with
programs and policies or they will
eventually organize into some com
bination not so reasonable and fair
in its accomplishments.
"If any part of a group of people
working together do not know what
they are going to do and how they
are going to do it, sooner or later
they block the whole undertaking,"
he added. "This is what happens
when wage earners are not planning
their next step in prosperity and
social progress. The choice lies with
the management of industry."
Thomas L. Chadbourne, addressing
the institute last night, explained the
"Chadbourne plan" which crystal
lized two months ago into the inter
national agreement between seven
great sugar exporting nations. Mr.
Chadbourne forecast that the effect
of the agreement, which provides for
the segregation of sugar supplies and
the restriction of output, supplies
and the restriction of output, will be
to restore the industry to normal.

Advocates of collective leadership
in each industry are the worst ene
mies of the Bolshevists, he corn lull
ed. The rise of unemployment in Great
Britain has heen sharply checked
and slight falls recorded. Ben Bowen
Thomas, warden, of College Harlech,
in north Wales, told last night's
audience, concluding a review of un
employment in post-war Britain. Mr.
Thomas divided his country's unem
ployment into three sections: that
to which auy industrially specialized
country is prone, that of an abnormal
post-war period, and that which has
arisen since 1929. Of the present
2.000,000 males unemployed in Great
Britain, he attributed about 400,000
to normal causes, GOO. 000 to causea
peculiar to post-war Britain, and
1.000.000 to world causes.
