Excerpt from Two Notable Addresses on Town Planning and Housing
True we are, at tremendous cost and sacrifice of energy. Busily engaged setting our cities in order whilst others, seeing nothing, hearing nothing, reading nothing. Oblivious to what has for generations been so patent. Are repeating our mistakes and laying up trouble which will tax to the uttermost the energies of their children.
