THE FUTURE LONDON
PLANKING EVEN IN WAR (Rec. noon.) RUGBY, July 14. London, for all its recent trials by fire and explosives, still had the vitality and .courage to plan for a future greater than the past, the Minister, of Town and Country Planning, Mr Morrison, said when opening an exhibition of the County of London plan. The scheme exhibited, he said, was a longterm project which would occupy the energies of at least two generations of men. He stressed the need for Londoners, including those stil lat school and those serving overseas, to appreci r ate both the difficulties and the gerat opportunities of the plan. Unless they understood the components of the problem, some of which were rooted in long history and others still veiled by the mists of the cloudy future, unless they were encouraged to search out present and future needs, and to frame in their imagination a picture of what a great community might become, London would never be all they wished her to be.'
