LONDON’S FUTURE
“GREATER THAN ITS PAST”
RUGBY, July 14. London, for all its recent trials by fire and explosive, 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 long-term project and would occupy the energies of at least two generations of men. He stressed the need for Londoners, including those still at school and those serving overseas, to appreciate both the difficulties and great 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, and unless they were encouraged to search out present and future needs and frame in their imagination a picture of what the great community might become, London would never be all they wished her to be.
