“After the war, we in Britain want to locate our industries with an eye to the consequences,” said Mr George W. Cadbury in a recent address. “We don’t want to expand our already overgrown cities, nor create new communities with all the old defects. For where we locate the factories determines where the homes will be, because nearness to our daily work is an essential consideration in choosing a place to live. The bombs are levelling our old cities, and as a fireman I have seen a bit of that process at rather too close quarters to be comfortable at times. In my view there’s got to be a lot more levelling, not only of old slums and buildings, but of outworn institutions, too. I should like to see more people starting at the bottom, and a better opportunity and more security for the majority than there has ever been before.”
