Lack of adequate transit and trans portation facilities is one of the chief causes of congestion, says G. A. Fonl in the American City. . With no good means of going to and from the heart of the city people are forced to remain In the near vicinity of their work, and In this connection we use the word "adequate" advisedly, for it is perfectly possible for a subway to be so placed that Its operation tends to Increase rather than decrease conges tion. , . ' Again, congestion often appears as a result of the lack of adequate city regulations with regard to open space, sunlight, etc. These regulations would differ In different communities, but the smaller community must be care ful not to adopt .standards for these things such as bare been adopted by the greatest cities, as this often tends to incite builders In the smaller com munities to aie the Intolerable condi tions prevalent in the greater cities. .Speculation in land, due to ithe de sire of each individual to get te max imum possible return on his holdings,' this return often being out of jail pro portion to anything that thj owner himself has done to bring it about, probably accounts more than anything else for the worst phases of (Conges tion. .. . That congestion has a marked effect on health no one can donbt Its tend ency is to crowd tenements so closely together that a good circulation of air or the admission of sunlight Into liv ing rooms becomes impossible. The rooms are dark. The air in the nar row slits of shafts and wells becomes stagnant and foul There Is no incen tive to self respect on the part of the dwellers in these hovels. The shafts become a receptacle for the constantly s Increasing accumulation of garbage. Tt Is nobody's business to see that it is cleared ont . The Merchant.
