THE OREGON STATESMAN,' SALEM, OREGON SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 23, 1924 Stimulation of Growth in City Is Purpose of YOU CAN AFFORD THIS HOME ISA All Zoning Ordinances 4hSr 4 :. ,,. 1 V , ,' ; j ' i ; ' ' - ; , '(Information for this article! compiled from the Zoning Primer, Issued by the Department of Com merce, Washington, D. C) i; i i . i . Zoning has a comparatively broad scope and i3 best obtained by using maps of the city, dividing the. city into different kinds of districts;, a statement of methods of regulation to be employed in each' district in regard to the use to which property may be put; the height and sire of buildings; amount of space to be left vacant with, adequate provisions for en forcement ; 7 In the process of drafting a ten tative ordinance it is Important to be sure that the ordinance is an "application of common sense and fairness" and. will "provide each district as nearly as practicable withVjust such protection and just such liberty as are sensible in that particular district." It is essen tial, likewise to be sure that public opinion, as a whole, will support it- . In speaking of zoning in actual operation, tjhe primer states that a toning ordinance is of value only as it is properly enforced. Be cause of the difficulty in making with precision the forecasts on which it is based, its operation should be closely followed by hde who most intimately under Hand the reasons for its provi sions. Thus, improvements and adjustments may from time to time be made intelligently. It is to furnish in exceptional cases a means for remedying possible in iustice that, in some states, pro vision Is made for a board of ad justment or appeals. It U obvious from the nature of the case that.l even if a zoning ordinance were drawn with super human perfection, time and the latural growth of the community night show the need of modifica tion. The purpose of a zoning ordinance is not! to stifle growth. ut only to insure that instead of aking place sporadically and vastefully It shall be n in an "orderly way, in response to gener ally recognized jneeds and with due notice to all concerned. illlES 6116 ! aiy COMPLETED If-WJireS Entirely Ready; for : Occupancy By the First 'Day of December I'-,- Afork on the fine new two story building. being erected by the John Ilu&hes company on &he corner of HigHand Ferry streets.

While achieving home ownership Is a large undertaking, too many shrink from it. thinking It Is en tirely beyond them.
