Survey's indicate that an average of 35.4 per cent of the developed land in the 33 cities is devoted to residential use; 4.1 per cent is in com mercial use;11.4 per. cent in industrial use; 18.8 per cent to public and semi-public use; and 30.3 per cent to street right-ofcway. The study indicates consid erable variation in the land use of different cities. Areas in use for industrial purposes, at the time the bureau con ducted the survey, ranged from 0.7 per cent to 35.4 per acres of residential land per different cities. Commercial land uses ranged from 0.2 per cent to 12.4 per cent. The survey also showed an average of .4 acres of de veloped land for every 100 persons in the 33 cities. This included an average oi .a acres of residendial land per 100 person, 4.2 acres of street rightof-way, 2.6 acres of pub lic and semi-public land, 1.6 acres of industrial land, and 0.57 acres of commercial land. Detailed Information. The study, which includes detailed information on the 33 cities, covered city sizes from Columbia City to Eu gene. The information for 31 of the cities was gathered by the bureau in connection with studies carried out during the three and a half year federal program of urban planning as sistance. Private planning con sultants provided the infor mation on two cities. The information has been compiled and anlayzed to pro vide background information for city planning commissions and city councils in establish ing and modifying zoning re strictions. However, the re port points out that the com pilation should not be regard ed as "providing a standard that can safely be followed in making decisions with ref erence to zoning. The tabula tions reveal wide differences in land use in different cities. These differences reflect such factors as the economic base of the city, the period and rate of growth, location in relation to other urban cen ters, and the extent and na ture of fringe development."

Patterns Cities ed to residential and com mercial use and street right of way. However, there is less relationship between popula tion and industrial land use, partly because some indus tries tend to locate just out side of cities. The land use information relates entirely to land within city boundaries. There is also little correlation between pop ulation and the amount of land In public use, partly be cause political and geograph ical considerations vary from city to city. Weather FORECASTS .
