Ur life is rapidly imposing itself upon the vast majority of the world's pop. This push toward the cities & their suburbs is characteristic of our era in industrialized societies. To attempt to turn this flow away from the large cities is to oppose the econ & soc history of the cent. Future urbanization will be entirely diff from urbanization in the past. The role of the city will be carried out by gov'al bur's, laboratories, leisure time activities, & to a much lesser extent by industry. There will then be cooperation rather than conflict between city & country. There will eventually be cities with a much more diffused pop as opposed to the present dense concentrations of people. The role of the Ur dweller in the society will be extensively revised, esp in its pol'al aspects. There is at present a conflict between admin'ive or pol'al forces on one side & the need for the integration of the real interests of the community on the other. 2 problems are in particular need of resolution: that of labor legislation, which must take into account white-collar workers, & that of city budgets. This is esp apparent in countries with regions devoted entirely to agri. The conflict between regions can have serious pol'al consequences: the persistence of traditional structures contains grave dangers & pol'al intervention in this crisis would, rather than harm, facilitate the development of modern urbanism.
