Turkey is used as an example of the urbanization problem in a developing society. Few studies of accelerated urbanization & associated soc re-org have been conducted & few S's of att's have been associated with econ planning. Mechanization of agri must occur if the country is to compete successfully, & the individuals so displaced must develop new skills, subordinate themselves to a boss, cooperate with a group, & shift their residence out of the village. These changes also mean investment in adult educ & training, housing, & other Ur facilities. The author theoretically develops that $2.3 billion are needed to assimilate a farm machinery investment of $200 million. Unemployment, Ur slums, shortages, & inflation result when the required sums are unavailable. The actual size of the Ru/Ur shift in Turkey is shown from the % increase of city dwellers 1950-1955, & increase in rail & highway passenger traffic. As a result of this increase official figures show 22% of Ur families living in a single room & an increase in squatter's shacks. Figures showing expenditures for expansion of streets & property acquisition, an increase in the number of water & power customers, food prices which have increased 6-7% per yr also support the conclusions with regard to the effects of not supporting mechanization. Inflation is a function of rapid urbanization & the changing pattern of consumption implied by this process. The Turkish gov has located industry close to displaced workers, but they prefer the Ur risks. attitude res might also indicate how well the soc security system & labor code are working. A Minister of Reconstruction & Settlement is surveying community needs in housing & public services, but the emphasis is on demographic & econ rather than human factors. More attention given to urbanization as a function of accelerated econ development might prevent the pol'al instability which often follows the soc disintegration. J. D. Twight.
