NEXT WEEK

The way traffic is strangling our cities has been the subject of much controversy recently : so had has the situation become that even the Daily Mail has had to admit that there is only one solution, summed up in one word (a dirty word, it admits, to Conservatives): Planning.

But planning for what? and by whom? MALCOLM MACEWF.N has been investigating the many 'plans' that have been put forward since the turn of the century, and subjecting them to critical analysis in order to show why none of them achieved results and (what is more to the point) why 'planning' along present lines cannot achieve results. Mr. MacEwen's article on the subject will appear in the Spectator next week.
