CITY OF FUTURE IS REVEALED BY ENGINEER

°opulation of 700,000 and Wide Through Streets Are Part of Prediction Made by Consultant of Plan Commission. COUNCIL WILL HEAR MORE DETAILS SOON Louis W. Bruck Says Indianapolis Is Well Suited for Scientific Survey—Favors Restricting Heights of Business Buildings. By Eugene Cadou Indianapolis, with 700,000 population, streets ninety feet wide running the entire length of the city, north and south and east and west at intervals of one-half mile! Sounds like a dream. But it is practical prediction, based on past history. It should materialize in twenty-five years, according to Louis W. Bruck, consulting engineer for the city plan commission. “Indianapolis lends itself better to scientific planning for the future than any other large city in the country,” Bruck said. "If we agree to a definite program and that schedule is followed in all future improveme its undertaken, there In no reason why this city should suffer from congestion and haphazard living conditions as do older municipalities where development has be' n left to chance.” Favors Restriction Bruck favors restriction of building heights so that the business district may be expanded horizontally Instead of vertically.. Statistics reveal that only through this method may the city be saved from the cost of building subways or elevated railroads, he said. The thoroughfare plan, which is now under consideration by the city uouncil, outlines a comprehensive program for widening and developing streets and boulevards, so that the city may expand scientifically, according to Bruck. It is planned to include the next twenty-five years. Washington St. would have a minimum width of ninety-feet throughout its entire length. No Airplane Provisions Although the normal growth in the number of automobiles has been considered in drafting the plan, no provisions have been made for airplanes, Bruck said, because landing fields must be located outside the corporation limits. City planners have assumed that street car lines and bus companies will not compete on the same streets in drafting the thoroughfare plan, Bruck said. City council members will be guests of the plan commission June 11 at the Indianapolis Athletic Club, where further details will be outlined. Action on the proposal is scheduled at the next regular council meeting, June 15. Bruck will explain details of the plan to members of the civis affairs committee of Chamber of Commerce at a luncheon Friday.

FINAL TRIBUTE PAID MARSHALL (Continued From Page 1) they do for others rather than for what they do for themselves.” “I shall not attempt at this time to review the conspicuous public service he rendered to this State and to the nation. That will be attended to in due time by those who can deal with it more adequately than I. It is my high privilege, however, to speak of his Christian character, because Mr. Marshall was first of all a Christian. He had a firm and steadfast faith in the Eternal God. He was an open and avowed disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. He did not parade his faith, neither did he conceal it. In every high position of trust that he held, it might be said of him that he was not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ. His piety was that of principle rather than of emotion. “It was too much occupied with conduct to have any surplus energy for display. He accepted the Scriptures as the infalliable rule of faith and life. “He understood the Bible as ftw men do. In recent years the book was his constant companion.

upon him In his home some two weeks ago I found him with the Bible in his hand. The summons of the Master came to him as he was reading a passage from the book. “Mr. Marshall was ever loyal to his church. He could enter heartily into the singing of that old hym: ‘I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord, the house of Thine abode, the church our biest Redeemer saved, with His own precious blood.’ " “Only illness or absence from the city prevented his attendance upon the service of worship. He was always sympathetic and encouraging in his attitude, always ready and generous with his support. The beautiful ring service was given by Geake, and Mr. Marshall’s Masonic ring was presented to Mrs. Marshall In acordance with the customs of thirty-third degree Masons. At the funeral the State, nation, and various political, civic and legal organizations werei represented.
