Pessimists may look into the future, and colour it with their own feats, but they do not appear to understand that we are in a period of transition and that the days of crowded cities are nearly over. If we are spared a war in which the cities may be wrecked, the Government will have to transport a large part of the urban populations out to the country, You can see this happening already to some extent in London, Paris, und New York, for the elty workers are spreading out further and further, and not into jerry-built suburbs either.

Hankow, Aug. 21. Seventeen Japanese heavy bombers, accompanied by pursuit planes, severely bombed Nanhu (South Lake), south of Wuchang at noon to-day.
Reuter's correspondent watched the raid from the East Lake and saw the bombers, flying in two close formations, drop sixty bombs in the South Lake district.
The number of casualties is not yet known, but scores of buildings were demolished and more than 40 wounded, some seriously, were taken to the American Sanatorium in Wuchang, where doctors, assistants and nurses are working feverishly to save as many lives as possible.- Reuter.
