Not a shooting war, | but a battle between the city and the suburbs. And cities have a new confidence now after taking bad beatings for years. Says Boston Mayor John F. Collins: "We have found that many people who move to suburbia find it disturbia and realize they can't survive where collec- tion of garbage and refuse be- comes a luxury." Almost all major U.S. cities are giving the bum's rush to Skid Row and knocking the day- light into great blocks of con- gested, blighted areas. BRING EM BAC The purpose: The result of the "out migra-| tion" to the suburbs was a de-| terioration of downtown prop-| erties, empty buildings and| blighted housing areas, a loss of tax revenues, lagging depart- ment store sales, loss of busi- ness by restaurants and enter- tainment places, hotels going out of business. NIGHTLIFE GOES In the growth of suburbia many cities lost their nightlife.

ENTIRE SECTIONS GO | So, with the furious energy of a housewife at spring cleaning, many cities are sweeping en- tire sections clear of old houses, factories, garages as if they were attic junk The popular approach is to de- velop huge tracts, in effect to change the entire personality of an area rather than merely lift its face. These redeveloped areas then help improve other sections. In Detroit, city assessor Arthur Hinkley says about one- half the land downtown has de- creased in value over the past decade. "At the same time," he says, "construction of the new civic centre increased the value of some adjatent properties by about 200 per cent." "Particularly popular are civic, art and government cen tres." In Minneapolis the Gateway Centre is going up, in Rochester the Midtown Plaza, in St. Louis a huge sports stadium project Most residential construction |? seems aimed at making self sustained communities within the larger one, neighborhoods with homes, shops, churches, theatres and jobs. CANADIAN TRADE with the West Indies Federation and Australia has been ex- panding during the last eight years. Upper graph details total exports and imports since 1953 with the West Indies Federation. The trade balance has been mostly unfavorable for Canada with imports last year totalling $56,112,000 com- pared with exports of $39,532,- 000. The opposite applies in trade with Australia (lower graph). Canadian exports last year jumped 83 per cent to $98,862,000 while imports eased to $35,508,000, AIDS RESEARCH VANCOUVER (CP)--A health centre for children has been |? given a donation of $14,540 from a service club for re- search into three disturbances in mentally - re- {(tarded children and hereditary" diseases. subjects-- | {|breathing diseases, biochemical Sensational game highlights of the week, 2] Channel 9 Every Friday, 7:00 to 7:30 p.m. fi PLAY BY PLAY ............
