First of three talks by Max Lock based on a recent R.I.B.A. lecture

No one denies the relative failure of town planning since the war to achieve its main object, a balanced environment. Is the Government as concerned with promoting more vigorous and imaginative physical planning as it is with the Deed for economic planning? Max Lock, known for his long series of town plans ranging from that for Middlesbrough in 1946 to that for Brentford this year, analyses the weaknesses in our town planning system.
