New York is the twentieth century with all its choices, availabilities, sentiments, bravery, willingness to experiment, varietyand sheer living adventure. No precious little corners, no pious chit-chat, no crocodile tears-just life, life, life on the move. No place for living in or on the past, for the unfit or lazy. She has made big mistakes but she's got a big heart and the men of stature in this city must and will help. Without delegating authority wholly to the government, they will participate in the solution of its problems so that the ancient Ephebie oath of Greece-"to leave the city a better plaee than one found it"-becomes an accepted and real duty for all its citizens. It's well worth it.
