Excerpt from The Functions of the Municipality, With Special Reference to Public Services

Such civic enthusiasm as exists in the United States has been promoted not by an access of local autonomy, but by other influences, chief among which may be recognized the mere fact of growth. Mere growth, varied as are the. Races which have contributed to it, has resulted in a certain variety of civic pride. Which, besides resenting alleged underestimates of population. May even prepare the way for some more worthy emotion. The mere growth of the great cities has compelled their govern ments to deal in a scientific way with some of the problems which mere growth produces, and the magnitude of these operations has imbued the people with a kind of civic pride which. Crude as it is, is not without value.
