Abstract
- The article features Colonel Sidney H. Bingham's prescription for solving traffic congestion in the U.S. in 1950. Bingham, chairman of New York City's Board of Transportation, believes that it is possible to have a city without having a traffic jam. The colonel's idea maybe summarized by an imaginary city called Binghamtown. Theodore Caplow, a PhD from the University of Minnesota, believes that the crisis of transportation threatens the entire scheme of urban living.
