Minorities, Cities To Bear Brunt Of Federal Cutbacks, Chester Smolski
Minorities, Cities To Bear Brunt Of Federal Cutbacks, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The sad story of the 4,500 Rhode Island families whose welfare benefits will be reduced or ended with this current 1982 fiscal year should make us profoundly aware of the plight of the poor. In the next few months government-mandated action will bring the federal budget closer to balance. Not yet noticed but soon to be realized, will be the impact on minority poor, and on the place where most of them live--the city."
The Most Disheartening Example Of City Decay, Chester Smolski
The Most Disheartening Example Of City Decay, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"It has to be seen to be believed. And yet, two days after viewing it, one wonders if it were just a terrible dream that will somehow disappear with time. Is the South Bronx, that most devastated area of New York City, really as bad as they say it is?"
Residency Law Could Stabilize Local Economic Base, Chester Smolski
Residency Law Could Stabilize Local Economic Base, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"Should city employees be required to live in the communities which employ them? This is the question which more and more cities are seriously considering as they seek ways to stem the unabated flow of their residents to the suburbs and to raise needed tax dollars."
Rhode Island Has A Large Stake In Its Capital City, Chester Smolski
Rhode Island Has A Large Stake In Its Capital City, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"If you are number two, you try harder. But what do you do if you are number four? Figures recently released by the United States Census Bureau estimate that Providence lost 11,000 persons between 1970 and 1975, and now ranks as the fourth largest city in New England."
This Mini-State Needs The Land Use Plan: Viewpoint, Chester Smolski
This Mini-State Needs The Land Use Plan: Viewpoint, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The most significant bill to come before this session of the General Assembly will be introduced soon by Governor Noel. The proposed bill to establish a state-local land management program merits the close scrutiny of all citizens of this state. Not only would this program have an immediate effect on Rhode Island, but the full impact of this farsighted bill would fall on succeeding generations."
Community Control: Rebuttal, Chester Smolski
Community Control: Rebuttal, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The problem of fire was very real to the early settlers of this country. For this reason, in 1626, it was decreed that thatched roofs on houses no longer would be allowed in the Plymouth Colony. Early New York, in 1648, stipulated that wooden chimenys no longer could be built on houses. These were early attempts at control over individuals by the community, in this case, for fire protection.
