This historical study is the author’s second article concerning Dr Yasushi Kataoka, 1876-1946, an Osaka architect who played an important role in the enactment of the City Planning Act of 1919. The article analyzes his planning theory during the crucial years of 1912-18 and traces its formation process in relation to the influence of Nelson P. Lewis. The author concludes that Kataoka replaced Lewis’s planning theory with the “old type of his own with a heavy emphasis upon street improvement, wchich we defeated in the Committee’s debate by Hiroshi Ikeda, who argued the central function of the Act should be the “new” type of planning, namely land use planning.
