Commissioners Have Now More Power

He Says.

A protest against the passage OF House
bills e2S9 and 92sS. relating 20 insanitary
houses in the District, has been sent to
the Senate District Committee by Al
tOrney Henry +. Davis. who points out
in each bill certain provisions which he
alleges To De dangerous In the sweeping

Mr. Davis sounds an alarm against
the provision in each bill which en-
powers any agent of the Building In
spector's force to enter any house at
any reasonable time. on the mere be
lief that insanitary conditions may exist
there He holds it is preposterous to
think OF enacting any such provision
into law and then give the Commission

judging a citizen guilty of a violation of
law, and executing their judgment

Mr.. Davis thinks In effect. It does not
protect every citizen until mis- property
shall have been proved nsanitary. but
condemns the property and provides re-
LIEF for him whenever appropriations
may be made for such purpose or some
such similar provision. Mr. Davis COM
ments on the uncertainty Of ever getting
such appropriations, or at least without
great delay.
