Guatemala City, June s. There are large

precautions are taken each night to maintain

most of the men who We're sentenced 70 death

TALK OF TENEMENTS
II. f. IrUine Thinks City Should
Ozcn Them-"Graftr' Says Guthrie.

The West Side branch of the Young Mems
Christian Association presented Professor Will
lam B Guthrie. of the College of the City OF
New York. and Alexander F. Irvine, author OF
My Life in PeOnage," as principals in three
round debate yesterday. Professor Guthrie had
to catch train so Mr.. Irvine got a chance to
say a lot of things. without being called on TO
prove them, in the third round This advantage
enabled him TO get the decision from the crowd.
although there was official verdict
Professor Guthrie is a conservative. while Mr.
Irvine is very much of a radical. and takes de-
light in arising every IN while and pro-
claiming. Il am socialist They talked about
the welfare OF the masses yesterday, but almost
agreed in thinking that the term welfare was a
rnsnoner. They had had debate on similar
lines week before.
Mr. Irvine led of with a hard blow at the way
tenement houses are run He sure that the
reason things were so bad was that the con-
scienceIess owners of tenement houses wanted
10 make money out OF them instead of running
them for the benefit of the tenants. He was very
severe about the methods of the Trinity Cor
poration in managing its tenement properties.
and talked about it for some time,
Then he caught his opponent mapping and was
in the middle of a discussion of the beauties OF
public architecture before any one knew he had
started il He said that not even Oxford had
finer buildings than some of the city's. and
that the tenement house problem would be
solved by municipal ownership II was the gen
eral opinion that Mr. Irvine had scored heavily
by this argument, though there was some uI-
certainty as 10 Just how ne had done IL
MI Irvine praised the work or the 1eHeuehA
House Commission OF 1894. and told his hearers
about its work. He had lot more 10 say ABOUT
what he decided 10 call social ownership or
the tenement houses, and then sat down, tired
but confident that the forces OF conservatism
were routed and dismayed-
Professor Guthrie didn't seem TO be dlSmayed
a bit He thought that municipal ownership or
the tenement houses would only mean mora
graft and went TO say that private competl-
tive methods had been responsible Tor the sue
cess of public ownership. notably in the case or
the postOfice which was dependent he SAID on
the railroads Then he made plea Tor the
rights of property. in an apologize way ana.
growing holder. said the tenement house was
an economic fact. Then he had 10 catch train
and Mr. Irvine jumped in and said that thers
would be no graft under his plan. because untler
that he was going 10 have the socialists govern
the city.
