ALLEY PROBLEMS
ARB CONSIDERED
Health Officer Woodward Makes
Recommendations Toward Les
Sening Evils Of Slums.

For the betternent Of the publlc health.
the IeSsening OF fire danger. and the up
lift OF the community morally. DR.. WILL
lam c. Woodward. health ofieer. has
recommended TO the Commissioners the
elimination OF as many alleys in the city
as possible. DR.. Woodward says that in
turned into interior parks. and that in
the remaining cases they can be con-
verted into minor streets.
THE alley question" says Or. Wood
ward in the recommendation to the Com
missioners, not only involves the ques-
ton OF health. but also that OF police
and fire protection and the social status
and aspirations OF dwellers in alleys.
Certainly no one can deny that the trend
Of alley life Is against all these things.
Action that has been taken toward the
elimination OF alley dwellings, with re-
spect TO the famous. or rather Infamous,
Willow Tree alley. marks q step IN the
right direction, but only a very short
step.
1T may be possible TO find throughout
the District some other alleys that can
we'll be eliminated by such treatment
as that which has been adopted with re-
spect to Willow Tree alley-the acqui-
bluon OF the lano oy the government ana
the conversion Of the interior OF the
square into q park or public playground
but in the vast majority OF instances the
situation is not adapted TO such treatment
In such cases, II will be necessary
to convert the alley into q minor street.
or else 20 find some way by which the
abandoning OF the dwellings in the alley
can be compelled The problem Is one OF
the most important that is before the
community at the present time, and the
fact that II Is difficult should lend only
to increased energy In our efforts to-
ward solution"
