BETTER HOUSING CALLED FOR
Community Can Not Be Made At
tractlve Without the Cooperation
Of the Builder.

"The housing problem is one Of tbs
most important aspects of home de
velopment and good homes are the
keystone of the whole social arch,
writes Edward T. Hartman, secretary
of the Massachusetts, Civic League, in
the annual report of that organization
Mr.. Hartman discusses the housing
problem in towns, and says in part:
Il want particularly to mention
three aspects of the housing problem;
the aesthetic, the social and the eco
nomic For many years we have had
in Massachusetts succession of
short-lived organizations developed 10
improve the appearance Of towns.
They have in the main died because
their aim was superficial. Beauty
cannot easily be engrafted upon rot
tenness. People are beginning to see
that in town in which every house
is of good design and in which main
tenance work Is carefully looked aft
er, there are those elements of art
which when combined make for a
beautiful community.
"The social aspects Of the housing
problem are enough, it seems to me,
to cause every one Of US to re-esti-
mate the values of the items covered
In our efforts for social advance. Bad
homes are responsible for large per-
centage of the immortality which the
churches are trying to cure; they are
responsible for a large part of the
sickness the hospitals, dispensaries
and nurses are trying to cure, and d.
rectly or through immortality or sick
ness they are responsible for much Of
the poverty the charities are trying to
cure.
"The economic aspects of the hous-
ing problem are serious. Towns get,
as a rule, that for which they bid
That is, If force of circumstances
brings large number of people to a
town, the quality of these people will
depend in large measure on the kind
of homes which are offered them If
the people have to content themselves
with the abandoned dwellings, out
buildings and similar inferior homes,
they will be of an inferior type Of peo-
pie, because selfrespecting people
will not live in such homes.
but when the people coming into
a town are offered attractive homes
on we'll planned streets self-respect-
ing people will come, they will In
crease the taxable value of the town,
they will pay their way through the
schools, the streets and elsewhere,
and they will decrease the per cap
tia demand for all the remedial insti-
tutions.
ut is not enough to develop good
homes. They must be maintained in
q good condition. There is therefore
a call for an active local healthy au-
thority. To meet its conditions and
needs every town must have a good
law, the efficient enforcement of
which will give the town what It
needs in the way of houses, and it |
must have an active board of health !
that will see that houses are always
kept clean and sanitary"
