DIR. Shirley was one OF the committee
which recently made tour OF inspcc-
tion through the alleys of the city and

Less attention should be given to
pointing out the evil which exists and
more should he given In stamping II
out. The miserable specter Of vested
rights and the self-interest OF landlords
are the greatest obstacles to the reinov-
al Of this blot upon our city"
DIR. Shirley held that the matter was
one OF acute public concern. that !,
should be taken hold Of by public au-
thority. and private interests compelled
to yield to the public welfare. As an
important item In this reform he sug-
Eested the destruction OF tenements un-
fit for human habitation and the crec-
ton OF sanitary houses which might
be rented at moderate cost:
The speaker pointed out that so per
cent OF the alleys were In the northwest
section Of the city and urged that every
effort be made to blot out the evil.
