COTTAGES REPLACING
THE TENEMENTs
Building Inspector Finds Owners
Willing to Improve Status
of Poor.

The tenement ordinance which es-
Sahlished rules and regulations concern
ing the building and use of tenements
has proven boon to Honolulu, in the
opinion of Building and Plumbing In
speetor Miehlstein. That official says
that the ordinance has so discouraged
prospective tenement builders that
they have turned their attention to
building cottages to rent cheaply. The
necessary modern sanitation fixtures in
these insure better living conditions,
while the privacy of the cottages over
the tenements insure better moral con
ditions.
"The tenement ordinance has dis
eouraged the building of the oldtime
tenement structures, says Mr.. Miehl-
stein. "Many tenement builders have
also found that under tenement condi-
tions there was no responsibility on
the part of tenants for wear and tear
and destruction of property, and this
reduced profits.

ments who are getting rid of their
tages. These have found ready and
willing tenants and the income from
the houses is satisfactory"
Fire Chief Thurston voices the same
opinion of the desirability of the small
cottage over the tenement, and be
Ieves that with the gradual decrease
rf &c nd ha nf
tages the moral tone of the city will
be greatly improved. In the tenement
the room jewellers have little privacy
and the children are reared in a hap
hazard way, tending more to the de
yelopment of immoral conditions thar
otherwise. The small cottages alsC
lessen the danger of fire.
Doors Must Swing In.
The committee of sanitation an(
health of the board of supervisors
held a meeting last night to consider
a number of amendments to the build
ing ordinance. One was the considera
ton of the swinging door evil. Many
such doors-mainly the screened ones
swing outward and are n menace t.
passersby. The committee win recon
mend that all such doors swing inward
The committee has found that tn,

force his orders for the pulling dow
