TENEMENT HOUSE LAW
DEBATE Is SPIRITED
City Club Speakers Become
Heated in Discussing Pro-
posed Changes.

The CITY CIuD COn0uCted last nlRnt n
hearing on the proposed amendments TO
the tenement house law permitting toilets
to open upon public stairways reducing
the minimum width of rooms from seven
to six feet and creating a board OF APP
peals to construe the tenement house law
or suspend some of ts clauses in indlvid-
ual cases. Advocates and opponents OF
these measures within the club, which, II
is said. have threatened TO split the Or
ganization into hostile camps, showed
some heat last night. but all took pains to
explain that the discussion was merely
difference Of opinion and by no means
dssension
Charles n. strong. the clubs president,
gave each side an hour to present It's
case and a quarter of an hour for rebuff
tai. Professor Charles T. Chandler, presi-
dent of the Tenement Economies Society,
led off for the advocates. followed by
George f. Garfield. vice-president OF the
Charities Aid Association: Dr. William
shannon. OF the New York Academy OF
Medicine: Miss Mary de G.. Trenholm.
head worker at the East Side Settlement.
and Henry Attcrbury Smith, architect OF
the Vanderbilt and John Jay model tene-
ments. on the upper East Side.
They confined themselves to advocating
tho first two amendments. ignoring the
one providing for board Of appeals
The argument for toilets and bathrooms
opening upon the public stairway pre-
supposed an open air stairway in court.
The toilets presence there would give
more outside wall space. they contended,
for living and sleeping rooms. and would
reduce rents. Smaller rooms. they argued.
would permit a greater segregation OF the
sexes by increasing the number or rooms
The opponents. led by Lawrence WELLER
secretary OF the Charities Organization
Society and former Deputy Tenement
House Commissioner. insisted that the
ventilation OF toilets on public stairways
would increase the fire risk, the sanitary
risk and the moral risk They denied that
Il would provide more rentable space and
lower rents. As for the seven-foot room,
they considered any reduction In size a
step backward. Mr.. WELLER read letter
from Henry W. de Forest. former Tene-
ment House Commissioner. embodying
these objections.
John j. Murphy, the present Tenement
House Commissioner. followed him In OPP
position to the proposed amendments h.
