The Housing Problem

When the ladies of the D. A. r. undertook
the other day to wrestle with the housing prob
lem as it has developed in certain parts OF town
they tackled question that has made Gladstone
and Lloyd-George sweat, and thousand other
of the biggest minds of century. In view OF the
completely and wide ramificatlons OF the mat
ter whatever miscues they may have been guilty
of in trying to cope with it are venal.
At the very beginning of every attempt to
meet such situation is the imperative necessity
of making the most thorough and complete in
vestigations. No intelligent community action
can ever be taken so long as there has not first
been laid solid foundation of data.
And then when the facts all ascertained,
the analyses made, and the plans of advance
drawn, great caution should be exercised in the
use of publicity. Publicity is a sword that often
cuts both ways and the very effectiveness OF it
demands that it be used by experienced hands
not liable to destroy where the intent is to heal.
If for instance, list of property owners suppos-
ed guilty of bad housing, drawn up after very
hasty surveys, were to be exposed to the public
it is manifest that injustice would be done
them because there are hundreds of other land
lords equally guilty If one is exposed all should
be exposed. 1t Is unfair arbitrarily to make a
scapegoat of one in order to take slam at the
others in the same boat.
But the difficulties in the way of housing
regulation best appreciated when we recall
the fundamental causes of the conditions. There
may be some difference of opinion as to some of
these alleged causes but all are agreed on at
least three
Landlords, for one thing, will take advantage
of poor people because they are ignorant. Not
knowing what their rights are, either in the
business market before the law, many of
these families will submit to treatment no other
class would patiently endure.
Single takers would point out that bad
housing is primarily due to holding unoccupied
property as investments. This raises rents and
forces mutitudes into ever narrowing districts.
And where there is congestion among the poor
there is almost sure to be bad housing.
But deepest of all is poverty That is the
root of the whole matter. Were people not poor
they would not be ignorant. Were they not
poor they would not be at the mercy of rapacious
landlords Were they not poor they would not
be the victims of many vices that now de-
grade and depress them.
But poverty is buttressed and buwarked be-
hind the interests of many of our best classes
Poverty is source of income to many respect
able persons who could not remain respectable
without the income.
Therefore poverty is tangled up with the
roots of many of our firmest grounded social in
stitutions usages and interests, and tanges it.
self up with the pocket-nerve of a goodly number
of the very families who are most clamorous in
their demands for reform. It is for this reason
the housing problem makes the biggest brains
sweat
