Then Underwood rose and declared:
THE reckless expenditure Of public

which in the end destroys republics.

will only establish slums where slums
do not at present exist or else the peo-
pie from the alleys will rent houses that
were intended for but one family. and

Thus will the Government clerk or

For Sanitary Homes.
The one solution is to provide sani-
tary homes to take the place of the un-
sanitary homes We have allowed to
grow up in this city. 1t cannot be done
economically unless a whole block of
buildings are put up at time. But il
has already been demonstrated in this
city that it is possible to construct
buildings that will give each family
three or four rooms that will rcnt for
IS, ST.. or SIS a month
The bill | have introduced in the
House would allow loans from the Gov
ernment funds 20 be made to competent
persons or companies who would con
struct such houses. provided ii is not
done for private profit. The plans
would have to be approved by the Dis.
trict Commissioners and this would give
the local government actual control OF
the very thing that Is the most con-
slant source of trouble and expense
Congressman Borland said that the
trict enough houses renting for SIS a
month or less to house all the families
in the alleys is erroneous. He said that
all together there are but 605 such
houses, which, though all of them were
available for the purpose. would house
but one-hfth Of the alley population
But of this COS, he pointed out. 1876 are
