CYNWYD WOMEN URGED
TO HELP HOUSING FIGHT
State Federation's Civics Chairman
Says Industrial Activity Has Greatly
Aggravated Problem

The housing of six men in one room, the
habitation of thousands of dark cellars. the
Breeding Of immortality through .overcrowded
conditions and the coupling up of the
drink problem with that Of bad housing
were dwelt upon by Mrs. H. c. Cochrane.
chairman of cvics of the State Federation
of Pennsylvania Women. who made an adj
dress today on Housing and Temperance
TO the Women's club of Cynwyd in the
Church of the Covenant at Cynwyd,
Mrs. Cochrane said the public was under
the impression that present prosperity and
the plenitude of jobs had favorably mod-
ned the housing problem The opposite is
true. according to the speaker.
Prosperity has amplified the problem in
creased industrial actiSty and brought
thousands of additional workers to the
city who must be housed somewhere and
the line of least resistance seems to be the
placing of two, three or more families in
houses built for one.
This condition." said Mrs. Cochrane.
quickly leads to the foundation Of the
tenement. Owners find it vastly more pro-
ntable to draw rent from three families
than from one"
For the elimination of housing evils
Mrs. Cochrane suggested that serious at
tention be paid to city planning and that
factory and mill owners be urged 10 sae
that their best interests lie i'm the proper
housing of their employees.

WASHINGTON. Feb 21-The House Of
Representatives today refused specifically
TO direct Postmaster General Bureson to
continue the pneumatic mail tube service
In every city where II is now maintained
This action leaves 1t very doubtful whether
the mail tube service will be continued in

The Postmaster General has made II
plain to Congress that he would substitute
service in every city except New York.
unless forced to extend the pneumatic
service by Congressional direction.
Representatives of the Philadelphia trade
bodies who have been fighting to retain the
pneumatic tube service do not forcsee any
great danger in the action taken by the
House OF Representatives today in refusing
specifically to direct Postmaster General
Burleson to continue the service. Emil T.
Albrecht, secretary of the Bourse, COM
menting on the action of the House, said
II foreshadowed this action while talk
ing with several friends about two weeks
ago. I did not believe the House would
agree to accept the compulsory amendment
made by the Senate on the floor. II is a
case of give and take. The bill must he
sent in conference with the two legislative
branches, and l believe it will be agreed
upon to accept the Senate amendment.
ITO accept the amendment on the floor
would be setting a precedent that the House
does nto want to establish. 1t is a case
of practical politics. as see it. The House
will have the opportunity Of trading with
the Senate on some other issue.
