you sure they're still in bed?"
"Yas'm," came the muffied answer
from behind her.
But the young woman shifted down
the opening. "That's my cigarette
smoke!" she cried. "And my last
box was gone when I woke up!
Whatever am going to do with
those children?"
Later the two women became
neighborly and talked the matter
over. The mother said she couldn't
give up her smoking. She just
couldn't. The best the older woman
could do was get her to promise not
to let the boys see her smoke.
So now she keeps her cigarettes
hidden and smokes in her room, with
the door locked. But the little boys
can lie on the floor outside and smell
the smoke under the crack.
She doesn't understand what so
many mothers refuse to accept--that
being mother entails sacrifice of
all personal vanities, faults and
vices. And she still whips those kid
dies for smoking.

You Can't Move and You Can't
Stay-If You Haven't the Price

The tenants Of these tenements
have no alternative but to submit
and pay the excessive rentals. They
cannot move because, in the first
place, it would be difficult to find a
cheaper rent and, in the second
place, they can never get enough
money together all at once to pay
the expenses of moving and give
the new landlord a months rent in
advance. An intelligent Italian
with whom talked and whose rent
had been raised from SO to $13 a
month told me that he had had an
idea Of moving out into the country
and had gone on a friends motor
cycle in search of a place, only to
discover that the rents in the coun-
try had increased just as much as
those in the city, and he had given
up in despair and decided to stay
in his present tenement and take
another family in to help pay the
rent. AS he had five children and

borhood settlements, civic clubs and
similar organizations to gather the
necessary statistics. In New York
City between twenty and thirty or
CARNATIONS have been called upon
to investigate conditions Of one
block in their districts which
they consider typical. For example,
the Hips Bay Neighborhood Asso-
citation chose a block bounded

Madison House, on Madison Street,

located, which is entirely Russian;
one of the women's municipal or
CARNATIONS chose a block in the

it went up to $14.50. There are no
bathrooms in these tenements-a
hall toilet is shared by the four
families occupying each floor; there
is no hot water or heat furnished,
the stairs are rickety, the floors
uneven and the plumbing conditions
unspeakable, and yet the landlords
have raised the rents from 10 to
20 per cent and refuse to make any

Hopes Long Deferred May
Come True in the Fall

A resolution was recently pre-
sented to the Board of Aldermen
asking the Mayor to arrange for
"the immediate construction of
model municipal dwellings, to be
rented by people at COST" and
special revenue bond issue is called
for to meet the expenses of con-
struction. From which it appears
that the City Fathers are also sit
ting up and taking notice" of the
housing situation. And in Septem-
Der the amendment to the Penal
Code, Furnishing landlords who re-
fuse to rent to families having chill
dren, was due to take effect but
failed to pass.
The Tenants League, organized
in The Bronx, has accomplished a
great deal toward rousing public
interest in the question of increase
of rents, but no association can
really change the situation without
the solid backing of the law, which
is the only fear of the profteering
landlord. And here is where the
Reconstruction Commission comes
in; it is the Governors own com
mission and you may be sure that
he will see to it that it's reports are
not pigeonholed. 1t is pretty safe
to predict relatively speedy action
on the part of the Legislature to
at least ameliorate the housing
situation. The jewellers in the
tenements" of the lower East
Side, the ''f1ats" Of Harlem and the
apartments" of Park Avenue may
join in a hope for better days
if the days of the profiteering land
lord are numbered by the law.
