LANDLORDS VIOLATE
LAW, WOMEN CLAIM
Workers Stirred by Statistics
Showing 1000 Forced
to Live in Alleys
SALE PLAN CONDEMNED

Two new features developed in the
housing situation today.
Churchwomen throughout the city
in a "civic righteousness campaign
declare that property owners are evad
ing the law and because of crowded
conditions, 65 900 persons are living
in rear courts amid conditions which
menace the health and life of the com =
munity.
The West Philadelphia branch of the
Tenants Protective Association has ap-
pealed to labor unions in the city
against the Own Your Home cam
paign. declaring it to be "a ring of
spectators acting under the guise of
philanthropists."
The churchwomen propose to carry
their protest to the City Hall and de :
mand enforcement of the housing laws.
The movement originated with the
churchwomen' association of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, of which
Mrs. Edwin G. Grice is president. 1t
has extended to all creeds and is inter
UNCONVENTIONAL in character.
Report From Women
Following n meeting on March 6, the
women began an investigation of con =
ditions, which will be reported in full
at meeting to be held in Holy Trinity
parish house next Wednesday.
Mrs. w. b. Abby, of 1906 Miflin
street. chairman of the housing com
mittee, said today:
1.-The primary object Of the church
womens movement is to arouse the
city to the desperate conditions in the
housing situation. Property owners
have been evading the law, and this
must be remedied. Sixty five thousand
people in this city ure living in rear
courts amid conditions which imperil
the lives and health of all who occupy
these houses.
In the letter of the West Philadelphia
branch of the Tenants Protective Asso =
citation it is asserted that operative
builders are determined to build no more
homes until rents are advanced "at least
90 per cent" and that capital is being
withheld from building enterprises until
the own your home campaign has been
worked to the limit.
William Fl. Ball. who has recently
been appointed chairman of the "own-
your home section, United States De :
partment of Labor. said: Operative
builders have stated that they will not
build until they can be assured of an
adequate return on their investment. I
know nothing whatever of any capital
which is being withheld from construc-
tion for the benefit of the hackers of
he home purchasing movement.
