In the final analysis, Mr. Stabler
pointed out, the chief sufferers
from this situation are the tenants,
who go to make up the vast pro-
portion of the population in the
cities and towns of the United
States, for the consequent stagna-
tion in building has forced up their
rents.
This condition is one of the
greatest breeders OF discomfort
said Mr.. Stabler. 1T hits the
masses and the persons of moderate
incomes and especially those of
fixed incomes. They are helpless
with income stationary and outgo
increasing. This situation must be
changed; these people must have
their burdens lightened or we will
face greater discomfort than now
exists"
In conclusion he said that the
only remedy lay in convincing Con-
gress that the passage of a tax
exemption measure is needed to
bring the vanishing funds back

Uncle Harry Talks About One
OF Americas S Greatest Men

IF you haven't any special ques-

like to tell you a little something
about really great man who died
recently in London"
Was he an Englishman?' asked
Jimmy.
mo. he was a native-born citizen
of the United States" replied Uncle
Harry. He was an army man with
the rank of major general and thor
oughly American in every way. But
he was even more than that. He
was benefactor of the whole human
race and as some one has very aptly
said, he was physician to the world
Made Possible the Panama Canal.
This man was Maj. Gen. William
&c. Gorgas. former surgeon general
to the United States army, and
really the man who made possible
the building Of the Panama Canal"
why I thought the canal was
built under the, direction of Maj.
Gen. Goethals," said Joe.
We'll, ii is true that the actual
construction work on the Canal was
under the direction of Gen. Geothals,
and he did do wonderful work." said
Uncle Harry. But as difficult as
the engineering problems were at
Panama, the health problem, which
had to be solved first, was, I think,
generally conceded to have been the
greatest obstacle.
You know, eminent French en-
gineers attempted to construct the
Panama Canal long before our coun-
try became interested in the project.
But two diseases-yel1ow fever and
malaria-caused the death of so
many workmen and made working
conditions so treacherous and un-
healthful that the idea of ever con-
structing a canal across the Isthmus
to connect the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans was abandoned. Then along
came Maj. Gen. Gorgas. who had
already made a great reputation for
himself by driving yellow fever out
of Cuba after the Spanish American
war. Gen. Gorgass fight against
yellow fever and malaria in Panama
has already gone down in history
as probably the most notable
achievement of its kind anywhere
in the world. Through his ability
as a sanitary expert and as an ex-
ecutive officer, he was able to con-
duct such a vigorous and thorough
campaign as to transform the. Canal
Zone from a veritable pest -hole to
a district that the then President
Roosevelt said was as safe as a
health resort
in addition to his work in Cuba
and Panama. Gen. Gorgas within
recent years stamped ont yellorr
fever in Ecuador, South America.

Early Protests That Zoning
:. Was Illegal Dissipated
. By Court Decisions

. The city of New York was the
leader, in establishing a building
zone ordinance with oficial maps
showing districts within which GER
tain uses. heights and sizes OF
buildings are prohibited. according
Ito Edward NJ. Bassett. counsel Of
,rhe New York coming commission.
Sc. Louis, Newark. Rochester. NIL
1xaukee, washington and numerous
smaller cities, including Yonkers
and White Plains. have followed
New York City in adopting zoning
regulations and maps. Some cities
a have made their regulations more
stringent than New York, and some
=have made them more lax, but all
have followed the method of three
maps, one for use, one for height
and one for size of future buildings.
All have followed New York in
placing the regulations under the
police power after obtaining a
grant of the zoning power from the
State Legislature
. In the early days Of zoning many
claimed that such restrictions would
only way that protective restrfc-
atoms could be applied, IL at all,
would be under the power Of emf
nent domain so that each person
affected would be paid for his sup
. posed damage. The zoning went
ahead. however, on the theory that
the community could prevent cha
Z Dtic and harmful buildings and uses
without making money payment
5ust the same as II can prevent epi-
denies or lessen fire hazards with
! out making payments.
q Early Decisions.
10 Five years ago there were almost
no court decisions on the restric-
<-6ns ~ buildings by municipalities.
Aestrictiens in deeds had been fully
lnd Bitterly litigsted. but municipal
[esfrictions on buildings were =
{ 0ovelty. It had been decided by the
rrorts IN Boston that new build
fnks could not exceed 125 feet on
pertain streets and eighty feet on
others. In.Los Angeles 1t had been
decided by the courts that q brick
yard could be ousted from a resi-
dential district without making
payment to the owner.
a The numerous zoning ordinances
of the last four years have brought
about many legal decisions, some
of them by the highest courts OF
The various States. These decisions
have uniformly upheld the zoning
ordinances and have stated over
The Washington herald., 1920-12-05

and over again that where the reg.
ulation was for the health, safety
and general welfare of the COM
munity IL was not necessary to
make payment to property owners.
Building zone ordinances through
out the United States, where passed
under a grart Of authoSity by the
state and having a relation to the
health. safety. morals and general
welfare of the community, can now
be confidently declared to be con-
stitutional and they will be protect
ed and enforced by the courts.
The Massachusetts legislature
prepared a law empowering ali
cities and towns to pass zoning or
dinances and in accordance with a
constitutional requirement request
ed the opinion of the Supreme Ju-
dicial Court of that State before
passing II. In May, 1890. the court
handed down q decision in which
they said that they were not able
70 perceive in the proposed law any
thing contrary to the fundamental
law of the Commonwealth.
Protects Homes Districts.
In April, 1890. the Ohio Court of
Common Pleas, passing on a case
which arose in East Cleveland, held
that II was constitutional to pre-
vent apartment houses in districts
of private homes, using the follow
ing language: &.
1T would seem that there could
be no two opinions upon the propo-
sition that the apartment house, or
tenement. in a section OF private
residences. is q nuisance to those
In Its immediate vicinity. Under

HES use q common hallway and
common front and rear stairways.
The erection Of one apartment
house in a district Of private homes
would seriously affect only those
persons living in the immediate W.
cinity thereof. but the common ex-
perience Is that the erection of one
apartment drives out the single res
licences adjacent thereto, to make
way for more apartments. The re-
suit is that in time, and not a very
great time, when one apartment n
erected the whole street is given
