preston News Servicei

Albany, n. Y, Jan.-2.Following re
teipt of numerous complaints from
various organizations that rent prof
teering was alarming in Greater New
York city Governor Smith ordered ah
investigation of conditions of housing
and the report of the commission
showed that housing conditions are
worse than ever in the history of the
lily A comparison with the report OF
1920 was made and brought out the fol
lowing facts:
Rents have increased forty to ninety
three per cent; factory wages show a
decrease; there is greater demand
for homes and vacancies are fewer;
rooms regarded as unfit for habitation
are occupied; little repairing has beer,
done; sanitary conditions are worse;
ventilation is bad there is unbeliev-
able congestion in virtually every
block; high rents are taking money
from food and education: standards Of
living are being lowered. emergency
tent laws are being evaded.
Negroes appear to be worse sufferers as
I indicated from the report. although an
exhaustive study of conditions in Har
lem was not made.
