She is rather a petite person, with
sparkling eyes and golden chestnut hair,
and she has an enviable personality.
Her residence in Edmunds Street re-
fleets the charm of it's mistress, for it is
a comfortable, "homey" place, filled
with lovely old carved mahogany and
rosewood furniture-said to be the fin

Tenement Owners
Threaten to EviCt
$4,000 Families
Threat Follows Fusion
DemagOgic Maneuver
on House Laws

NEW YORK.-A threat TO evict
$1,000 working class families was
made yesterday by Joseph Gold
smith, president of the council of
the Real Estate Association Of
Greater New York, in press inter
view at the Hotel Bolivar, $50 Cen
trRl Park West.
The threat was made in answer TO
the rumors that the Fusion admins
tration might demand the renovation
Of old fire-trap tenementS in which
is people have been burned to death
In the past two weeks. The con-
struction of these tenements violates
the Multiple Housing Laws, which
neither the previous Tammany nor
the present Fusion administration
have enforced.
'If the Mayor or anyone else, -
Goldsmith declared, puts through
such a drastic order, the tenement
owners will walk out on him and
abandon the properties, and $4,000
families viii be put out on the
streets with no place to go. We are
financially unable to remove all
these violations, which would cost an
average Of 5000 for every house"
The Real Estate Association rep
resents $4,000 teneemnt house own
ers who control $1,000 tenements
which at present house $4,000
families.
The entire matter has been
brought to a head by the dema-
gOgic maneuver of the Fusion
administration, to declare an end
to the moratorium on tenement
improvements, enacted in 1929 for
the benefit of New York'S real es-
tate owners. All that the lifting
of this moratorium would entail is
the construction of fireproof stairs
in the tenement buildings.

Taxi PAY
Cut Thru
NRACode
Wages to Come Down
to $I2; Union Will
Fight 1t

NEW YORK-FolloWirg long
draTE-oGt secret deliberations in taa
City Hall, Mr. William L. Allen, de-
putty MIRA. administrator, father of
the starvation textile code, announced
that he had finally worked out his
code for the New York taxi drivers.
The code, a yeritable hunger edict,
would, through the minimum wage
joker, make the legal wage Of taxi
driver $12 s. week. This is the very
wage scale that the drivers were
fighting against during the recent
great taxi strike. Strikers reported
that they could not feed themselves
and families on this miserable sum.
Now, Mr.. Allen, who through his code
maneuvers reduced the wages Of
skilled textile workers to s12 a week
in the South and SIS in the North,
proposes that the drivers continue
to work under the same starvation
conditions.
Union Hits Code
Opposing this code With might and
main is the Taxi Drivers Union, which
now has membership of $4,000 in
Manhattan alone. According to Joseph
Gilbert, field organizer Of the union,
the TDU. will mobilize the drivers
to fight for the full code Of the
union, which demands $23 a week
minimum for day drivers and $25
for night men and unemployment in
surance OF $13 a week for married
men and $40 for single drivers.
Although Aliens code is supposed
to ban the maintenance of a black
list by the feet owners, it is clear
that this system will not be abolished
unless the drivers through their
garage committees see to it that the
blacklist files which are in every
garage are destroyed.
