'HOUSING WORKMEN GREAT PROBLEM As It Is Their Machinery New York, Dec.:1.—'Manufactur- ers and heads of big industrial con- cerns are gradually realizing that it is as important to house their work- men as it 18 td house their machinery and it is gratifylng that the United States government has been asked to give financial ald to industrial hous- ing.” Such is the oplnion of Gerald Traf- ford Hewlitt of the British Garden Cities and Town Planning association, who is now in this country. In a statemen: to The Assooiated Press Mr. Hewitt thus briefly summarized the spread of this movement in Europe:— “This idea of govel‘nmentnlI aid in industrial housing is nothing Very many countries have for years assisted in the building of working men’s houses. In the United States it has been left to the mercies of the real estate speculator, with the re- sult that the working man has had to pay exhorbitant rents for bad hous- ing and worse environment. If you have to pay 12 per cent for money to build workmen’s houses today instead of being able to borrow it from the government at 4 per cent it means that the rents have to be higher and the workman has to pay. “The most brilliant and extensive example of housing reform achieved anywhere is the building in Ireland during the jast fifteen vears of 40,- 000 cottages through government aid “In 1914, just before the war com. menced Mr. Lloyd George came for- ward with the most comprehensive housing program ever announced by any responsible statesman. This pro- gram, put forth officially as that of" the British government, was the pro- posal to make a survey of urban and new. rural housing conditions throughout Great Britain and then, by govern- ment loans at low interest, by gov- ernment subsidies and by rent and wage commissions. to see that a con- structive program of housing reform . which shall supply the needs disclosed by this survey, even to the possible extent of building 1,000,000 houses, now estimated to be needed, shall be | carried out at a cost estimated to ex- ceed $1,000,000,000. Housing reform on a national scale has therefore be- come a matter of national policy in Great Britain. “Quite apart from the national housing program, there, is the enor- mous housing reform that has taken place by British municipalities. In 1864 Liverpool possessed the worst slums in England, but since that date it has spent millions of pounds in sliminating its soul-destroying slums As Important to House Employes, | and rehousing its citizens in ' model tenements and cottages. The death rate has been reduced from 67 to 27 a thousand. Before 1910 typhoid !eve.r was ncver once absent in the year's medical return and since then there has not been a case. Tuberculosis declined from 7 to 1 per thousand, and police precautions for crime have | been reduced 70 per cent. The cash saving to Liverpool under their re- housing policy is estimated at $350,- i 000 a year, or double the cost of pro- | viding decent homes for working men. | 1875 the late realized what a sound investment mu- nicipal housing was and at an expen- diture of over $15,000,000 Birming- ham was cleared of its slums, this housing reform has proved a! excellent investment for the munici- pality and has more than paid back the original 3 1-2 per cent bond issue created to carry out this work. raised money for years past at rates varying from 8 to 4 per cent to pro- vide homes for working men and their families. Some idea of the magnitudo of the work undertaken by the coun- cil is shown by the fact that they house over 60,000 people, and the gross annual rentals collected amount to over $1,250,000. Just before the war started they were planning fur- ) ther housing involving an expendi- ture of $17,000,000. This is all the result of 20 years of hard work and housing education. “In addition to the government and municipal housing, there is a great record of the houses built by the various co- ! partnership tenant societies which in the past thirteen years have bullt over 12,000 houses, with land | bulldings valued at over $42,000,000, jand all the different estates laid out lon Garden’City and Town Planning lines. There are about fifty of these estates, varying in size from 6 to 4,- 000 acres, and comprising a total area of about 15,000 acres, of which only | about 3,000 acres have been devel- | oped, with over 13,000 houses, repre- senting a capital investment of $17,- 000,000. A large proportion of all ! this money for housing has been loaned by the British government at low rates of from 3 1-2 to 4 per cent | and this aid has been largely the cause | of the successful housing results | achieved in England. “Other European countries have not been slow to recognize that industrial housing is a national obligation. The city of Stockholm for some years has been building and financing houses for its workmen. Frankfort-on-the-Main { has spent many millions of dollars on industrial housing and when the war commenced it had just started a scheme for a new harbor at an out- lay of $18,000,000 which included a substantial appropriation for working {men’s houses. The city of Ulm has made provision to ensure that all its citizens shall have the opportunity to ilive in improved homes. It has ac- quired eighty per cent of all the available building land in the city limits to sell or lease to its citizens on | eas terms for building homes. | 'No less than 12,000 homes have { been built in Hungary within the last few years by aid of government loans. {In Italy the problem of housing re- | | form has received the attention of | the government for many years."
