reau of Housing provided as a branch
of his department of the Pennsylvania
State government hy the General As
sembly of 1913 and the information
necessary for the next Legislature to
make appropriations for its operation
will be ready before many weeks. The
act creating the Bureau of Housing
gives the Commonwealth greater
power over the living conditions of its
people than any other law, with the
possible exception of that creating the
Department of Health, and places all
tenement, lodging and boarding houses
under State supervision. As some of
the cities have their own housing bu
reaus, the State will be able to under
take correction in communities where
sanitation and accommodations have
been ignored, especially industrial
communities.
"We have been studying out an or
ganization for this most comprehen
sive subject ever since the enactment
of the law last year and in a short
time we will not only have the nucleus
of an organization but one which will
be active on the high points when it
gets into operation," said Dr. Dixon.
Educational Foundation
"This department is already, in fact
has been for several years, working to
improve housing conditions in Penn
sylvania by the educational work of
its nurses. These nurses are active
In the communities where we have
tuberculosis dispensaries and in some
other places and have done much
without attracting great attention to
educate people up to the importance
of cleanliness, fresh air and general
banishment of dirt and disease. They
have been working quietly, but, as re
ports show, effectively, among foreign
ers and new comers, educating them
up to a point where they will work to
improve their surroundings and take
better care of their children. Befort.
the act creating the bureau was passed
the educational work that prepares
the way for better housing was going
on. By the Fall we will know what
it will cost to operate and appropri
ations can be provided."
The net creating the Bureau of
Housing was sponsored in the last
Legislature, by Representative H. C.
Watson, of Indiana, but no appro
priation to put it Into operation was
made. It being understood that the De
partment of Health chief should work
out a plan and that the preliminary
cost should be borne by the depart
mental funds, as, owing to the magni
tude of the proposition, It would take
some time to plan the work and to get
it organized. Under the terms of the
HARRLSBURG TELEGRAPH
act, which has a preamble expressing
legislative interest in movements for
"clean and healthful habitation" and
that "environment should promote the
highest type of physical and moral de
velopment," cities of the first class are
excepted from the act.
Great Control Given
The act provides that "it shall be
the duty of said bureau to investigate
the sanitary conditions of tenement,
lodging and boarding houses, and
when the same are found, in the
opinion of said bureau, to be a menace
to those occupying the same, or em
ployed therein, or to be overcrowded,
to condemn the same, and to notify
the owners or agents thereof in writ
ing, setting forth the unsanitary or
overcrowded conditions thereof, and
specifying fh writing the changes or
alterations which shall be made
thereto for the purposes of relieving
such conditions, and further specify
ing the time within which such
changes or alterations Shu 11 he com
pleted or overcrowding relieved."
In the exercise of this sweeping
power provision is made for a court
review. When a notice is given a
duplicate copy must be filed in the
court of common pleas and the owner
or agent has ten days in which to file
an appeal. If appeal is not taken in
that time appeal is to be allowed only
on direct order of the court. The
court has authority to name viewers
and court action is to be final as to
enforcement or modification of the
order. Failure to comply with orders
of the bureau is to be followed by
prosecution. A fine of S2O a day fof
failure to obey orders or imprison
ment, as court may direct, are pro
vided for conviction, the penalties ap
plying to officers or corporations or
members of firms, either as owners or
agents. The bureau agents are to have
right of entry and denial of it means
a fine of SSO to SIOO or sixtv days in
prison.
Result of Hard Work
Operation of bureaus for the super
vision of housing in New York, Phila
delphia and other American cities has
been attended with conspicuous suc
cess, the work of Jacob A. Riis in
Manhattan having stimulated people
in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh and
interested thoughtful people In the im
portance of providing proper sur
roundings for the men and women of
to-morrow. Results obtained abroad
have been the subject of much in
vestigation by students of civics and
economics in this country and the
hearings by legislative committees last
year brought out much about what
was contemplated for the Ke\ tone
State, but all this, as well as the
speeches on the housing bill, appear
to ha-ve been ignored by the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor in his
wild desire to say something deroga
tory of the administration and Legis
lature of his native State.
It Is only fair to state here that the
statement made by Commissioner
Dixon was without regard to what
Mr. McCormick had been saying In his
speeches, the doctor being too much
occupied with his notable work to be
aware that any candidate was rash
enough to speak on the stump without
knowing what was going on. The co
incidence of the preparations and tiie
speech of McCormick only serve to
illustrate the caliber of the Democratic
candidate for Governor.
Double Struggle Is Now
Predicted When Troops of
Germany and France Meet
London, Aug. 17, 3.45 a. m.—An
official communication issued by the
French War Office Sunday and tele
graphed by the Paris correspondent
of the Exchange Telegraph Company
says:
"At tlie moment that the German
main force comes In contact with our
troops,' says the War Office, "our al
lien will force lK>th Austria and Gcr
many to engage in an additional strug
gle. which, it seems likely, will be of
vast proportions.
"It Is well known by now that the
Germans anticipated the decisive de
feat or the French so that they might
immediately follow up such success by
a battle against our allies. It Is also
well known that they counted on the
slow mobilization ol' the Russian
forces and upon disturbances in Po
land to gain time for their arms. The
Emperor, however, by his nromisc to
give autonomy to Poland, has ob
tained the fidelity of the Poles, and
Russia's mobilization has been accom
plished with remarkable rapidity. The
Russian army is now moving forward
for an offensive blow, the result of
which will soon lie felt. Already In
Gulicia Russian cavalry has crossed
the fraontier and Austrian cuvalry ami
infantry have been routed while other
battalions have turned tall.
"Germany is being put on the de
fensive and it is impossible to avoid
the conclusion that licr position at the
front Is not all that could be desired
at such a critical time In lier history."
French Plans Carried
Out Successfully in
Engagement at Dinant
London, Aug. 17, 5.30 a. in.—The
correspondent of the Times at Numur,
describing the plan of battle at Dinant
Saturday when he says the French de
feated the Germans and drove them
from the place, states:
"The general scheme of the French
plan seemed to he to turn the - Ger
mans out of Dinant by a crushing
force after having first allowed them
to enter it, and secondly, to drive
them back generally towards Roche
fort, a town twenty-six miles south
of Huy.
"In both objects I believe they suc
ceeded. It was a magnificent sight to
see the French chasseurs advance,
looking like a huge flock of, crows on
a yellow field."
