Bears the Sf BIG IMPROVEMENT 111 LUG CONDITIONS [Continued From First Page] 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." AUGUST 17, 1914 !
