i'HE AMERICAN STAND/.
.* . AKIl OF LIVINti
r l
... - - ? h
One-third of iill tlu1 American i,
people know nothing f otn person !
al experience of tli American I
standard of living. Authorities t
estimate that 10.000 families live n
in slum conditions. I
This beautiful phrase frtfm. tb. v
two-chickens-in-ovc y>pot. a v e :i v
means different things to each of i
us. Perhaps it is easier to say .1
what the American standard inot,
so we may net down to cases \
quickly. (
There cann >t lie any disagree- i
ment, surely, with the idea that ,\
a house of 'he AniericTtit standar I
means one that does not leak. It v
is in livable condition, i.e., in a
reasonable state of r-pair, wit it .
floors, walls and stairs safe fo 1
adults a ad children. We may l'air- i
ly 4go fi-ytlier, and say .that i \
( should have at least one outlet j
* for mining water and a family toilet.
Could we venture to expect
a l.ath, too? a
Yet millions' of American work
homes <io not even approach t
these modest requirements. In
lO.'M,. the Department of Com >
mo ice lmiclo a study of housing in j
01 typical cities, at least one in <
every state, covering 1,500.(1011
v?ttwcllinrr units. The frtllowinir (iy- i
uros are based only on that total.
and slio Id be mentally multi i
plied by -0 to,visualize the condition
fop the- entile ''country. <
More than 27."),OOP ot" th s i
homes . . . oVt r ont'-sixth . . . .
either needed major ropuiis oi ;
were unlit to. livj in.. Approximately
75,000 had no running, c
water; 202.OOI boasted no indoor
toilet; and .'ttnl.OOO la ked any-pm- i
vision for bathing; .1
In New York there are WlV.OO 1
inha! itcd -rooms whnh. are wir.,nlowiess.
many.of them the only 1
aeeommoilaliim- for entire- fami- I
lies. Th'.ee-fourths of all dwelling
unites in one New York e nsn; 1
tract have .no lit it. 57 percent n ? (
* bathing facilities, and (Hi pi rceiw--!
no toilets. Though many have
oecn 1 ondemned by city hca (. i !
c>r building authorities.- they as
. still occupied sintply because itidents
can find ttoj other place-t ? ,
huddle.
St. Loujs has a large area whet; ;
75 percent <jd' the houses'lack pi i
vate indoor toilets. Pittsburgh
shows nearly 11.000 houses out
of 25JHIO studied, whi.h elthei
netdid major repairs .or \it;ie on
jit to live in. One-seventh of th
Minneapolis . houses-'me' unlit l'o
habitation. . .
Two out of every th'e- dwell
ings in the cities analyzed by 11 > Department
of Commerce lacked
cither hot or cold running water
-and S pet cent, have neither. A C - I
tai of 17 percen' pos-e ; no pli-j
k vatc irdoor water closet, and olti
fourth no I?:tt hiutr 1'ariliij-s; Onethird
provide only- coal or woo I .
stoves for cooking.
This situation- can l>c duplicated
in literally every city through
out the t'niled States. Indeed i"'
is found in cities jrtul towns of any
size. Wayne, for example, is On '
of IMiiladelnhirt's sului 1-s. which .
are justly ielehratod us home com- t
inunities. Yet inttil the Housing
Division of I'WA stopped in a
f< w month.- iv-'o. it containc 1 ,
two-acre housing cesspool where
tin and wooden shacks sheltered '
101 people possessing only si*--*
outdoor toilets. i
These figufes give a sl.ight pic- '
lure of the physical extent-of ih ' 1
housing problem. Why do . two- '
i thirds of our industrial workers 1
even those lucky enough to have ?
had jobs during the depression.
continue to live in the slums? '
What can be. or should be, done
about it? How does the poison J
exuding from the festering slum- 1
affect the rest of lis? t

Cardui is a liquid medicine, sold
in 9-ounee bottles, with full directions
for use.
