Synopsis
Excerpt from Overcrowding and Defective Housing in the Rural Districts
When we first began to investigate this subject it Was hard to believe that real overcrowding existed in the country dis tricts, but the more the subject was studied the more the fact became ap parent. I little imagined that we had conditions in our own small towns and villages almost as bad as I had seen in the great East Side on Manhattan Island. Yet why not? Greed for gold is just as strong in the country speculator as in the city millionaire, and the owner Of a few lots is going to make the most of them if he has a chance.
