[The Cost of Shelter by Ellen H. Richards]@TWC D-Link bookThe Cost of Shelter CHAPTER IV 6/15
Hitherto the erratic fancy of would-be tenants, the dissatisfaction with the arrangements provided, has made building _en masse_ difficult.
As long as the builder was called upon to suit those who had lived in houses of their own for many years his task was difficult, but now he will have to do with the young people who know no other life and who will more readily fall in with the standards set by the house itself. For this very reason those who have social welfare at heart must come to the rescue, and devise and put up samples, of the best that modern science can offer, to rent for $300 to $500 a year.
Let any one who loves his kind, if he have a talent this way, not wrap it in a napkin, but give it to the builder and the philanthropist to materialize.
Now is the time to set standards for the next thirty years.
The electric car is opening new country as never before.
