Abstract
criminality. A comprehensive policy for housing improvement should begin with a continuous leveling up of the standards of our poorer housing through progressively raising the minimum requirements of construction, sanitation and maintenance established by legislation. Such policy will inevitably include also for America, as for European cities, special schemes for slum demolition and for the construction, by proper agencies, of wholesome private dwellings for families of small income. It should further promote, as rapidly as feasible, the decentralization of our industries and the concomitant decentralization of residences of the workers. But such a policy for decentralizati n, to be effective, must involve community planning, as well as the construction of private homes for the industrial workers.
