Excerpt from A Model Tenement House Law Wherever tenement reform is undertaken much time and effort are usually given to the preparation of a housing law. This is a difficult task, accomplished only after much labor by one or two public-spirited citizens who, as a rule, come to it unprepared. When put into practise it frequently develops that many important matters have been overlooked, that some parts have been so drawn as not to accomplish what was intended, that others are so involved that they are understood neither by the officials who have to enforce them nor by the citizens who are called upon to obey them. The usual procedure heretofore has been to take the New York law as a base, comparing it in some instances with similar laws of other cities, and then to make such changes as seem desirable. This method has not proved very satisfactory. The present New York law when originally enacted, nine years ago, was comparatively simple - today, because of frequent amendment, it is rather complicated.
