Deny Apartment Evil Suspicious Tenants Barred
Real estate agents and managers in Washington deny Dr Woodward's claim that every apartment house holds at least one questionable woman. William H Saunders head of the Real Estate Brokers Association says records are checked and evictions pursued to maintain high character buildings. Saunders says some evils exist but are promptly corrected and tenants aid in screening others to keep apartments free of suspicions. Dr Woodward says he was misunderstood and that not all buildings have undesirable tenants.
