Aronovici, Carol

Description

A survey carried out at the request of the St. Paul Association of Commerce. After visiting more than 5,000 dwellings, Wilder researchers concluded that housing conditions were "a menace to the health, safety and privacy of thousands of St. Paul people." The findings from the report led to the enactment of the first St. Paul housing ordinance in March, 1918.
