Item consists of a typescript copy of an article prepared by Carleton Stanley discussing the "disgracefully large proportion of Halifax houses [that] may be called 'slum dwellings'" and the general poor state of "housing conditions in Halifax", stating that "Halifax [...] would seem to have had very little town planning" and condemning city contractors for their construction of subpar "so-called houses". The piece was submitted to Mr. Gaul of the Halifax Chronicle.
