INSANITARY HOMES
OVERCROWDING WELLINGTON
NURSES' ASSN. REPORT
Some of the worst examples recorded of domestic overcrowding in Wellington and its suburbs, and of people livirg in old. uncomfortable and insanitary buildings, are cited in a leport based on tlic observations of meinber.s of the Wellington branch of the New Zealand Trained Nurses' Association. It is in these dirty verminous places that the nurses find their patients. Poverty, they slated, is not the general cause of the squalor, but inability to find anything belter, and there is a tendency for the women in such places to lose heart.
