Two prizes of $1,000 each, four of $500 each, and two of $250 each will be awarded after June 15 for designs for the block bounded by Rutgers, Madison, Jefferson and Monroe streets. Designs are to be sent to the commission at Room 302, Hall of Records. The judges will be Allan Robinson, Alfred E. Marling, Edgar A. Levy, Frank Mann, tenement house commissioner; Clarence S. Stein, State Senator Charles C. Lockwood, State Senator John J. Dunni gan, Andrew J. Thomas, Burt Fenner, Robert D. Kohn, Lil lian Waid and Alexander M. Bing. The need of greater comfort as well as additional living space is emphasized by the commission, which calls attention to the fact that most tenements were constructed before the present building laws were passed. Of the 982,926 individual apartments in the city 587,851 were built more than nineteen years ago. Some of the defects of present tenement houses set forth in the announcement of the competition are: "Lack of light and air, insufficient and foul plumbing, lack of privacy, which endangers decency and health; the absence of recreational spaces, dreary and unwholesome environment and lack of proper fire protection." Unless more rapid progress is made, the commission de clares, it will require nearly a century to wipe out the present evils. Governor Smith has given his approval to the prize competition plan.
