I am informed that, in the premises in question, structural alterations are necessary if any of the standard types of domestic shelter is to be provided. The consent of the owners of the property to such alterations is required, and it is the fact that in a great many of those cases the property owners have not yet given any indication of their views. I understand that the corporation are contemplating further efforts to secure agreement, and I should prefer to say nothing more until I have information as to the measure of success that attends these further efforts.
