Children playing in backyard in slum area near capitol. This area inhabited by both white and Negro, Washington, D.C.

Capital slums to go under new low rent housing program. Washington, D.C., Nov. 30. Now that President Roosevelt has approved the $15,000,000 low rent housing program for the District of Columbia, such slum scenes as this will disappear from the 'city beautiful.' This picture was made within a stone's throw of the U.S. Capitol
