There are no statistics on where the hot dog . sellers eat. | Even inocuous electric grills, “ boot | legged" into apartments licensed as nou-housekepping, offer the New Yorker possibilities of trouble. The building code restricts cooking to apartments under the supervision of the tenement house department, but | it is estimated that violations in apart- : meut hotels and rooming houses num ber 10,000. Most of the violations are said to be in the butler's pantries of fashion able midtown apartment hotels and in the combination bath room-kitchen- ] cttes of the supposedly more artistic » Greenwich Village.
