have a great deal Of sympathy for them I re-
member when 1 youngster coming
home from Havana on board ship with old
man named Zimmerman. One starlit night
deck the old man and got confidential, and
expressed my verdant opinion rather strongly
on a topic of which I was then wholly ignorant.
Old Zimmerman looked at me pityingly. Boy
said he. I want TO tell you something. There
are more kinds of virtue than in the world
l have learned the truth of that aphorism
among the fallen of the Ghetto.
While they are physically Unchaste. they
have many noble characteristics; in fact,
they are women good, bad and Indifferent. Just
like other women. When they don't take to
drink or opium they really live more decenty
than they have ever lived in their squalid homes
and they are treated better by the men they live
with than they have ever been treated before.
when they escape the drinking habit they
often marry good men, and become good wives
and mothers. I have known a number Of in
stances where men have come here from the
West fallen in love with such girls. married
them and taken them 10 a new environment,
where their pasts are unknown, and happy mar
ried life ensues.
II insist that our penal statutes against pros
titution debauch our system. You can't stop
this evil What can be done for the unfortunate
women who are leading this life? Nothing.
Only protect them from the evils of our present
svstem Raiding them only makes the evil
more fragrant What we must do is to build

are the cadet cases. The Sadie Wolff case, As
you know, has been the most notorious. But,
you know, all such cases must be sfted to the
bottom, and we often find that the Ghetto peo-
pie are sadly deceived in their belief in their
daughters. Girls frequently go the wrong road
for economic reasons. because they see other
girls who are gaining large sums of money and
who have elegant clothes and jewels, while they
have only the pitiful wages earned at the fac

The position of our late grand jury
virtually is, that enough honest wit
nesses cannot he found in Grant par
ish to convict and punish men for
violating the law by the sale Of liq-
nor. They seem to overlook the Tact
that good many violators have
been punished in Grant parish for
this oiiense. 1t would be we'll to en-
courage sentiment along this line.
With little more energy and SINGER
ity on the part OF those entrusted
with. the enforcement OF the laws, we
feel sure there will be very little trou-
bic in getting the most Of the vio-
lators, and that will give all the re-
lief needed.
