Oppose Certain Establishments.

The conference was thoroughly informal
one and many of the ladies present stated
their experiences with employment agen-
cies. all of them insisting that they were
willing to help honest and decent institu-
lions. but that they would protest against
granting of licenses in all cases where the
character of the applicant had been shown
to be questionable.
The main point involved in the charges
against certain employment agencies is that
they were instrumental in procuring girls
for immoral purposes. the evidence to this
effect having been procured in a unique way
by woman agent Of the company, who,
for the purpose, assumed the role of a de-
tective. She attired herself in shoddy cloth
ing and visited proprietors Of agencies
whom they suspected with violating the
laws, and after asking them If they could
supply her with pretty girls for certain pur-
poses. obtained admissions from them the
nature of which removed all doubt from
the minds of the members of the associa-
ton as to their guilt. The admissions taken
by the agent were submitted to the Com
missioners today in the form Of an affidavit.
One Agents Statement.
This agent, relating her experience in in
terviewing these proprietors. said when she
went to one proprietor of an employment
agency the extent of his conversation was
as follows:
II can get you plenty of girls for dis
reputable houses. both white and colored.
We do this business right along. Nothing
new to us, as no one can stop us. because
we have license and keep quiet. This
kind of business does not go on our books.
No one bothers where help is sent We have
a lot of girls in houses in Washington now.
We have yearly contracts with the owners
Of disreputable houses to supply them with
q certain number of girls year for $50"
The agent also reported that the owners
of disreputable houses commission employ
ment agents to scout around for particu-
lar girls that certain patrons Of their places
want lodged there. She cited ene case
where a pretty fourteen-year-Old girl was
proenred for immoral purposes in this man
ner, through the resourcefulness Of local
employment agency.
