Moral Question

Mayor Induced to Stop Sales Of Liq-

Same clas. - Some Plain Talk In
duIaed In.
Special to 1,mes-Republican

Sioux City, Jan. Ga general dis
cussion of the problem of the harlot.
i'm which already ali Episcopal rector
a club woman, an editor and mayor
have rome on record in the newspapers,
As lust now interesting the people or
Sioux City.
The trouble began when Rev. Ralph
p. Smith, rector of st. Thomas Epls-
ccpal church, a man of plain speech
and we'll developed ideas, addressed the
CITY Federation of Women's clubs on
.'The Moral Standards of City, and
was reported in sensational headlines
in an evening newspaper as having
advocated the contiscation of any We
hicles in which prostitutes might ride
thru the streets of Sioux City.
Rev. Mr.. Smith Indignantly asserts
that Ne was misrepresented, but, at
say II te, Mrs. ]. w. Hartray, at a
,bseduent meeting Of the Political
i equality club, roundly scored the rec
tor for giving woman the worst of it.
Her talk was outspoken and was In
the nature of a plea for fair play for
the harlot." Mrs. Hartrayf took the
stand that the men who support the
prostitutes by patronizing their
houses are no better than the prosti-
tutes themselves, and that there would
be no more excuse for confiscating
the gay equipages of the prostitutes
than for confiscating the equipages of
the men who visit the houses.
Then George D. Perkins. in an edi-
torial in The Journal, in which he
called spade spade, came out for
the enforcement of the law against
the sale of liquors in houses of pros
slitution. He urged that the use OF
liquor in these places was responsible
for much of the sin of another sort.
He advocated also the segregation of
the prostitutes.
Mayor w: G.. Sears then gave his
view Of the situation. He was inclined
to agree with Mr.. Perkins as to the
advisability, of keeping liquor out Of
the houses, after saloon hours thirty
men who might otherwise never go
there, and not because he believes
liquor
The mayor would get after the land
lords who rent houses to the people.
He suggested the advisability Of the
legislature passing law which would
prevent a landlord renting place for
purposes of sin, except at a reduced
rental. The mayor says the landlords
now charge gamblers and prostitutes
exorbitant rentals and that these land
lords put obstacles in the way of an
executive who might be inclined to
deal i1ar5hly with these violators of
the law.
Following upon the declarations Of
Mr.. Perkins and Mayor Sears, Rev. HI.
Herbert Sawyer, superintendent of the
woodburn County Anti-Saloon league
brought actions against seventeen
houses of prostitution, charging the
illegal sale Of liquor. and he says he
will proceed against every such house
in Sioux City. 1t is impossible, Of
course, for such places to comply with
the Martin law.
