Burlington. Ia, oct. 19.-Organized
warfare on the traffic in girls was de-
cided upon today by the National Puri-
ty congress in the annual session here.
1t was shown that the white slave tTaf-
fic has grown to enormous proportions.
Clifford G. Roe, a Chicago attorney, in
an address, declared parental negli-
gence in the education of daughters;
flirting, undue ambition to live we'll,
and beggarly wages paid girls in big
cities, are responsible for the pOpula-
ton of the red light district.
The congress adopted the following
resolution:
The National Purity congress here
by records its qualification at the ac-
tivity of national and state authorities
against the lOathsome. terrible COM

necessary measures to end the traffic in
girls, the worst disgrace to civilization

The better you are prepared for in

shorter hours and for higher wages
necessary to meet the increased cost Of
