No Worse Than Other Cities

These are the most perplexing ques-
tions with which modern civilization is
confronted. Since Chicago has been a
city we have drifted as regards these
questions. In this we have not differed
from other American cities.
Il think we can fairly assume that
our vice problem is exactly like that of
any American city. To exploit publicly
the details Oft can serve no useful end.
and such exploitation is not the purpose
of this commission proposition.
ION the other hand. exploitation may
do much harm by leading the uniformed
20 believe that conditions exist here
which are of recent origin or which are
worse than exist in other American
cities.
LAS a matter of fact, the conditions
incident to the vice problem in Chicago
a problem as old the city itself-are
better than they have ever been within
present-day memory. This, I think. will
be conceded. by all who are fully ac-
quainted with the facts. But We all want
better conditions if they can be had
