NO WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC, GOVERNMENT AGENTS FIND
Innocent XOn Not Ent Here From Abroad They SayIlo Already Vicious Sought
mmisraiOn Authorities Report Indifference Other Countries
to Treaty Protecting Alien Girls

Washington. ID. C.-That the treaty
ratified on March |. 1905. for the re-
preston of the traffic in white WON
en-" is practically worthless to this
Government in preventing the migra-
tion OF alien procurers and prosti-
tutes, is the conclusion of Commits
sioner-General keefe. of the Bureau
OF Immigration. in a report trans
mitted to the Senate by President
Taft.
Mr.. Keefe moi only takes the posi-
tion that the treaty is worthless. but
he adds that practically no co-opera-
tion at present can be expected OF the
signatory Powers as regards the en-
forcement OF the immigration laws
with which some of the Powers are
found TO be out of sympathy"
The bureau made an effort to as
certain the degree OF cooperation to
be expected Of the signato-ies. The
following Powers were communicated
with: England. Germany, Austria
Hungary. Belgium. Spain. Russia,
portugal. Sweden, Denmark. Holland
Canada, Bermuda and Brazil. Re
plies were received from the majority
OF those countries. The replies dis
closed that no steps could be expected
to prevent the free passage from their
country to this side of the profess
sional prostitute or procurer who con-
stitute the bulk of white slave traffic
in this country.
The procuring OF innocent women
and girls for purposes OF debauchery, "
he said, has seldom IL ever come to
the attention OF the bureau. and as
1t Is the purpose of the treaty TO pre-
vent such procuration the treaty's
usefulness ends there.
The present immigration law is
not extensive and drastic enough in
terms to effectually prevent further
additions to the already large num-
bers OF alien prostitutes and procur-
ers in this country, and does not pro-
VIDE adequate means to rid the
country at large of those aliens who
are here unlawfully, and in particular
does not reach what is the very root
OF the evil, the free passage to and
fro OF those engaged in it."

st. Louis, May 5.-Addressing a
Joint meeting of the Farmers union

ject of conservation, almost the du.
! plicate of his Chicago speech March
II. He declared the term covered a

But as concerns congress at this

solves itself into the necessity of pass.
ing at once the bill which will give to
the executive unQuestioned authority

other purposes. With this power in
the hands of the president of the
United States we can sit comfortably

means of disposing of the great public
domain to the benefit of present and
future generations.''
The first great subject of conserva.
ton, he declared, had to do with hu.
man life. In this connection he again

bureau of health.

Speaking of the improvement of riy.
