n advsrtises to the world that it has
solved the vice question. This is a
joke
So declares Samuel Zane Batten, Of
Philadelphia, who recently was in At
lanta and made a study Of the vice
situation. He declared to-day that
Atlanta is morally worse than it was
q year and a half ago, when it had
segregated vice. In speaking Of the
present condition that EXISTS in At

"A little over a year ago, when the
segregated district was maintained,

What Or. Batten Claims.
According to DR.. Batten, he made
his investigation when ne together
with a Dr. Bailey, OF Philadelphia,

The interview which is credited to
him follows:

Atlanta ne had been solicited by wom-
en- nineteen times on a single street

Atlanta is more immoral and wicked
than San Francisco in its wickedest
