Grand Jury Lauds
Chiefs Vice Crusade.

The Grand Jury's findings on the
vice situation as announced at the
close of the session Wednesday aft
ernoon, warmly commended the po-
lice department for it's vice crusade
and advocated a continuance along
the lines that are now being follow
ed by Chief Beavers.
The expected criticisms Of certain
features of the police department
work in its connection with the vice
problems were not forthcoming: The
jurors apparently were not able to
verify sufficiently the Il accuse you"
proclamation of Carl HutCheson, who
openly charged that immoral resorts
were receiving protection and that
Chief Beavers and Chief Lanford
were responsible for the condition.
The other letters and affidavits sub
mitted to the Grand Jury purporting
to show protected vice also were not
of sufficient weight to warrant &C
ton. The jurors are understood to
have entertained the belief that many
of the communications were written
for the purpose Of discrediting the
police and not actually with a desire
to better conditions.

lice officials of knowledge of the ex-
istence Of vice in Atlanta and their
failure to take steps to wipe it out.

CHIEF is TOLD
Of TRAFFIC
IN GIRLS
Business Man Gives Names Of
Five Places Of Vice-Says
Police Were Notified,

Chief of Police Beavers wednesday
was placed in possession of starting
information of an organized plan for
the ruin of young girls which is said
to have been formed with the con-
nivance Of the police and by them
encouraged and protected.
A prominent business man was the
informant. He did not make gem
eral accusation, but entered into spe-
cific details, giving in every instance
names streets and street numbers.
The story is thu most sensational
brought to the attention of CHIEF
Beavers in the police scandal which
already has resulted in the suspension
of eight policemen.
Detectives Put on Case.
The Chief, on receiving the details
OF the alleged plot for the debauchlng
OF young girls, at once placed de-
tectives on the case with Instructions
to verify every charge contained IN
the startling communication.
Five places are mentioned by the
business man. Into one Of them on
principal street, almost in the heart
of the city, It is alleged that two no
torious women daily have decoyed
from ten to twelve girls ranging IN
age from IL to Is years,
The child victims, the Information
states, after a few minutes are led
through the rear door of this building
into another house, which is described
as "a well-known designation place.
Says He Told Police.
The business man represented to
the Chief that he had made complaint
of the conditions to the police, but
that. significantly enough, the inmates
Of the house were tipped off," His
conclusion was that the police them
selves warned those conducting the
place.
The Chiefs informant told also the
names of clubs where. he said, police
men and detectives were in the habit
of obtaining drinks.
Chief Beavers said "Wednesday that
the mans story was being thoroughly
investigated and that if it were found
to be true the officers involved would
be suspended and charges fled against
them before the Police Commission
