want to but because it Is best for
them to do so.
When have these backward=lookins
and inward looking men ever stopped
to consider what might happen here
in New York If those who have not
should take it into their heads TO
make common cause against those
who have. Nothing but desire to
arouse thoughtless rich men to a
sense of their danger would induce
me to suggest this.
Suppose a governor and a general
assembly in the state of New York
should repeal the statute of descents
for real and personal property and
the statute with reference to the max
ing Of wills, on their death how
much vested interest would any rela-
tive have in the property which fen
from their neryeless hands at the
hour of dissolution?
"The right to inherit and the right
to devise are simply privileges given
by the state to it's citizens. Let back
ward-looking and inward-looking men
read the returns of the last election.
Let them put on masks and go down
into the east side and hear what
people are saying about them Let
them not dream that what has been,
forever will be.
Let those who started and are
keeping up the theory of special privl-
lege which finds its sap and vigor In
prohibitive tariff duties, believe me
when say that change has come
across the spirit Of the republic. Men
are refusing longer to look up that
favors may be handed down and be-
ginning to look around TO see how
benefits may come to them.
1.-The backward-looking and inward
locking man may be able temporarily
t., check the onward movement of the
forward-looking man. but If they do,
it may result in either paternalist;e
system of government which can only
endure upon the basis of ignorance
and serfdom, or in a socialistie sys-
tenn, which will destroy both the OPP
portunity and the desire Of man to
exercise his natural and acquired en-
dowments.

prolonged fast.
Mrs. Pankhurst is very feeble to-
night, but her condition is steadily
improving, it was learned, and her
rapid convalescence is expected.
Throughout the day she was literally
fed with chicken broth, but her physl.
clan not yet has allowed her to eat
any solid food. From the best infor-
nation obtainable, Mrs. Pankhurst is
suffering from nothing but the effects
of nine days fast, such effects as
such a period OF starvation would
have on any woman OF her years. She
was not forcibly fed while in Hollo-
way jail and has no organic ailment.
30 far as is known.
The problem of Mrs. Pankhurst's
future is worrying her associates in
the Women's Social and Political I'm
ion. In the ordinary course of events,
under the parole plan inaugurated by
McKenna. she will be returned to
prison when her health is restored
thereupon to begin the tenth day Of
her three year sentence for the Wal
ton Heath explosion. Her friends say
that she would be sure to hunger
strike again, and the ticket of leave
process would be repeated. II nothing
interviewed, it might thus take Mrs.
Pankhurst ten years to serve her
three years in jail. and the suffrag-
cites believe that would surely kill
her. Meanwhile, the militants are
trying to ascertain if the home office
would object TO Mrs. Pankhurst
leaving the country
They say she might go to Paris and
remain there with her daughter,
Christabel. WHO is en- exile from Lon
don, or she might go to America,
where she has invitations at her urs-
posal. They point out that In France
Mrs. Pankhnrst might keep out of
English prisons and still direct the
campaign of British militants, but
they do not know that Mrs. Pankhurst
would consent to run away nor If the
government would allow her to.

AT the CONCLUSION OF the vigorous
young Investigators third talk before
500 Of these representatives women in
! Sherry's today, he was surrounded
by groups of converts to the cause,
to how they could aid individually in
stamping out the traffic in young girls
land commercialized vice in general
1t was one of the most remarkable
demonstrations witnessed in this city
| in many years. These were not fad
dfsts and new women eager to get
their names before the public or to
plunge into civic activities of any
sort that promised new sensations.
They were for the most part gray
haired, quiet women Of the old-fash-
Toned honey sort, whose early
training and parental doctrines had
made toward the suppression in their
homes of any sort of Information
about the evils of the underworld.
1t is upon these women and the
millions like them throughout the
country said Roe tonight, that the
successful issue of the campaign
against white slavery and commercial
lied vice depends. 1t is true also
that much of the blame for existing
conditions must be placed at their
door, for it has been by this very at
titude in cultured society of never
permitting a reference to degraded
lives that so little has been done
against this greatest menace to mod
ern civilization.
Their eager response to my revela-
lions were typical of the awakening
that is now going on throughout the
nation. The white slave traffic has
become the national theme of discus
sion and publicity and it is only
through publicity, wise legislation,
rigid enforcement Of the laws and
general education upon sex matters
that cemmercialized vice is to be
stamped out.
Our association, which is composed
LOT merger of twenty-eight civic
organizations that had for years com
patted vice in an unsystematic and,
therefore, unsuccessful way, has been
responsible for new Chicago. We
are soon to publish a report of our
investigations in New York that will
undoubtedly lead to a cleaning-up of
this vice ridden city such as history
has never known. 1t can be safely as
serted that Chicago today is the purest
big city in the country, so far as com
mercialized vice and white slavery
are concerned.
Within the past few years we have
obtained more than 400 convictions of
procurers in Chicago, closed up the
red light district and are now work
ing successfully for the stamping out
Iof the scattered disorderly houses
and apartments and the gathering
places of street and their men de-
lpendents."
| In his talks to the women who gath
cred in Sherrys exclusive Fifth
avenue ballroom, Roe did not mince
words, and his plain, unvarnished tale
of commercialized sin took his hear
ers by storm. He was applauded en-
Enthusiastically when he pleaded for the
Esingle standard of morals and urged
/ his hearers to aid the work
AS further indication of how
widespread is the agitation against
white slavery, Roe told of his coming
tour of the south where he has been
invited to talk in many big univers-
tiles and before civic societies. He
left tonight fo- Ithaca, N. Y. where
( he was to speak In Cornell Univers-
Eity. Tuesday he will address the
students of Yale.
