tack milionaiFes and men Of Big
Business who have dirtied their fin
gers with the dollars of prostitution.
The Committee of Fifteen, which
has few millionaiFes within its own
ranks, is not the first to discover the
wicked system by which property
owners shared in the profits of COM
meEeialized vice. The Chicago Vice
Commission found it out, and it's re-
port had this to say of such property
owners:
1.-THE first truth that the commits
sion desires to impress upon the citi-
zens of Chicago is the fact that pros
titutioH is a eoMMERcIALIZED
BUSINESS of large proportions with
tremendous profits of more than fff-
teen million dollars per year, con-
troIled largely BY MEN, not women.
Separate the male expIoiter from
the problem, and we minimize its ex-
tent and abate its fragrant outward
expression. In addition we check an
artificial stimulus which has been
given the business so that larger
profits might be made by men ex-
pIoiters.
1T is abhorent to the moral sense
of a community like Chicago-the
second largest city in the country
city rightly ambitious to stand high
in the worlds achievements for civic
and social bettermeRt-tha there
should be within its borders a group
or groups of men, vicious and igno-
rant to degree-who are openly and
defiantly breaking the laws of the
state, and bringing into i'll repUte the |
honor of the city, -..
SIN iuxtaposition with this group of |
professional male expIoiters stand |
ostensibIy respectable citizens, both |
men and women, who are openly |
renting and leasing property for ex-
orbftant sums, and thus sharing,
through immortality of investments, |
the profits from this BUSINESS. A

careful, ultra conservative STUDY OF
conditions in this municipality has
put the commission in possession of
absolute facts upon which to base
these conclusions. No language can
be too strong, no condemnation too
severe, for those who have brought
upon Chicago this intoIerable situa-
ton.
1.-THE court records show that prac-
ticaIIy no effort has been made dur
ing the past three years to prosecute
owners and real estate agents who
are leasing and renting property for
immoral purposes. The law affecting
these persons is dead letter.
"The reasons for this are very APP
parent, first, the indifference of the
public, and second, but perhaps most.
vital, because such property brings
an exoFbitant rate of interest on the
capital invested.
THESE artificial values in the Ias2
analysis are the basis of a great
many difficulties in connection with
the problem of the social evil. It
was shown that the main reason why
it is so difficult to suppress prostftu-
ton in connection with saloons was
because of the enormous profits
which are made from drinks in the
rear rooms and from the rental of
rooms over the saloon. The same
argument applies to designation
hotels.
"This difficulty is very apparent
when entire houses or apartments
are rented outright for this purpose.
On the West Side there are a NUM-
Der of properties which are practical
Iy worthless for legitimate purposes.
A business man endeaVored to buy a
lot on which was erected a frame

a house of ill-fame. The lot is go

PreSidGRt-EleCt Works Behind
Closed Doors

Trenton, N. j., Jan. 2.-For the sec
ond time during his administration,
Governor Wilson closed the big oak
door leading into his private office at
the state house today.
This was done, he said, because he
intended to devote the day to national
affairs rather than those relating
solely to New Jersey He spent the
forenoon debating letters. The only
other occasion upon which the door
was closed was when Sam Gordon, his
tonsorial artist, cut his hair.
President Gomez, of Cuba, sent the
governor by cable yesterday the fol-
lowing New Years greeting:
Fulfilling a duty of consideration
and courtesy, l have the honor Of
greeting you today, in my own behalf
and that of the government and people
of Cuba, with the sincerest wishes for
your personal welfare and the pros
perity of the American people"

Evidently Both Good and Bad
Weather Mixed

Yesterday the lusty infant, the New
Year, was stified by fog, which came
in quickly the night before as a sue
cessor to the sunshine that had daz-
zled the youngsters eyes on the first
day of his existence.
The change in the face of the
weather was complete The first day
brought almost ideal sunshine and
bright weather, while the second broke
the news in a decided manner so that
all may know that the New Year is
to have bad as we'll as good weather
Yesterdays fog at midday reminded
one of its London cousin.
Damp, clinging, penetrating atmos-
phere that made one SILVER to look At
it, much less feel it, was the kin
that was prevalent yesterday. But It
is all fulfilling the long distance
weather forecast sent out from Wash
ington the first part of the week to the
effect that the weather here would not
be cold this week, but rather warm and
damp.

GHOSTLY CREATURE HAS
Created Big SCARE
Many Claim to Have Seen

The scare prevailing over the al
legged presence in the residence sec
ton OF the city of a ''hugging mollie"
or nondescript spook was upon the
increase yesterday, and many were the
surmises as to the identity of the
creature in black" who is alleged to
parade the streets at night and strike
terror to the hearts of timid ones. Seg-
eral young men profess to have seCT
the strange, elusive creature, while
TWO Of the more yenturesome actually
gave chase, but it resulted in nothms
being 'ained, rs the spook is supros-
ed to have disappeared. The creature
is believed to be woman.
The midnight terror is said to haunt
Barlow, Taylor, College and Lee
streets mostly, as several have seen
the tall figure clad in black walking
aimlessly out in that section. The story
told that the creature had seized sew
eral pedestrians is probably eXagger-
ated.
Some profess to believe that the
creature is of unsound mind, and
under hallucination of looking for a
deceased relative takes the wierd mid
night strolls. At all events a whole
some scare is on, and the colOred
element of Americas is now safely al
home by shutdown.

SIMPLICITY Will
MARK WILSON'S
INAUGURATION
MAY WALK TO The CAPITOL
No POmp OR Show Desired
By PreSident-EIGCt

Princeton, N. j., Jan. 2.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson intimated that if it
were possible he would like to go
afoot between the White House and
capitol when he takes the oath of Of
fee as president of the United States.
He realizes, however, that the crowds
would make it impossible.
Jeffersonian simplicity the kind
that the president-elect would like to
emulate, he remarked, consisted, not
of a horseback ride, as some histo
rians have chronicled it, but merely
an transformations walk down Penn
sylvania avenue in the company of a
few citizens.
The story that Jefferson rode on
horseback to the capitol and hitched
ibis horse to post while ne went il
t. take the oath of office is not true,
said the governor, He was told that
Governor Sulzer walked to the capitol
at Albany.
Mr.. Wilson spoke approyingly of
this. He was asked if he had made
any plans for his Inauguration in this
connection.
Il had not thought out the method
at all. I have simply satisfied myself
With impressing the gentlemen on the
inaugural committee with the desire
to have the Inauguration as simple as
possible
The president-elect. it is expected
will go to Washington March 3, spend
ing the night at a hotel near The
white house he said today that
while he had not been able to visit
many of the newer public buildings,
erected in recent years, he believed
he would not get much time for
sightseeing"

CADILLAC'S ANNOUNCEMENT
 ARROUSES KEEN INTEREST
Motorist Eager 10 Know What 19l4
 Innovations POrtend

The automobile world always susceptible to changes and inno
 vations, has been put on tenter books by the preliminary an- nouncement of the Cadillac Motor 1 Car Company referring to certain progressive developments which will distinguish the 1914 Cadillac, | the exact nature of which will soon be revealed.
 Those active in the industry
 and laymen as welfare always keenly curious about contemplated
 motor car improvements and what they portend, but this interest is whetted to it's keenest edge when
 the Cadillac announces a new series because of the position the company occupies in the history and development of the motor car. The reason is obvious, conserva- tism has been coupled with fore sightedness. Henry M. Leland, advisory manager of the Cadillac,
 the founder and guiding spirit of
 the concern, is an extremely con-
 servative man with half a century
 of experience in the mechanical
 world, yet he has been called the
 youngest" man in the automo-
 bile industry today. In the affairs
 of the Cadillac there has been a
 wholesome fear of the whims of
 the fadist, and the merely tenn
 porary in innovations. But the company nevertheless, has from
 time to time played the role of
 pioneer and has inangurated sev-
 eral important epochs in the de- velopment of tho motor car. One
 of these epochs illustrates in an especially significant manner the reason for the public's attitude
 toward this company. It was two years ago that the Cadillac had
 the honor of being first to intro
 duce an automatic electrical crank
 ing and lighting system. It was
 a revolution in efficiency and com
 fort. As there have been' many
 other progressive features first
 developed in this car, the query is
 now naturally voiced each year. What will the Cadillac do?" The Cadillac company's con- servatism has not permitted it to
 make rash promises. Therefore, when it declares that it is about to
 inaugurate another new and pro-
 gressive development, the auto
 mobile world, remembering past performances, is on the qui vive
 to know just what these statements portend. Advertisement.
