Is Indicted

The arrest OF Mrs. Mary C. Vaughn,
member OF the Women's Political
league, is expected today as the result
of an indictment returned against her

charge of attempted grand larceny.
The indictment followed the presen-
tation OF testimony concerning a
promissory note for 5000 given her by
Judge r. NJ. widney Of Los Angeles
for the supposed purpose OF having
dismissed white slavery charge
against his son, Arthur widney.
Judge widney told the grand jury
that he suspected Mrs Vaughn was
trying to blackmail him, and SO gave
her a duplicate OF the note, turning
the original over to District Attorney
Fickert.
Mrs Vaughn declared on the wit
ness stand that the money she sought
from Judge Widney was for Vivian
Lyons. to enable the latter to recover
pawned jewelry, and accused the Wild
neys of Offering her $500 for the use
of her alleged influence with the
courts through the league. Accord
ing to Judge Widney's testimony,
Mrs. Vaughn told him she had man
aged to secure a postponement OF the
case against Arthur b Widney Ar
thur Widney testified that overtures
had been made to him by Mrs. Vaughn
to have the note raised from $500 to
$4,000.
Mrs. Lyons denied any knowledge
Of Mrs yaughn's desire to get the
money so that the former could re-
cover the jewelry.

DOORS OF VICE OPEN
THAT ALL MAY ENTER

JAMES Fl. BARRY, Naval on
Ger of Customs think Judge
Van Fleet is right in saying that
the Diggs- -Caminetti crime was
one Of opportunity" 1 suppose
by opportunity" the Judge means
all the doors to vice open to in
vite them in, such. for instance.
as the open saloon and the easy
road house. The laxity of social
conditions" which the Judge de-
plores must certainly be equally
deplored by all who respect wom-
anhood. not TO say anything of
manhood
The laxity of parental control
referred to by the court should.
1t seems to me. IL applicable to
the women in the case. equally
apply to the men. Both have
been made to suffer for their
wrongdotng, the women hence
forth being considered as out
casts of society and the men con-
victed felons.
How will IT fare with million
aire Bixby of Los Angeles ac-
cused of being a degenerate and
OF unspeakable crimes against
young girls2 He certainly is not
a victim of society. but society
shuns his victims while placing
its protecting arms around him.
The woman who aided him In his
crimes is already in the peniten-
tiary. He is no less guilty; he ia
more guilty than Diggs and Cam
inetti- He is a man of family
who stands high socially and is
a pillar of the church. Lack OF
parental control certainly can not
be pleaded in his case.

The Philips q Van Crden COM

The Neal Publishing company, which
Is printing the index to the Great

also wrote to Zemansky that their
office is IN danger from the press
feeders and has asked for a detail OF
police.
The award OF the printing contract

Improvement
Education. proper home infiu-
ences, municipal dance halls and
a careful scrutiny of the financial
conditions OF our working classes
Will do away. In a large measure,
with the complained OF resorts.
1t would be most fitting. in my
Judgment, for the women's clubs
and associations of San Francisco
to appoint committees to fnvesti-
gate the economic conditions of
women wage earners. this being
imperatively their first and most
important political duty.
Our moral standards are found
ed on economic conditions. and
whether we like 1t not, regulated
by them.
Women who work in canneries
are very poorly paid. their chill
dren are cared for during labor
hours by charitable people, the
amount earned by the mothers Is
meager and disproportionate to
their labor. and the Gamers and
the Gamers associations become
richer every year.
The next step In this campaign
should be TO investigate the hous-
ing OF the working classes in
order to prevent the spread OF
tenement abuses. The women
should insist on the appointment
by the board of supervisors OF a
committee to conduct such an in
vestigation in conjunction with
them.

SORORITIES BLAMED

MRS. &. W. EICHBAUM. presi-
dent of the Girls High School
Alumnae association-Much is due
to laNity of social conditions. but
fortunately that is being remedied
just now, to certain extent, by
the conviction Of these men.
There is no reason in a mans
committing a wrong because some
one else has done it before him
but the present laxity gives
semblance Of excuse to weak
selfish man.
great many people feel that
at the present time there is en-
tirely too little control of girls
and l speak as one having sknow1-
edge, as am the mother Of two
daughters.
1t must be realized that many
mothers In comfortable circuna-
stances and of good social posi-
tion do not give their girls
enough attention. Bridge or other
social demands take up much Of
their time. and they actually do
not know in many instances
where their daughters are nor
with whom they are.
That. of course. does not mean
that I am excusing men for their
behavior because the girls are
not properly trained.
Women OF the better classes
in fact. Of all classes-must wake
up to the fact that as long as a
young woman is under their roof
they should have complete super
vision. or at least knowledge, of
her goings and her comings and
of her companions.
