were that the election at which the
amendment creating the county was
adopted by the people was not such
a general election as 10 provided for
in the constitution, and that the CON
stitution provides that here shall
not be more than l45 counties in the

eral William Wooten for the respon-
dent to the writ

for parliament on the issue that men
who live on the traffic in women should

Men and women, both In England and
America. are living too fast, he thought
and he also expressed the belief that
women who wore fine clothing were re-
sponsible for some Of the immortality He
sad that the minimum wage law in Eng
land has not worked we'll because 1T
does not apply to all women in all con-
ditions.
Stanley Finch. the government white
slave" Investigator, told of the efforts
of the Department of Justice to suppress
the interstate traffic in women for i'm
moral purposes. He said that extraordi-
nary measures had to be taken, and that
already the bureau has agents in go
cities and Is rapidly charging the scope
OF its work Data have been collected on
about 23,O00 women. he said. The work
OF investigating how women are led into
immoral HIVES Is now being taken up,
he explained. and will be completed soon.
Minimum Wage Law.
Mr.. Finch declared that In 500 convic-
lions for violations of the white slave
law 1t has not been found that the
victims had been influenced by low wages
In many instances. He explained that so
far as he can see a minimum wage
law would not have done much good.
'.The great majority of these women"
he continued, come from domestic en-
ployment, homes, hotels, restaurants
and few from factories and stores. The
way in which most of these women and
girls are led astray seems to be through
marriage or promise Of marriage.
Mr. Finch said that the government in
vestigators estimate that there were last
year 25Oo0 men in this country engaged
in procuring women for white slavery

Lieut. Gov. O'Hara then said that the

ctded that every working woman is en-

in 1912 three girls thirteen years old in
the District had become mothers, and
that four children fourteen years old had
borne children.
Unlawful Places said DR.. Wood
ward, ARE the morasses from which
diseases come. State education is the

ut has appeared to me-, he continued,
that the minimum wage would materially
index to the condition under which some
OF these people live. / do not believe
that the minimum wage would matheially
change the situation"
Illegitimate Births.
He gave statistics showing that more
than 10 per cent of all the recorded
births in the District last year were lille
gitimate. the mothers being between the
ages of thirteen and twenty years of
age in many cases. The majority of the
cases were found among the colored pop
ulation he declared. He said that he
did not feel that this was because of a
particularly low standard of morals among
colored people, but because their living
conditions are generally worse.
DR.. Woodward said that at present the
state is turning many children out into
the world from the schools as graduates
who are not at all prepared for their
Iife's work 1t is the duty Of the state to
fit boys and girls to earn a living wage,

Modern Songs and Dances.

What do you think of mothers who
allow their children to sing modern songs
and dance modern dances?" asked Mr.
O'Hara-
II think much work must be done in
the homes" she replied. II think one
thing the matter is the reaction that has
set in since we took down the bars Of
propriety which existed in our mothers
days / think that nowadays people give
their children too much license too much
liberty They don't know enough about
where they go. l think the solution rests
largely In the home instead of In the
legislatures. We don't hear much today
about high principles. The home spirit
seems entirely changed
Mrs. Adolph Kahn, president Of the Al
lance Of Jewish Women, said she thought
it unjust to place the responsibility for
bad morals upon working women and
girls. Just as many girls who do not
work go wrong, she declared. She said
she thought most store girls are moral.
81 believe the remedy lies in strength
ening the character of both boys and
girls" she continued. u think this is
almost entirely question of temptation
think that often working girls are
stronger morally than well-to-do girls
