he was so drunk at the time that he

The hotel clerk, summoned as a wit

and related the same story Of the crap
game and the attack as he had told
the two policemen.
The recorder said Doyle's attitude
forced him to dismiss the gaming cases
although he was satisfied all of the men
were guilty.
However, he fined Doyle $25.75 fol

These are only a few of statements
of those in Atlanta, which can be du-

No shadow of doubt exists that there
Is fearfully close relation between tn,

wages paid to working girls and women.
But the pessimist loses sight of the
fact that, while since the time DR.. San
ger made his investigation so years ago,
the number of wage earning women
has increased by leaps and bounds. I'M
til now there are 100000 in this coun-
try: each year ii has become more and
more difficult for the white SLAYER to
get his wares Lecky's hopeless pic
ture is more than offset by the eternal

Blocking the SLAYER
1t requires all OF the ingenuity of
the white SLAYER, the corruption of the
politician and the foul wealth of the
men behind the scenes to keep the traf-
tic alive, despite the poverty Of women
| and the supposed depravity of men.
And it is dying all over the world,
being gradually choked by the awaken
| ing conscience of men.
England has Just put into force a
law which provides logging for the
white SLAYER and also logging for the
landlord, under certain conditions.
FlogginS for the landlord in staid and
conservative England, An exodus Of
white slavers has set in for the more
genial climate Of France
But in France they are confronted
with the fact that the commissions
there have reported in favor Of the sup
preston Of prostitution. Even in that
country the day Of the onslaving of
women to enrich criminal men is at
an end
In Atlanta we are still Offering help
to the women who wish to return to a
decent life. We try first OF all to get
back her health. Next we find the
work for which she is suited and try
