tremely difficult to get cases against
such places. Warnings repeatedly
have been sent to the proprietors 81
these places and they nave been Wis
tied by the police from time to time,
but so far the necessary evidence
against them has been lacking.
No Bad Resorts.
From the standpoint OF houses of
i'll fame and other places used for
immoral purposes, Richmond is dis
tinctive among other Indiana cities
by the lax OF them
"Where the social evil, a problem
the world has never yet satisfactorily
solved, is seen at it's worst in Rich
mond is on our streets. With the
closing of all recognized houses of
i'll fame some years ago, and the en-
forcement of the policy of suppressing
all such places, the number of street
women has steadily increased. They
can not be prevented from walking
the streets unless they are actually
violating some law or ordinance. Some
take men to their homes, their board
ing houses or to the few places of i'll
repute, but it is a difficult task to
suppress such practices, for it is al
most impossible to secure convictions,
the provisions of the laws being so
drastic"
Mr. Gormon said the police had
records of but few so called kept"
women, but that information on this
phase of the social evil was extremely
difficult to obtain. Three such WOm-
en- and the men with whom they have
been living have been arrested the
last four months, and as in each case

formed by the mayor said the chief
Dances Are Responsible.
Mr. Gormon frankly charges many
Of the modern dances as being the
means for recruiting the ranks of the
street women "Public dance halls in
Richmond are as well conducted
as possible and are under
strict police supervision, but we can
not stop these bunny hug. bear cat
and tango dances, and many young
girls forfeit their good names by in
dulging in Them" the chief grimly re-
marked.
There is gambling in Richmond
and | expect always will be. for it
appears that the love of gambling is
inherent in all human beings. but the
old poker dens' and crap dens' are
things of the past" Mr.. Gormon CON

some public places gambling on the

An exact estimate, he said. could not
be made. since he has no way OF

City Attorney Bond explained the
plan made by Mayor Zimmerman. B
A. kennephol and himself for making
the appropriation.
For several years reports Of the
City Clerk and after him the City Con
trOller have shown shortage in the
Special Improvement fund. In 1912
when the books were examined by the
state board OF accountants this short
age was S2S,435.20. That year $4,000
was paid. This year it was reduced by
SO. 800. For 1914 the city budget con
tains an appropriation of $4,000 to be
paid into the fund
Balance Due $3.e35.2o.
This according to Bond leaves a bal
ance of $8,93520, which is due from
the city to the light plant funds The
appropriation of this money and the
payment to the light plant fund he eX-
planned would stop interest nov being
paid on the S8,935,2 20 and would wipe
out the Indebtedness to the light plant
fund.
The appropriation will provide for
payment from the general fund into
the light plant fund of this money
which was borrowed from the light
plant for the special Improvement
fund.
In written statement to the board
former City Attorney Gardner sug-
gested the issue of bonds bearing four
per cent, such bonds to be placed to
the credit of the special ImprOv ement

over for such fund. The board preferr-
ed the other plan.
