Mrs. E. Van Hood, Editor
George W. Truett StirS "A Great Au-
dience in Dallas. Texas, on the
Menace of the Social Evil

The wholesome influence of Police
Chief Beaver and his crusade in At
lanta has reached far beyond the
limits of his City and state. DR..
George W. Truett, known as the
Chrysostem of the Lone Star state,
delivered the following magnificent
address on the subject at a great
meeting called recently by the citi-
Zens of Dallas:
We have an issue before u.s." he
said. that will not admit Of idle and
tOothless generalities. What is that
issue? Let us drag it out from its
lair and look at it. 1t is that the city
of Dallas should segregate a num-
Der of prostitutes in a certain sec
ton, against the laws of the state,
and give them legal protection in
such segregation. 1t is that the city
of Dallas shall go into partnership
with such a CHASTITY proposition.
sh oder to think of it. | am I'M
alterably opposed to that PROPOSE
ton from every angle under heaven.
First, it is illegal-and the Off
GERS of this country are sworn to en-
force the laws. The highest courts
Of the land have declared their illeg-
ality. 1t is proposed that, in the face
of such Illegally, we shall violate
the law. Are we to shrug our shout
ders and with wink and nod, ad-
nit that We are a city of law break
ers? | shall not stand for that
minute The overwhelming major
ity of the people of this city wish
the laws enforced. There is nothing
50 menacing to this fair land of ours
as the spirit of lawlessness. Like
pestilential blight it stalks across
the land day and night. You make
a mOckery of the law-yOu shrug
your shoulders at the laW-and
what? You impart a contagion of
Iawlessness that will make all life
and all property uncertain. 1t is
the business OF the officers. not to
decry the law. but to enforce it. To
say that the law cannot be enforced
is 10 say that the city of Dallas is in
capable of self government. and I'll
not say that. My city is capable of
self-gOVernment.

is it expedient. is it customary, is it
unpopular, but is it right. Every
thing abiding in civilization is
grounded in morality.
You legalize and protect a segre-
gated district of vice and the whole
city is in the business OF making de-
generates. 4 man is responsible for
all the harm he does indirectly. We
are accessories to the crime if we
give it legal status; we are particeps
criminis
If men are unwilling to run a
house of prostitution. but are will
ing to rent their property for such
purposes, their guilt is greater than
that of the prostitutes.
You fling in my face that church
men do this. Give us the facts. We
will discipline them as We would the
vilest rogue. | have nothing but
measureless contempt for the
churchman who will allow his prop
erty to be used for debauchery.
What is the defense of the seq
regation? Some say it is the APP
proved plan. 1t is the universally
disapproved plan. The other plea
is that it protects the home. Does
it protect the home to segregate the
five girls who were ruined, and in
vite the fifty men who ruined them
into your homes? If we are to have
segregation, let us have it. Let US
segregate those men. Let us mark
them. Whip, as vulture from the
face of the earth. the gay libertine,
who parades this city with a smirk
and ruins our girls.
As some poor, deceived, forsak-
en-, isolated Diana shambles off in
TO darkness, perhaps ending her
earthly career by the vial of car
bolic acid, or after one wild shrek,
takes her plunge into some deep
stream, the world may give little
heed and soon forget. But there is
one whose eye sees it all and follows
with unerring precision the man or
ruin of such women. God will not
forget,
what are YOU going to do with
the women? We meet the question
squarely. 1t is big question.
Treat them as human beings. Treat
them kindly. Do you say they would
starve? | say that is a SANDER up
on our city. Let such women come
TO the city commissioners, to the
members of the churches and say
they want a chance Those men will
divide their last crust to keep such
a child from want.
The law can be enforced. 1t can
be done. If YOU say that law
against segregation cannot be en-
forced, | would say that your laws
aginst killing and stealing are not
enforced perfectly. But officers will
dignity and enthrone laws respect
ing their oaths to enforce the law.
every citizen. We need a renais-
sance of civic patVotism. Many
men use the city as a commercial
convenience. When the day is fin
ished they get in their cars and go
10 their homes in the outskirts; they
draw down the shades Of their
homes and let the deathdealing
gangrene eat out the city's life.
What are you going TO do about it,
These same conditions apply in

what are YOU going 10 do about it?

Third the chief offender in this
whole business OF the social evil is
the man-and the man goes scot
free. ! do not propose to brand the
poor deceived thing and let the man

also segregate the men. Talk about
fallen women has gone about far
enough in this country until We
bring up some fair and righteous
talk about the fallen man. When
a woman sins she is isolated and
branded. When man sins We pal
late and coddle and forget.

Segregation a Failure

Second, segregation is a colossal
failure. The man is not an inform
ed man who does not know that the
whole segregation theory has failed.
Vice commissioners are one voice in
pronouncing legalized segregation
social order.
There are more fallen men in
this country, incomparabl than
fallen women. How are We to make
segregation successful when we turn
a dozen men loose and shut up one
poor, bedraggled woman? Suppose
eighty men and twenty women have
smallpox. Shall We turn the men
lose AMI quarantine the women
Shall we quarantine the women
while the men run loose? 1t is a
colossal. Worldwide failure.
