by which the fines may be collected
legally.
During the course of the discussion
the cits marshal is reported to have
declared that the women OF the dis

fines. Mason declared that he had
no sympathy with the system OF

were there carrying on an immoral
profession and that the problem must
be met and dealt with with judgment
and understanding.
This matter of collecting protcc-
tion money from the dcnizcns Of the
district, has been discussed by prev
ious councils in open session.
The aggregate sum collected this
way amounted to something like
$4,000 annually as the annual fiscal

published in the C-N at the end OF
every fiscal year period
