Federal Judge Van Fleet of Cali
fornia and Federal Judge Pollock OF
Kansas have decided diametrically
opposite to each other with reference
to the proper Construction to be
placed upon the Federal Mann White
Slave Act, so called. Judge Van
Fleet holds that it makes no differ
ence for what purpose a man may
take a girl from one state into an
ather, provided it Is for an immoral
purpose. the act being intended to
promote morality and for the pro-
lection of girls. Judge Pollock
holds that it is necessary to prove
on the part OF the United States
that the taking OF the girl from one
State to another was done for a COM
mercial purpose. meaning. evidcnIt.
that the wrong doer expected to re-
,eve and did actually receive som"
Of the wages of sin OF his victim
and that it did not apply to liber-
tines, who paid all expenses of the
trip.

OF the Appeal. the entire act is about
as effective for good as pigmy ;
straw, as weapon with which to
combat evil. Why? 1t would be al
most impossible to prove the com
nlercial purpose. Procureurs could
work in cohoots or harmony-one
