MENACE TO AMERICAN
WOMANHOOD MUST BE
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

our committee confess that they
sacrificed their virtue in order to
live!
Their wages were not sufficient
to keep off starvation.
When such a shameful fact con-
fronts us, there seems one effec-
tive and imperative solution.
Now 1 do not wish to be con-
sidered as one who cOmmends a
woman who will give up her
virtue i'm preference to her life, IL
the crisis arises.
But / am Inundated to know
that because of grinding wages
the crisis is ever allowed to loom
in all its ugliness before any
American girl!
And IL these wages are paid by
millionaire "philanthropists," SO
much more ugly is the blot on our
pride.
From every angle of the evil
dence thus far presented to Sena-
tors Juul, Beall, Tossey, Wood
ard and myself, it appears conclu-
sively that wages have much to
do with white slavery.
A minimum wage law, then,
would seem to be the only natural
remedy.
Finding this to be the case. I
have communicated with the gov
ernor of each and every state of
the Union, suggesting a commits
sion similar to that now at work
in Illinois. From many of these
| have already heard.
l have little doubt that we shall
have prompt and definite action
throughout the country resulting
in legislation establishing a pref
ty uniform minimum wage scale.
1 have also written President
Wilson, asking his support of a
national minimum wage law.
With the overwhelming popu-
lar sentiment existing in favor of
minimum wage law, l feel no
doubt as to the prompt saving
of thousands of girls through the
abolition of starvation wages.
The menace to American wom-
anhood must be removed now and
forever, or America will go the
way of Rome.
1t Is our patriotic duty to stand
by this until the problm is solved!

CHICAGO, March 24.-Major
NJ. l.. @. Funkhauser, newly Great
ed second superintendent of po-
lice, went on the job this morn
ing as regulator of public NOR
ais" and official checker of the
Chicago police department. The
eyes of the city officials all over
the country, who are interested
in the police administration are
upon him.
Funkhauser's position is new
one. 1t Is an experiment attempt
ed by the city council in an eff
fort to get many of the criticisms
directed at police department of
large cities. And even the new
deputy doesn't know exactly what
he is going to do. AS head of the
investiga ton department Funh-
hauser will receive all complaints
that policemen have failed to do
their duty. While the regular
patrolmen are on THEIR beats, thte
second superintendent will have a
force of men conducting investi-
cations under his personal super
vision.
They will investigate reports
of gambling, reports of prevalence
of vice in certain districts and
reports of all kinds of crime.
The Funkhauser squad will
make no arrests. The reports
of their work will be turned over
to Chief McWeeney and will con-
stitute an official check on the
operations of the patrolmen and
plain clothes men 1t will be up
to McWeeney to act.

The question of a minimum
wage has passed beyond the realm
of economies.
1t has become intricately woven
into the problem of our American
womanhood, and as such 1t Is UNI
questionabQy the most vital issue
of today.
Whatever else may happen, no
man will deny that every effort
must be made, and made speedily,
to stamp out once and for all the
shame of white slavery in Amer
lea.
This despicable traffic reaches
into every city and town of !, the
land and down at the roots of the
evil lies the crime of starvation
wages!
If a minimum wage law is a
necessary step on the road to this
second great emancipation in our
union, then a minimum wage law
must be put into effect at the
earliest moment possible.
The mass of testimony present
ed to the committee appointed by
the Illinois senate to investigate
the white slave problem in this
