FOR SPREAD OF VICE
Most Girls Go Wrong Because
Of Home Conditions Speaker
Declares.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 10.-More girls
60 wrong because of nome conditions
than for any other reason, asserted
Miss Margaret e. Luther, superintcn-
dent OF the Florence C%rittenton home,
New York city. in an address before
the International Purity congress here
today.
Miss Luther said that most of the
girls with whom the courts have TO
deal are not more than is years of ago.
Statistics show that the larger
number OF girls who go wrong are not
alone in the world" she said. Nor are
they all wage earners Girls come to us
from all stations of life and in most OF
the cases their minds are polluted in
early childhood"
Stories OF locked doors and barred
windows in connection with white
slavery are largely imaginary, accord
ing to Miss Luther.
THE men who'live on commentaries
vice are the men you see standing on
the street corners" she said. "'The
victims are usually silly girls they win
by wiles. And the girl such a man can
enslave soul, mind and body is worse
than any physical slave.
"a judge recently told me that 80 per
cent of the men he had sentenced for
white slavery were less than % years
old"

Copenhagen. Nov. 10.--The dismissal
OF General Won Moltke. now officially
announced, has produced a significant
and far-reaching effect on Berlin. No
body. OF course. believes that General
Won Moltke "a left his post on nc
count OF Ill health, as the authorities
report. Everybody knows. too, that
there was a rupture between the kaiser
and Won Moltke. Nevertheless. nobody
believes the kaiser would decide, at
such q critical moment, to dismiss the
leader OF the German general staff.
Although the illness OF General Won
Moltke Is not a myth. the true reasons
for his dismissal were ~strifes, court In
trigues and disputes, the desire OF the
crown prince to act entirely on his own
initiative and. finally. the fautocratic
ways OF the kaiser himself.
