q conspicuous part of the building.
THE registration of all owners of
property used for saloon and hotel
purposes, and of all who own licenses
and transfers, this registration to be
a matter of public record.
THE enactment of law similar to
the Iowa Abatement Law which law
makes 1t possible for any individual
to bring proceedings against property
owners whose property is being used
for unlawful purposes.
THE strict and persistent enforce
ment of the law, especially in regard
to back rooms and the harboring of
prostitutes.
THE enactment of O. law which
would inflict the loss of license upon
any saloon or hotel for using pros
titutes in promoting the sale of
liquor for any immoral purpose.

abate the evil. They are urged to do
