MINISTERS FAVOR
NUISANCE BILL
Delegation Appears Before House
Committee in Support of
Land Measure.

Rev. j. Yates Downman. rector Of All
Saints Episcopal Church; Rev. II. d. C.
Maclachlan, d. D.. pastor of the Seventh
Street Christian Church; s. K. Mckee,
general secretary Of the Central Y. NJ.
G. A. and others appeared yesterday
before the House Committee on Gen
eral Laws in support of the Land
bill. declaring buildings and parts OF
buildings used for immoral purposes to
be nuisanccS. 1t was stated that the
bill was modelled very much after the
Federal regulation recently adopted
by Congress to apply to the District OF
Columbia, and that similar laws have
recently been enacted by nine States.
1t aims to break up segregated dis
tricts in cities, and provides for in
junction proceedings against the owner
of the property. DR.. Maclachlan said
that it was not the purpose of those
urging such legislation to do anything
prccipitate, or to take concerted steps
until n definite organization had been
effected.
Mr.. Willis. OF the committee made the
point that that being the case, the law
should provide for such injunctions
only at the hands of the constituted
authorities OF the city, or else some
representative organization of social
workers He would not let down the
bars 70 an irresponsible enthusiast who
might seek hasty in;unctions before a
to carry the law into effect, and SO DO
more harm than good. At the request
of those advocating the measure, the
matter was referred to a subcommlt-
tee, of which Colonel Leedy, OF Page.
is chairman, to consult further on the
subject, and to hear Dr. Wilbur +.
Crafts, of the National Reform Bureau.
of Washington, who will be here on
Saturday.
"A bill having n somewhat similar
purpose as the Land bill was offered
in tho House yesterday by. Mr.. Stcck. Of
Winch ester. and referred to the Com
mittee on Counties, Cities and Towns.
1t makes it unlawful to maintalnia, bar
room, improper resort or public ga
rage on either side OF any block in
the residential section of any city
OF incorporated town. Garages may
be established in such locality with
the written consent of two-thirds of
the residents and property owners on
both sides OF the block. Violations are
to be prevented by Injunction by any
corporation or circuit court, on appli-
cation OF five residents or property
owners on the block In question.
