MAYOR Y ! TO STAMP
VICE N CHICAGO

T Chicago, July 29.-"Segregation
means protected vice and corruption
of officials" Mayor Carter H.. Harri-
son declared today at his fishing
camp in Michigan. Abandonment OF
the policy of segregation OF tile So
cial evil is to be his policy, in Chi
'cago, he was reported as stating.
The new standpoint marks a radi-
cal change in the mayors views. Il
have reached the conclusion" he was
quoted today as saying, that my
ideas OF vices were wrong. ] have
no hesitation now in subscribing to
the general condemnation of segre-
CATION because its worst phase is the
corruption it exercises over the law
enforcing arm. OF the government.
Commercialized vice is a crime and
the only remedy is repression. The
policeman who takes graft from pro-
tected vice soon will be taking it
from pickpockets and burglars.
Chicago is through with the seq
.gegated vice idea. We can never en-
tirely eliminate prostitution in any
large city, but we can drive it under
cover and we can make it unproiit-
able for those who would capitalize
the weakness of others. Segregation
is farce. The city can not go into
partnership with such a business.
