EXPLOITING IMMIGRANT
GIRLS

i ii report of the Chicago
department of public
welfare one learns that the ex-
ploitation of foreign girls by
employment agencies in Chica-
go is not uncommon. This part
of the report is the outcome of
an intensive study of certain
employment agencies. Hun
dredS of home were visited and
several hundred girls interview
ed. The Investigators osten-
sibly sought employment, and
sometimes accepted it, in order
to learn the truth.
The immigrant girl is de-
scribed in the report as arriv.
ing in this city full of hope and
ambition, healthy, willing and
anxious for an opportunity to
be self sustaining, to earn her
own living. Coming from the
farms and fields, unable to
speak the English language,
there do not appear to her
many avenues of employment
to choose from. Then, too,
how to find employment is a
question that arises before her.
The only manner she hears of
is the female employment
agent. Naturally she turns to
the one who can speak her own
language. To her she turns,
filled with ideals of our great
city and its people; and we, as
a city, really blind as to facts
and without laws that ade-
quately protect her, allow her
to be exploited and neglected,
her hopes and ambitions
changed to misery and despair,
and the boasted opportunities
offered under our free govern
ment are to her but a hollow
mockery.
In less than a month ninety
two girls have in person,
through relative or friend,
or by mail, laid their cases be-
fore investigators of this de-
partment, not knowing what to
90 to change conditions in or
der to secure empoyment-em-
ployment under right moral or
working conditions, proper
hours of work, enough time to
eat, and actually steady work,
after paying over and over
again for work to an agent
/ These girls are afraid to tell of
the real facts they expert
ence, for each one knows she is
compelled to go back to one
agent or another again for
work. Anywhere from a half
day to two or three weeks is
the average stay in one place.
Then they are laid off or dis
charged, only to be replaced
by another victim who spells to
the agent that much more
money and to the restaurant
that much more oportunity to
abuse another girl.
Il 'The girl applies to the
agent for employment; pays
81 to So; then begins the regu.
: lar route of disposing of the
girl. In most places the girl is
employed by the agent, who
takes a group Of girls from one
part of the city to another
, compelling the girls to pay
their own carfare, and hel
! carfare also. They are driver
about from place to place otter
where no requests for hell
have been made by the bust
ness people at all. After sew
! eral hours each girl, tired ou'
! and discouraged, having los
money for carfare, gives W
and goes home and at least fo.
the day the agent is rid Of her

railroad commission of Wisconsin.
They declare they have had but two
complaints of shortage of cars this
fall. When the railroad commission
was organized the car shortage evil
was one of the greatest problems. The
commission used two or three hours
each day handling these complaints.
Delays on passenger trains are be-
ing rapidly eliminated, says the report
of the commission on the passenger
train delays. One year ago trains
were late on an average of 40 minutes
for July, compared with &c this year.
Just 9.4 per cent of the trains in the

kENosHA JEWELER ROBBED or
RINGS IN DAYTIME.
Man and Woman Get Away With Tray
Containing Forty-eight Stones
Valued at $4,000.

kenosha.-Facts in connection with
the most daring Wisconsin Jewel rob.
berry IN years were made public here
by the police. The store of Thomas J.
Dale was entered by thief who man
aged to get away with diamonds to the
value of $1,000.
Raymond Stark, employed as watch.
maker, was alone in the store at the
time the robbery is supposed to have
taken place. A man entered with q
fashionably dressed woman and asked
to look at cut glass, and Stark took
them to the rear part of the store.
The man finally selected cut glass
vase and made deposit on it, giving
the name of III. Morgan" and an ad.
dress in Kenosha. Five hours after.
ward the theft of an entire tray of
diamonds was discovered. The tray
contained forty-eight diamond rings,
valued at from $25 to $3.50.
Dale believes the robbery had been
carefully planned and that the thief
had spotted the tray of diamonds some
time ago and the plan had been care
fully worked out.
