THEIR OPPORTUNITY.

No impression should be gained from Yesterday $
meeting and action by The Chamber of Commerce
thar there is no need for a campaign against vice
conditions ~ The churches of the city
Their, is need There is in fact. need for action
By every organization with regard for public wei.
fare and with duty toward public welfare.
What the businessmen Of Honolulu did yesterday
was 10 make manifest their intention to take 4 lead
ership, as business organization. in fighting the
commercial vice already exposed officially by the
territorial grand jury.
The churches and religious duties have a distinct
duly Of their own, field of their own. II is TO
awaken their congregations their members all
those they influence 10 the necessity for united
community action Their path of duty is as straight
and as unmstakabe as that of the press. II would
be inconceiyiblc that in any great moral movement
the organized moral forces of the city should take
no part And il is in recognition of this oppor
tnnty for moral leadership in placing certain facts
before their congregations that pastors and other
church men have called the meeting ut the Library
of Hawaii for next Monday night.
Some citizens may think that since the Iedlight
district Of Iwilei has been closed, the campaign
against vice is over. That, unfortunately, is not
The case. The grand jury's report estimated that
sixty per cent of the commercial vice in the city
operated OUTSIDE OF ItCttet. To tight this spreading
cancer of evil, there must be put before a now
apathetic public facts which are unpleasant facts
but which are also facts that cannot and must not
be blinked.
4 definite campaign to secure the passage by the
next legislature of the sabatement by injunction
act is contemplated This act is the most effective
vet devised in American law TO combat commercial
vice, particularly vice which seeks to spread secret
ly through the city Several states, recognizing its
have passed suitable bills Twice such
bills have been presented before the legislature of
Hawaii and twice the bills have failed. The reason
has been that there sufficient public support
TO secure their passage. But if this community
through the eyes of 10000 fathers and mothers will
look squareTy in the face the ugly facts Of CONNER
cial vice the bill will 90 before the legislature
with force sufficient TO pass it.
That is why campaign of public education is
needed now. The situation is not pretty one but
il is inevitable Honolulu has tried to ignore
commercial vice and failed; silenced conscience with
the plausible theory that it had regulated vice. when
regulation had failed The continuance of this atti-
tude has become impossible.
