Federal Offenders Say
They're Too Busy TO
Prosecute Them
LEAVE CASES
TO THE POLICE
Result Is That Offend
ers Face Only Minor
Charges

The participation OF the United
States in the war has brought about
a condition serious 10 the moral vel
fare of Detroit. II Is that the fed
eral authorities have no time TO
handle white slave cases
AS result OF the laxity In prose
cutions Of offe nders OF this type an
expert connected with a big trans
portation line is authority for the
statement that white slavers with
ihelr slaves are arriving in Detroit
every day. He says that il they
are caught they are tried in police
court and given a nominal fine or
sentence on the charge OF pandering,
While the more serious charge under
he white slave law is overlooked
because OF the work connected with
investigating
The city police expect the govern
ment TO find evidence TO try Ilen for
violation of the white slave law,
put the machinery OF the govern
ment Is so busy with Stacker and
conspiracy charges that il has no
time 10 investigate the more ordi-
nary criminal cases AS a result the
burden Of proof Is passed TO the pc
lice who prosecute on the purely
local charge OF panderiIg.
Two policemen were in-the ONCE
OF Herbert Cole special investigat-
or for the government, Monday
morning, 10 report case OF man
under arrest They said the man
was locked Up and the girl slave was
in the detention home and that
clear white slave case could be
made against him.
They were told that the govern
ment machinery. short-handed as IL
is, was busy with political offcns<
and conspiracy cases that il could
not bother with the white slave traf-
&c az this time
Let the prosecutor handle these
cases, the policemen were told. I'VE
haven't time TO do IT, II the local
authorities do their duty they can
keep the city clean. but we certainly
haven't the stafr 10 get evidence in
white slave cases at present"
An agent for transportation CON
pany approached another govern
ment agent the other day and said
he could round up a lot OF white
slavers for him.
Don't do it," he was advised
"i on will Only be making more work
for US and We have more than we
can handle now"
We'll. | can bring you in a lot Of
slackors." said the agent.
Don't do that either" was the
reply we can't take care OF them
We haven't the facilities for hand
ling them and IL you bring in these
offenders you are only clogging up
the wheels here"
