INVESTIGATION Of ABATEMENT Law NIOWA AND
NEBRASKA SHOWS that IT WOULD WORK IN HONOLULU

in the Law, the practical result OF its
enforcement has been that the owners
have IN almost every case abated the
nuisances and cleared ont the ohjec-
tiOnabIe tenants Immediately upon,
and in some cases even before the
filing OF the application for injunc-
ton. This fact together with the fur
Their fact that IN only one case out of
the 81 IN which applications for in

Moines, Omaha, and Liz coin has there
been even an attempt by the prOsti-
tute TO continue her business at the
same address or anywhere within the
judicial district. has O5viated the ne
cessity Of enfoI cling the penalties pro-
vided in the law against owners. The
proof of ignorance OF, the conditions
by owners and the prompt abatement
Of the nUisGncrs lave secured in every
case a freedom from such penalties at
the hands Of the judges
c. Increase OF Cr,n.es against

This objection Is that with the abo-
lition of the segregated district the

Gus women, .seduced the weak, and
otherwise satisfied upon respectable
women his animal passions which for
merly found outlet within segregated
districts upon professional prostitutes
II is perhaps sufficient to state, in
answer TO this objection. that there is
not a shred Of evidence in support
of the policy of the abolition of the Sc
of the olicy Of the abolition of the Sc
gregated district who were inter-
viewed (some Of them chiefs of po-
lice) took any stock in this argument
Either this objection or the objection
contained in a." namely, that pros
titution has not been lessened and
has been scattered throughout the va
rious cities by the abolition of segre-
gated districts must fall to the ground
as they are obviously inconsistent
2. Upon Arguments for the Law.
A. Segregated districts impossible
since passage OF injunction law.
The injunction law has proved i'm
mensely valuable as a legal instru-
ment for wiping out segregated dis
tricts, as shown 6y the experience OF
Omaha which, we are informed by
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-03-24

The use Of this Law has in every in
stance resulted in the immediate and
permanent clearing out OF prostitutes
from the addresses complained OF.
This was extremely difficult TO accom-
Tlish under the criminal laws because
OF the delays, evasfons, changed per
sonnet. and other time-killing devices
possible under the criminal laws. and
impossible under the injunction law.
II has not infreQuently HAPPENED I'M
de- the administration of the criminal
laws that numerous raids, arrests. and
convictions lasting over a period OF
several years aave been necessary
before the business became too un-
profitable To rpn. Furthermore. the
Injunction law Places the prostitute
permanently GnGer the control OF the
court, whose order prohibits her for
ever from practising her profession
anywhere within the judicial district.
There is no fine or Imprisonment pro
Vided for the first ofiense but the
penalty for infraction of the restrain.
ing order is so severe and the method
of proof so quick and easy tbeing
W IluOhl q lul ohd lhO JhoeSC Vi
court who issued the ORDER that only
one prostitute has been found with
the temerity even TO attempt TO renew
the practise of her profession within
the judicial district The state has
thereby been relieved from the dis
grace of sharing in the proceeds OF
prostitution through the ancient Sys-
tenn OF petty fines common under the
criminal laws, which only stimulated
renewed activity on the part of the
prostitute to pay them.
c. Property owners now help rath-
er than hinder the elimination Of pros
titution.
The injunction law by its public dec
laration of the responsibility of prop
erty owners for prostitution on their
premises and its provision for their
severe punishment for failu-a to &C.
ceDt that responsibility has created n
new conscience in this class vt "Ili-
zens ant has changed larg1 number
of than from obstructionists GE Ian
enio""1 htnt into active allies for the
law-enforcing officials. Judges, coun-
ty attorneys, and police commission
ers testified that property owners are
taking a new and lively interest in the
characters of their tenants. Our
woman field investigator was unable
to find real estate agents who were
willing to rent to her for the ayowed
purpose of conducting a high-class
house of prostitution. In many cases
she was referred to the owner with
the explanation that owners were now
interviewing prospective tenants and

the district attorney. was duplicated
by Portland. Oregon. The mere ex-
istence Of this law UPON the statute
books. moreover, has influenced un-
willing or indifferent public officials
TO close such districts either by use
OF this law or by executive action.
The best example of this contention
among the cities in Iowa and Ne
braska is Omaha. In Omaha, the dis
trict va; closed immediately after the
passage OF the injunction law, by the
police and county attorney acting to-
6ether-a combination OF executive
and legal action. representative OF
this association found by investiga-
tiCn on the ground that the cities of
Washington, ID. c.. and Duluth. Mimi.
have also successfully taken such eX
ecTtive action after the passage OF
this law. Ii is eviden. that the Off
Gals either welcomed this law as a
new weapon or were convinced that
their further refusal or neglect to take
action to enforce the existing laws
against such places would be met by
action, under the i2jurction law, by
some citizen or association. The fear
Of The public disgrace involved in the
necessity for such private action has
undoubtedly Influenced enforcing
officials, and can confidently be ex-
pected to influence such officials in
the cities Of ntner states which are
cen Sidering the passage OF such law
The fact that few private citizens have
been forced to use this law is evidence
of the prompt response Of officials
generally to an aroused public opinion
and to the satisfaction CT citizens with
the efforts Of Their officials.
Aside rom the influence on officials
of the threat Of an expose by private
action, the Injunction law renders the
renting of houses by private owners
for such purposes within a segregated
district extremely hGZal dous. 4 prop
erty owner Garnet plead ignorance Of
the existence, On his property, Of
prostitution. which is advertised, open
and notorious. In self protection, the
owner would have to insist on the
elimination of ali those advertising
features which make it possible to pay
for protection monthly fines such as
are usually levied by the police or
courts, as we'll as the vast amount of
petty graft. In this way the districts
would be broken up even without Of
fetal action.
AS a matter of fact, no city was
found in the two states visited in
which there existed a segregated dis
trict where prostitution was open and
notorious.

This objection is that the law opens

the objection is absolutely without
