 vating, rather than improving, the situation. At the time these abate- ment actions were started, there were in the neighbOrhOOd of thirty five women in Ketchikan who were alleged to be inmates of houses of i'll fame. These women were all in one segre- gated district of the town and were under constant police surveillance. After the houses occupied by those people were closed under the abate- ment orders, the inmates scattered throughout the town, and many other women of the same profession came to Ketchikan, until the number in- creased to upwards of one hundred, and they were scattered throughout the residence and business sections of Ketchikan. These people then oper- ated under the guise of various busi- nesses, which were blinds for their real occupation, but in such a manner as to make it most difficult, if not impossible, to secure evidence upon which they could be prosecuted or abated in their new quarters. Vener- cal diseases also increased three-fold in Ketchikan after these abatements. We find there is now the closest CO., operation between the federal and municipal officers, and all are work ing actively in the suppression of evils of this kind. That there have been efforts made in the past few weeks to force the women out of the residential and business sections of the city. These efforts have met with some suc- cess and should not be dropped until these sections are cleaned up.
 It is the opinion of the grand jury that the regulations controlling the prosecution of crimes of this nature should, as far as practicable, be left to the local and municipal authorities, but that the federal officers should aid when necessary.
 The statement has also been made by men in political life that consorts of red-light women have become ar rogant and domineering here and parade the streets of Ketchikan in the attitude of privileged leisure class; that their two hundred or more women operate the saloons of the town right under the eyes of the fed- eral officials. These statements are, we believe, solely for political and spiteful purposes.
 In the first place, there are not at this time fifty women in Ketchikan who are even suspected of being "red-lght" women. This grand jury has been unable to find any Saloons" in Ketchikan, but we have found that as soon as any bootlegging joints are discovered and evidence for cOnVic-

KETCHIKAN GRAND JURY
 ON VICE CONDITIONS

IS as IOllOWS:
 United States District Court for the
 District of Alaska, Division Number
 One, at Ketchikan. Special April
 1925 Term.
 REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY To the Honorable Thomas M. Reed,
 Judge of the above entitled Court:
 We, the Grand Jury, duly empan- eled for the special April term of court, 1925, in the above entitled court, held at Ketchikan, Territory of Alaska, Division Number One, com posed of six women and twelve men, beg to submit the following report, to-wit:
 We have been in session days, have had under consideration 10 cases. We have returned ' true bills, and 1 not true bill; have examined 30 wit nesses.
 When this grand jury convened, it was instructed by the court as fol- lows:
 ''It has been publicly stated that CTlS IS d WlChcO, IctWlCSo, and that the law has not been and is not enforced as it should be. While it is your duty primarily to indict all persons who, in your judgment, have violated the law, you may also inquire as to whether those charged with law enforcement have failed in the per formance of their duty to enforce the laws of the United States or the Ter ritory; whether such failure constl- tutes a criminal offense. You have the power, and it is your duty to en- quire into all forms of laWlessness, If any, and the conditions which contri- bute to the same. and present to the court your recommendations for the suppression thereof This is not only for the general benefit of the com munity but it is to your own benefit as upright, law abiding citizens there of. Thus you see, upon you as grand jurors devolves primarily the welfare O. the community, and the enforce ment of the laws providing for order ly government"
 Pursuant to the foregoing instruc- tions of the court, the grand jury has made an investigation regarding al legged crime and vice conditions, as well as the manner in which the of- ficers of the court are discharging their duties. We believe that a great many of the so-called sporting ele ment have flOcked here as the result of the prosperous conditions prevail ing in Ketchikan. We have subpoen- aed before us representative citizens, heads of civic bodies, and municipal and federal officers. It is the opinion of all but two of the witnesses who
