Description: The unamed author of the above is described in the foreword by Dr. C. Fraenkel as a prominent citizen who wishes to protect his politically active brother. This study of houses of prostitution begins with a set of goals: the rescue of prostitutes from venereal disease and alcholism and their re-education for more meaningful pursuits, the protection of men and other women from venereal disease, the "removal of temptation," the avoidance of pregnancy in prostitutes, the elimination of pimps, and the building of city-supported homes for women who are not prostitutes.
