PROBERS UNABLE TO ‘SOLVE’ ISffit LONDON June 14. —Lord Mersey , in ! giving his instructions for the summing | up of the evidence in the Titanic probe, j declined to express an opinion on the j conduct of J Bruce Ismay, managing director of the International Mercan tile Marine, saying that different con sideration- might arise regarding his I actions, I "I do no; intend to-comment on Is | may's conduct in leaving the .ship." he I said. "It is top difficult to determine I whether he took the right course. t shall not try." I He said that, as regarded the. conduct of Sir Cosmo and Lady G. C. Gordon, who were alleged to have bribed the seamen manning the lifeboat to row away from the victims struggling In the I water, he thought it undesirable to ex press an opinion upon the conduct of individual passengers. Sir Rufus, who is appearing in his o *- rial capacity as attorney general to rep resent the government, insisted that the case of the steamship Californian, which saw distress rockets of the Titanic but did not go to her aid. be taken up with a view to official action. Lord Mersey in replying said that he had supposed that he had no jurisdiction to advise whether or not the certificate of the captain of the Californian should be revoked.

Men and Religion Bulletin “THE HOUSES IN OUR MIDST” Ere she can walk alone, the girl clasps her doll. As childhood slips away, she lays aside the toy and, with beating heart, innocently craving companions, seeks to be attractive. By her nature, God is calling her to the glory of motherhood. But a girl betrayed is of commercial value in the houses in our midst; and men set traps for her feet. Drawn and impelled by forces she does not understand, lured by lies or driven by want, she falls into the hands of her hunters. Her heart is broken, the instinct for motherhood destroyed; but in our markets there is a fallen woman, the girl, to be sold and resold until death, more merci ful than men, gives sleep. The dead and unfit must be replaced with frightful frequency since five to seven years is the average of life in the houses; while the traffic lasts, an inexorable law of supply and demand applies. In the United States sixty thousand girls and more are required annually to meet the needs of “the white slave trade.” Whence do they come? Whose girls are they? Whose daughters will be in the next quota? The hunters are ever in the field and wil] be while the houses buy and sell. Jesus said: “All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them.” You would not have men give to these beasts in human form the right to enter your home; you would not have these houses wait to receive and sell those whom you love; you can not a.pprove these unspeakable things for the daughters of other men. Yet forty-four houses are in our midst. Toleration of them author izes the procurers to seek their prey. Their stock in trade is the fallen woman; for one to fall a girl must be deceived; a license to the open mar ket is a permit to the hunter to pursue and obtain the victims for sale therein. The Golden Rule requires action. Were you to see these harpies aflame with the hope of gain hovering over your home and children, you would not prate of “necessary evils;” nor would you rest content with praying, “Thy will be done;” you would fight to destroy—to uproot the root of the evil, the houses in our midst. You should not stand idle and silent while the hunters seek and the houses wait for your neighbors’ daughters. The shame of these houses depending for their merchandise upon the seduction of girls cries out to God against us. None would hurt, the pitiful inmates. Help in the name of Jesus Christ is offered those who will leave the life! But in His Name let us put an end to the shameful commerce! La ws of the State of Georgia and Ordinances of the City of Atlanta, forbid the existence of these houses in our midst. The location of each one of them, t.he daily and nightly violation of law and ordinance is known to the police force and the police board, whose members are sworn to enforce the law. The return in gold and good to our City from the wrecked lives of those betrayed must be great to have induced her citizens to approve so long this open disregard of the law of God and of man. It should not con tinue. “It is time for you to awake out of sleep.” Later will be shown the price paid and to be paid by innocent women and children for the existence of the houses in our midst. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Os the Men and Religion Forward Movement. AGED WOMAN FOUND LYING HALF CONSCIOUS ON PORCH Awakened at an early hour today by a noise on his porch.
