th • < ndu.s ol the Houses j n OU] . have knowledge of the world.
. • » " 'out sadness, they say “Closing the Houses will not elimi
nate the social evil.
p° I,H >°* ’l'*' lll ;| i>>n>si weep in referring to the antiquity of the sin.
>u the\ forget that theft was committed in Eden, and .just with
out le lanleii s gates man murdered his brother ere thev had devised
the brothel.
Imaginetion staggers at the thought of the heights that might have
been attained by the thief and the murderer in their peculiar lines had
Ihe\ tn t'ii lavored with a segregated district for their avocation.
I heir sin is older than harlotry, but even the defenders of the
Houses m our Midst would not advocate their protection and license
by our city officials.
\el picking a pocket is better than ruining a girl.
And culling a mans throat is more profitable for the city than
blinding his children and destroying his wife by the poison distilled
through the Houses in our Midst.
I here is better authority than the defenders of the Houses for the
statement that the evil will not go in a day with the closing of the
1 louses.
•Jesus said:
It is impossible but that occasions of stumbling should come; but
yyoe unto him through yvhom they come!
“It were well lor him if a millstone were hanged about his neck
and he yvere thrown into the sea rather than that he should cause one
of these little ones to stumble."
“Occasions of stumbling’' will come.
But no longer will followers of Jesus Christ in Atlanta be without
protest parties to causing these “occasions" through the failure of city
officials to ki ep their oaths of office.
And with His fol lowers in the tight, if tight t here must be to free
ourselves from this intolerable shame, will be hundreds and thousands
of good men who do His yvill though they may not know Him as Lord
and Saviour.
The international order of B’nai B'rith at its recent convention in
Europe instiluted a world wide campaign against the white slave trade.
A splendid Jew. A. Leo Weil, leads the battle for decency nowon in
Pittsburg.
A people Io yvhom we owe our religion, whose God is also our God
and Lather, whose law decreed death to the seducer of the Jewish girl,
will not yvillingly endure a traffic based on the ruin of girls.
\or yvill the descendants of the Teutons, yvhose blood is in our
veins.
Before they knew of Christianity, ere the inroad of the Roman.
• drunk with materialism and debauched yvith the decadent civilization of
Greece, they punished crimes against chastity yvith death.
Not wonderful then is it to hear a German speaking in the Reich
stag. protesting, sav: “A state which officially tolerates and guarantees
these houses assumes the role of a procurer.’
The same must be said of cities.
And this role for our city, this causing of girls to stumble and fall,
can not and will not be tol( rated by men of our religion and blood.
Every dav that these more than forty houses remain open, the con
sent and protection given by citv officials make our city, and every man
and woman in it a party to the betrayal of the girls necessary to furnish
the inmates.
Logic, not idealism, compels this condusfcm.
And German cities, including Berlin with its great population, have
closed such places.
Madrid and London have done likewise.
In Great Britain there is now no form of police regulation of social
vice.
Persistent repression is the method in force.
In these cities, those American ones listed in Bulletin No. 8. and
other cities where a policy of suppression has been adopted, the social
ey il has not been entirely eradicated.
Nor has burglarv. arson and murder.
But they have proved Mr. Weil, of Pittsburg, right in saying that
the social evil is greatlv reduced by removing police protection from il.

ingly Decline.
NKyv YORK, July 30.—Irregularity was I
shown in the cotton market on the open
ing today, with first figures ranging from !
unchanged lo 2 points higher to 1 to 4 ;
points lower than the previous close- i
Liverpool cables were lower than Aspect-I
ed in consequence of bearish houses sell- ,
ing to depress prices. yVithin 10 minutes !
after the opening the market was under '
heavy selling pressure, led by some big
professionals with the ring crowd helping
out. causing prices to break with losses ■
from 9 to 17 points below the previous
close. This was explained on the ground
the market was overbought and that the
crop in Texas had been exaggerated
Later, however, the market rallied 5 to 14
points.
The weather conditions reported favor
able over the larger part of the belt.
The market was still under heavy sell
ing during the afternoon session on re
ports from Texas saying a few light scat
tered showers had prevailed over that
state This report renewed the aggress
iveness of big professionals and the rilig I
crowd who have been unloading some of ‘
their long lines taking profit, causing
prices to show a further decline from the
early decline, prices being 17 to 27 points
below the previous close. This reaction
may be extended temporarily further, but I
it puts the market in a healthier posi
tion. and it is firmly believed a higher
marl et wdll follow.
At the close the market was steady
with prices showing net losses of 25 to
36 points from the final of Monday's quo
tations. I

HAYWARD & CLARK S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
Nl<\\ ORLKANS, July 30. Weatiter
map shows little change. Part cloudy in
the northern third of the belt. Balance
generally fair. No rain except .22 at Pal- :
estlne. Texas: .60 at Jacksonville, Fla . |
and .28 at Memphis. Very high tempera
tures in north Texas, witli minimum of 82
at Abilene anti Fort Worth.
Tile maximum average for Texas y ester
day w-as 104 and for Oklahoma 104. Three
stations in Texas showed 100. ten showed
102, nine 104, three 106. six 108 and four
104 Indications for part cloudy' in the
northwest quarter Possibly some show
ers in Arkansas and northern Oklahoma.
Continued warm and generally fair in the
balnce of the western states. Increasing
cloudiness and thunder showers are indi
cated for today and tomorrow over the
eastern half of the belt. After a dry spell i
of ten day s such conditions would be most i
favorable for crop development in the
central and eastern slates.
Liverpool is halting around 7.00. Spot ,
prices unchanged. Our market opened i
about 4 points lower and sold off lo 13.10 I
for October in the early trading, owing I
to further easiness in New York. Buying
was checked by news that leading longs
had sold heavily yesterday in the last '
hour. The market in Hie second hour
eased further, October selling to 1.2.99 on
reports of sprinkling at Fort Worth and
Dallas. Light showers will hardly do any
good. What Is needed is a general ample
rainfall The market recovered promptly
tn 13.10 for .October, but is upset by the]
rapid fluctuations and he rain rumors
which will take sop,e to settle.

somew'hat firmer tone and advances oc
curred from tile opening figures. Ameri
can Sugar scored the highest of these
with a gain of 1 point Initial recessions
of from % to % in Reading. Steel com
mon. Northern Pacific, Great Northern
' preferred. American Beet Sugar and other
i issues were succeeded by almost uniform
gains, which brought prices to or slight-
, j ly above the levels of yesterday’s close.
American shares in the London market
| were strong, but slow. Covering was in
evidence there in Canadian F’aeific
Tlie curb market opened stead) .
The tone in the late forenoon was dull
but firm. Fractional gains were made in
nearly all the important issues. Expecta

crops induced good buying.
A firm tone appeared in the last half
hour ami substantial gains were made in
many of the important stocks. Canadian

1% points. I’nion Pacific. Reading, Atch
