He need never be seen. Annas, of Jerusalem, was pastmaster of the art. Politicians were alarmed. But Caiaphas, mouthpiece for Annas, said: “Ye know nothing at all —it is expedient for you that one man die.’’ And they dragged Jesus to Pilate, the Roman official. “I find no crime in Him,’’ said the Roman. Annas, unseen, here struck with the club of practical politics. His heelers roared, “Crucify! Crucify! If thou release this man thou art not a friend of Caesar!’’ Loss of office, vanishing graft loomed horribly before Pilate. Throttling conscience and law, he sent Jesus to the cross. Simply a tool in the hands of Annas, the wretched man, like An nas, thought only that he had overcame another obstacle by practical expediency, the sacrifie of one who had neither friends nor influence. They saw not higher up, above all, God! Father forbid that we be so blind! “What is this history of Fantine?’’ asked Victor Hugo. “It is society buying a slave.’’ “From whom? From misery.’’ “The sale of a soul for a bit of bread.’’ Mouthpieces sneer, “You know nothing at all; it is expedient that some girls fall that many may be pure.’’ “Whited sepulchers” poison the air with their expediency. And without Pilate’s battle with conscience, public officials are saying, “Neither laws nor morals justify the houses; their sacrifice of girls is frightful; but it is expedient we have the houses in our midst.” The pressure of unseen “men higher up” is felt. Sepulcher-born expediency finds utterance. Hear it! “Mothers bid your daughters be pure! “But forget that more than forty four houses, dependent for ex istence upon making girls impure, wait for them with open doors! “Officers touch not our landlords and the men living by buying and selling women! “But arrest yonder little street-walker; slaves may not be seen out of bounds! “We have provided a district, a public market place, where the select may buy and sell. “Efficient policemen patrol it. “These will see that spenders and buyers suffer no harm at the hands of our white slaves.” Surely God, above all, has been forgotten! Will we -shall our city endure the continuance of this unspeaka ble shame? In Christ’s Name, No! Atlanta should and will close the houses in our midst.
