Vice Commission
Acts on Report Today
The vice commission will meet this
afternoon at 5 o'clock to take final ac
tion on its report to the city council
on the social evil. A lengthy report
has been prepared by Chairman Jo
seph A. McCord and the editorial com
mlttee which will be submitted
W. () Humphrey, chairman of the
police committee of council, and Coun
cilman George H. Boynton, both mem
bers of the commission, said today that
they considered it superfluous for the
commission to submit a report after
Police Chief Beavers' order A number
of dissenting views are expected to de
velop. The session will be executive.
It is admitted by al) that Chief Beavers'
act was a decided surprise to the com
mission
Mr. Humphrey said he thought the
commission ought to submit a report
notifying the mayor and the council
that since the appointment of the com
mission Chief Beavers bad wiped out

The commission was appointed three
months ago by Mayor Winn at the re

The report, as it now stands, ignores
the restricted district. It deals partic
ularly with alleged hotels and rooming

streets. The plan as expressed by

JACKSON URGES MINISTERS
TO READ HEARST’S MAGAZINE
.Marion -lai-ksou. leader in the Men and Religion Forward
Movement. todav urged the ministers of Atlanta to read
Hearst s Magazine. October uifinber. for hints on how to deal
with the problems created by Chief Beavers’ war on the ten
derloin of Atlanta.
He advised every minister and worker who was going to aid
in lhe effort Io redeem the women to read Wipgton Church
ill's story m that magazine. ‘’The Inside of the Cup."
That story, he said, showed why there were so many fail
ures in the efforts to reach the women. As a usual thing
the mimsters do not make the natural, personal appeal that is
necessary, he said. «
Mr Jackson had a number of copies of Hearst's Mag
azine for October which he distributed at the meeting of mem

Sleuths Say Busby
Woman Was Slain
Detectives today are scourins the eitj
for a strange man. clean shaven,
dressed in a light suit of clothes, and
wearing a black derby, whom they be
lieve may hold the key to the mystery
of the death of Nellie Busby, the wom
an found dead yesterday with a dagger
in her heart in her room in one of the
illegal houses of the tenderloin.
Despite the note found in the room,
indicating that the woman had com
mitted suicide and giving the action of
Chief Beavers in closing the tenderloin
as the cause, detectives today are
stronger of the opinion than ever that
the woman was murdered They open
ly assert that the letter was a "plant"
by an assassin to throw the police off
the track
"The man in the case" was seen by
Policemen Lewi- Whitley and Corley to
enter the house shortly befme the time
the woman is supposed to have slain
herself This, with other strong cir
cumstances. convinces the detectives
that the woman was murdered and
that the murderer simply took advan
tage of the present situation to get rid
of her. leaving the impression that she
was despondent bet a use he house had
been closed.
Talking to Policemen Whitley and
Conley at 10:30 o’clock Tuesday night,
the woman said an attempt had been
made to chloroform and murder her
Sunday night. The fumes, however,
were -o strong that she awoke before
falling under the influence of the drug
She told the officers she was afraid
some furlhe: harm might befall her,
ami begged them to let her have a po
lk tin.i n's whistle, in order to summon
help in an emergency.
While the officers talked with the
woman at the front gate, the strange
man in the light suit entered the house.
Ai this moment, the officers were called
away, and remarked to the woman that
they would se. her a little later about
tii whistli That was the la.sjt seen of
lie: alive.
When tin woman was discovered
dead an untouched lunch, which she
had ordered in Hie night, was on a ta
ble near by. Near the lunch was u bot
tle of beer The woman evidently had
prepared to eat lunch, and had poured
out a glass of beet It sat by the bottle,
however, untouched The theory of the
officers is that the woman, had she
I rally contemplated suicide, would not
have ordeted lunch, poured out a glass
of beer, and then -uddenly plunged a
dagger in her heart without even sip
ping the beei or touching tlie lunch.
While talking with the two police
men the woman appeared in good spir
its. and didn't say a word against Chief
Beavers or his action. She seemed per
fectly satisfied, and told the officers she
was planning to open a rooming house
Detectives also say they a'e satisfied
no woman, however depraved, who was
Just about to plunge into eternity,
would have written this paragraph,
which appeared in the farewell note:

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEWS.
Churches Asked
To Return Thanks
The executive committer of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement to
da> issued this statement to "min
isters and pastors of Atlanta: "
Chief Beavers, with a manhood
and courage rarely equaled, has
upon his own responsibility com
plied with the request made by you.
He bps taken a step which few
men would dare to take alone, in
obedience to his conscience and
w ithout regard for consequences to
himself.
To him the churches of Atlanta
are indebted for an opportunity the
like of which has not been seen be
fore in the history of our city to
prove again to the world that Jqsua
spoke truth when He said the very
"gates of hades shall not prevail
against His church."
Expect Attacks on Beavers.
Servants of Satan, some even
masquerading in the garb of mem
ber-hip of Christian Churches, will
fight relentlessly this chief of po
lice who by his fearless act has
taught anew the sacredness of an
oath and the law.
It i« gratifying that at this hour
such an official has behind him our
recorder, Nash R. Broyles, who is
absolutely without fear and ever a
foe to vice and lawlessness in any
form.
The worst of these attacks will
be made under cover, when least •
expected, and t by men who have
not yet learned the meaning of
public office and the obligation of
an oath.
Without further consultation w ith
you, who ,ed this committee,
we have pledged io Chief Beavers
the unqualified and unending sup
port of each of the 07 ministers who
signed the request for law enforce
ment against the social evil in At
lanta. In addition to this, we con
fidently believe and expect that he
will have the approval and active
co-operation of every force for
good in the city, whether or not
connected with Christian churches.
■ Would Go Into Courts.
You need not be apprehensive as
to the moving of the hoJisep to the
country districts or surrounding
counties.
We were confident that there was
a mistake about the remarks at
tributed to Sheriff Mangum and
County Chief of Police Rowan.
Had they taken such ;r position,
it would not alter the situation.
I'rider such circumstances, your
committee would, immediately and
without hesitation, use the injunc
tion of the superior court against
the houses and criminal warrants
for the arrest of the owners of the
houses and their inmates.
The law is simple and effective.
Had Faith in Officials.
When there is a man willing tn
get behind the law. the recognized
house of prostitution can pot ex
ist 24 hours in any city or county
of this state.
We did not use these methods in
the city because we were unwilling
excepting as a last resort to ad
vertise to the world that private
citizens of Atlanta had to do that
which our public officials are paid
to do. Ouj- belief in the integrity
of the city's officials made us feel
that it was unnecessary.
It is impossible that officials, un
der oath and responsible for law
ami order in Fulton and surround
ing counties, should ever connive
nt the efforts of criminals to thwart
the chief of Atlanta's police in the
enforcement of law.
But should the impossible hap
pen, the courts will take care of
the criminals and the respectable
people will attend to the officials at
the polls
No word from us to you with ref
erence to the women of the houses
is necessary.
Ask Thanks Be Returned.
It hen you entered upon this
work you had already determined
io go more than half way to save
them ano to take effective meas
ures to prevent others falling into
tiiese unspeakable traps.
\\ e ask that you make Bunday a
da) to be remembered in your
churches b) returning thanks to
God for the action of Chief Beav
ers and the victory which through
him God lias given to you.
Pray tor guidance of His people
in this time us test for the churches
which bear the name of Christ.
Let it be known to the world that
this is the work not of a few en
thusiasts. hut of tlie Christian
minis'! i> and people of Atlanta.
Respectfully,
JOHN j. EAGAN. <'hairman.

TH SPEND ESTATE
TO PUNISH GAMP
Son of Slain Policeman Takes
Out Letters of Administra
tion for Father's Property.
Edward S. Belding, of Augusta, son
of S. A. Belding, the police officer slain
by J. W. Camp, moto'cycle policeman,
a week ago appeared in Fulton county
court of ordinary today and took out
temporary letters of administration for
his father's estate. Belding was ac
companied by B. B. McCowan, an Au
gusta attorney.
"We expect to use part of the estate
to assist in the Prosecution of Camp.
We will spend mopey to get him." he
said.
McCowan asserted that he expected
to go over the case with Solicitor Hugh
Dorsey today. He will come to Atlanta
during the trial to assi't Dorsey in the
prosecution.
Presentments against Camp will be
made to the grand jury at the next
meeting. The jury is scheduled to meet
on Tuesday, but because the criminal
division of superior court is in session
it may be postponed.
Chief Beavers To Be
Sermon Theme
Di. John E. White, pastor of the Sec
ond Baptist church and a leader in the
Men and Religion Forward Movement,
this afternoon gave out a statement
praising the action of Chief Beavers
and declaring that the fight to down
vice ip Atlania has just begun. Dr.
White also announces that he will
preach next Sunday night on "Chief
Beavers and the Present Situation.”
Dr. Whitp says:
"First, I want to congratulate The
Georgian on its splendid editorial of a
few days ago, an editorial which is
bound to exert a wide influence for
good throughout the sptire state and
receive the commendation of ail clear
thinking and good people.
"I also want to stress the fact that
the Christian people and all of the bet
ter element of Atlanta are squarely be
hind Chief Beavers it/ this fight—not
loosely, but solidly. The chief's action
is the result of first-hand knowledge of
facts, of constant contact with the or
ganized elements in support of vice in
Atlanta, of intelligence concerning
what has been done in other cities, and,
above ail. of his own conscience, which
kept his solemn oath to enforce the
law before his honest mind.
"The attitude of the Men and Re
ligion Forward Movement, from the
beginning, has been based on intelli
gence and not on sensationalism and
fanaticism. There was the law—here
was the crime and criminals. There
was never a moment's doubt of the out
come of the campaign. And it is not
over yet.
“We have just begun tlie fight. Re
ports from many towns in Georgia in
dicate that the Atlanta spirit to sup
press defiant vice is going to be con
tagious in the smaller towns and cities
of this state. Really, the movement is a
part of a great nation-wide agitation
wpich can not be stopped, because facts
keep it alive."
Debts on Resort
Furniture Illegal
By peculiar coincidence, an echo of
the Collins street raids of two years
ago. in which that restricted district
was wiped out by court order, was
heard in first division of superior court
toda) T'ne verdict of the court will
check Atlanta furniture dealers who
have had dealings with the proprietors
of restricted district resorts and who
might be contemplating sujts for debts.
In deciding the suit of the Abbot
Furniture Company. 241 Marietta
street, against Dgisy Mobley, formerly
of 9 Collins street, the court held that
the furniture man had a knowledge of
the illegal character of the resort, and
therefore could not replevin furniture
upon which money still was due.
The answer filed to the furniture
company suit by the Mobley women, in
which the furniture company was held
to be aiding and abetting the viola
tion of tlie law by selling furniture to
be used in an immoral resort, was sus
tained.'
Court Defines the Law.
The court practically refused to take
the bail and trove;- suit filed b) the Ab
bot people into consideration, for this
reason.
After Collins street was raided the
Mobley woman moved to Jacksonville,
owing the Abbo. Furniture Company
1272. She admitted, the claim and suit
to replevin the goods was filed. The
furniture passed ou, of the woman's
hgnds before Jhe Abbot people could
get track of it. and she refused to pay.
The court inti nated plainly th it any
bail and trover suit brought under .sim
ilar conditions would meet with the:
same fate. The courts, it was held. can
not recognize suits filed to obtain judg
in'nt« on debts incurred as a violation
of the law.

Reasons Why Women Should Support Governor
SHE BOOSTS FOR WILSON
//
Mrs. J. Borden Harriman, of New York, a wealthy
woman. w.ho is aiding the cause of Wilson and Marshall,
tells why women should help the Democratic nominees.
Taft and Roosevelt Would Be
Powerless Without Loyal
Congress.
By MRS. J. BORDEN HARRI
MAN.
NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—This is an ex
traordinary moment in public affairs in
this country and not the least extraordi
nary feature is that the active Support
and influence of women have been
opgnly sought by the great political par
ties This in itself is an unconscious tes
timonial of the greatest significance to
the growing power of women in political
affairs. This recognition creates a unique
opportunity which the women must not
fail to conserve.
In this new era—dawning largely be
cause women have demanded that as the
old fields of labpr closed behind them
they should be permitted entrance into
the new—let the women of this land not
forget that there are measures for which
they all should stand, irrespective of par
ties.
The purpose of the Woman's National
Wilson and Marshall organization is to
make posisble a partnership, irrespective
of former political affiliations, of all wom
en in the United States who have a com
mon interest in the election of Woodrow
Wilson.
Why should women vote for Woodrow
Wilson ?
Reasons for Supporting Wilson.
First, Because though a leader of prog
ress, he is again setting up the old stand
ard of principles for all men to fol
low. instead of tolerating the degenera
tion that has come into our political life
resulting from the control of many by the
few.
Second. Because he is a true pragmatist,
the philosopher and poet who. always
reaching out with one hand to attain an
ideal, keeps the other where it may never
allow him to lose touch with the sordid
ness and sadness of the lives of the bur
den bearers, and .so, on this middle course,
is the link between the two.
Third. Because he has demonstrated in
two years in New Jersey what an ex
ecutive who has the welfare of the work
ing classes next his lieart can do for them
through legislation. For instance, in his
administration has been passed the first
law relating to women wage earners ever
enacted in New Jersey, it limits their
employment to sixty hours a week. Also
an act providing sanitary conditions in
bakeries, candy and ice cream manufac
tories, and all factories where goods of
any kind are manufactured: a provision
protecting workers against draughts,
fumes, gases and steel filings, and one
compelling a half hour for meals for all
factory employees; and an employers’ lia
bility act has been passed for the ben
efit of women and children during the dis
ability or after the death of the bread
winner.
Laws for Children.
Ever so many laws for the protection
of children have gone through. Their
employment during school hours and at
night is prohibited, and there can be no
night messenger boys under 21.
Special-classes under the board of edu
cation have been established for children
who are blind or below normal No per
son controlling a place of public amuse
ment may allow the presence of a child
under eighteen unaccompanied by parents
or guardian. An act to regulate moving
picture shows has been passed, and laws
for the improvement of free public
schools. A committee on playgrounds
has been provided for all cities and vil
lages with power to establish recreation,
places. And any adult who is found en
couraging juvenile lelinquency ma)' be se
verely punished and a juvenile detention
court and special count)' judge for juve
niles has been appointed.
Fourth, because women, as the pur
chasers of nearly everything that comes |
into the home, they feci more keenly than I
almost anyone else the effect of the in- '
creasing cost of living One of the causes I
of this increased cost is the tariff The I
Democratic part) is pledged to reduceJ
the tariff and Woodrow Wilson, as its '
leader, will certainly acomplish this.
Fights Without Personalities.
Fifth, because he is going to prove that
it is not necessary that n campaign, to lie
successful, must be fought out in a slough ;
of personalities and recriminations, but !
may be won on the uplands b> a leader, I
standing lor a cause and truly believing
that cause to be far bigger than any one
man
And in the year 1912, they can ,f they
believe in what the Democratic nominee
stands for clean government -do much
by helping to create public sentiment
After all. what is public sentiment but
the erystalhzation of individual opinions,
which like a snowball grows in magni
tude as it is rolled on its way, by each
enthusiastic touch
Measures writing incoiisistencles in our
presen: industrial situation, viz little
children stunted "i bent under labor,
children started often on criminal careers
lliruugii mi--directed pla; instincts owing
to these instincts, having no legitimate
outlet.
Unconsciously long hours for working
women. Human beings herded together
like animals in many great cities, with a
deplorable lack of breathing space; inade
quate facilities for caring for the tuber
culous poor.
Furthermore, women should add their
influence to those who are struggling to
bring politics into the open, to make it
tlie business of all the people, for how
else can the common interests be pro
moted?
How best may these things be brought
about or at least brought nearer at this
juncture?
Taft and T. R. Helpless.
Not by supporting Mr. Taft, because
even if he were elected, there is no pos
sibility of the election of a Republican
house of representatives, so that he would
therefore be helpless to fulfill any prom
ises that he might make.
Not by the election of Colonel Roosevelt,
because it is clear that by no miracle
could he have a "Bull Moose" senate and
house of representatives behind him. It
is obvious, therefore, that he too would be
unable to carry out the pledges of his
platform.
The clear logic of the situation then, is
that Gov Wilson is the only candidate
who n winning will have a friendly sen
ate and house of representatives and so
be able to fulfill his promises and carry
out the policies to which he is committed.
This man has said: “The whole busi
ness of conservation lies right around you
and it is just as much your business to
conserve the water resources and all these
things that should be as common and as
useful as the air. When you have tu
berculosis, contagion of any kind, when
you sweep through the streets and facto
ries. you are interested in the deepest
conservation of all conservations that
start with the health of men.”
Let the influence of the women be used
to try to keep all bitterness and backbit
ing out of political campaigns, remember
ing that differences of opinion are only
superficial after all. It is the fundamen
tal desire for right and justice that
counts.
