That Walla Walla Is one of the . i ... cities of the Northwest Included in the operations of a gigantic ring t oriental "slave traders" is the belief of municipal, county and federal of ficers here, ' says the Walla Walla Union. Dealing with this alleged no torious octopuB extending to all the principal cities ipf the Northwest, with tentacles reaching across th 3 Pacific into China and Japan, from where the supply of human slaves fere procured and brought to the coast, to promote the horrible traffic While this illegal traffic In oren- tal slaves has existed for years, lo cal officers say It was believed io have been almost checked until re cent discoveries have shown tho a! armingly secret manner In whlcli the traffic, has increased. Development have come to light within the pasr two months which cause Immigra tion officials in the northwester! ci ties to Include that another "rin-s ' of these "slave traders" headed bj a cunning master of crime has sprung Into existence and that the result has been a climax' of ruined lives and the desolation of thous ands of young women. In the arrest of Horstl Zurza snd Rondo Mushuro, two Japanese taken Into custody a few weeks ago at the Inslgation of Local Immigration Inspector Wells and their subse quent conviction of living from the earnings of.

He then receives a "letter of credit' which signifies that the child is to come to this country to marry, after which Bhe Is taken In charge by the "agent" and sent here on the trans-Pacific liners where other "agents" take her in charge. v' One oriental law which makes crimes such as have been perpe trated nnon these women ' possible, is the "proxy marriage ceremony. This form of marriage means that with her future husband In this conn try and the woman In Japan the cou-' pie are married and are firmly linked together by law as those who here make their marriage tows be fore the altar or an ecclesistical de nomination.
