X Zimmerman, a third member of the Hauor license committee, when asked hi position on the ordinance, said: "I have not examined the ordinance and do not care to give an opinion at the present time, but I am doubtful. if the ordinance would do any good." "Are you opposed to boxes In aa- loons f was asked. -------- r- "Tes, I am," was hi reply. "I think the boxes ought to be done away- with, but what la the use of passing another ordinance? We passed one regulating the height of the boxes, providing thst there were to be no locks on the doors. but It I not enforced, and th council .. cannot enforce laws. It can only make them. My position t that while oppoe Ing saloon boxes I do -not believe in passing ordinance that will not .be en forced."-' : The ordinance Is speclflo In It pro visions, 'and If passed no loophole could be found -for an evasion of the law. r It define a box as any space, partitioned off from or separated from .another room, hallway., passageway, or apaoe by curtains, boards, or other substance .or material, and connected with or used In connection with any saloon, barroom, drinking shop, restaurant or eating house where alcoholio drinks ar sold or purveyed. Section I, dealing with the persons violating the law. It 1 speclflo lit it pro vision. It says: 'It shall be unlawful for any person. firm or association in person or by an other or otherwise to conduct, carry on or maintain any barroom or drinking ahop or eating place In Portland where any box, booth, stall or private ejooms are situated or connected with by hall, door, window, passageway-or other open ing, unless such box. la entirely open on the side facing on any halL passageway or room." ; The fine for the, violation of this or dinance 1 not out of keeping with the rest of th measure for ihe lowest pen alty 1 10 or 10 days In the county Jail.

J According to th minority reform ele ment In the . council .the- ordinance was lntreduoed not la hope of It passing Im mediately. Such reform progress was con sidered too rapid, for Portland and Its adml&Jstratlon, but it was believed that by attempting to pass a law against one Of the most notorious recruiting agents lor vice in the city, a discussion would be aroused that might aid In the forming Of a "more healthy public opin ion," as on of the backers stated It , ? Those opposing the .' boxes say that these , secret tnclosures are the 1 direct means of the ruination of girls of stand ing tn the city who later, throw off parentis! restraint starting ; ton their downward v course. , Secret meetings -In the 'back rooms of fashionable 'saloons and restaurant a where- drinks are served are beld by the crusaders to be the first step towards lost reputation.
