SENSATIONAL SERMON ON
MARITAL WHITE SLAVERY
' (United Press Leased Win.)
SoatUfl, Dec. ,19. Dr. Mark A. Mat
thews, Seattle's Insurgent preacher and
pastor of the wealthy First Presbyter
Ian church, from his pulpit last night
charged tha hundreds of young mar
ried ' women are compelled to. practice
customs by tbelr husbands that event
ually lead to white slavery. The ser
mon created a profound sensation.
The speaker laid stress on parental
neglect of children, allowing bad com
panionship and lax discipline, and stat
ed that there was ample evidence of
criminal matrimony right here In Se
attle, where" men have married young
girls for the sole purpose of perpetuat
ing the white slave traffic. .
Dr. Matthews also attacked the mov
ing picture theatres, which, he declared,
displayed films of revolting character.
Some of the Seattle S cent resorts, Dr.
Matthews charged, were ' maintained
solely as rendezvous for young men and
women. . . :
