DRIVE AGAINST VICE
Tanvpa, Fla;. June 12. Five hun
dred Tampa women have formed the
woman's Protective "League and say
they propose to clean up organized
vice by direct action that they pro
pose to undermine its support.
By the establishment ot a sort of
moral credit ibureau this organiza
tion proposes to furnish any woman
a confldentlal reort on the "double
lire" of iher husband If she wants
it. The Inquirer does not even need
give her own name in making the
inquiry; she may designate a post-
office box address or anv nlaca
where tin agent of the league may
deposit the report on Ms investiga
tion.
Organisers of the (bureau sav that
70 of their number have uledged to
do the investigating work in the
open wihlle the remainder will work
in secret.
"&6 many have eueh old renro-
bates for husbands." eaid one of the
chiefs, "they can't work openly be
cause these husbands won't let
them. Thererore they will work
secretly." The theory of the
league Is that if a man has not
been walking the straight and nar
row path one Of the 500 will know
about it or at least can find out.

KEEP UP A BOLD FRONT
Budapest, (May 20, (A. P. corres
pondence.) This "red" city still
flaunts its color scheme aranged for
the May Day celebration. The com
munists have hoisted the red 'banner
on the castle which is the headquar
ters ot Bela Kun, the big chief of the.
soviet. Red bunting also wares
from the Hotel Hungarla, where the
food is hoarded and where the min
isters have sequestered themselves
wit,h a bodyguard of red soldiers. It
Is there where it is affirmed they
keep their most prized hostages . in
durance vile.
iA, brave show is etlll made ot keep
ing up the government, with much
dashing to and fro of ministerial au
tomobiles. There have been more
arrests since the counter revolution
ists succeeded in blowing up a big
munition factory.
The cost of "painting the city red"
tor the May Day celebration was at
rirst estimated at 12 million crowns
but today the supplementary infor
mation is forthcoming that the red '
bunting used In such (profusion was
only paper "war cloth" which proved
a failure for other purposes. So ft
was dyed red and hung up as it eame
cheaper than paint. '
