TOI
CHICAGO. .May 0.-Abo!utc an
nihilation of Chicago's notorious red
light dNtrict, which it intimates is
recruited from women who exist on
starvation Avuges, is the central rec
ommondatiou in u preliminary report
by the Chicago city council's uee
committee, which wus appointed Inst
October and which rciwrt wns made
public today.
The report holds plainly that the
employers of undernnid women nre
responsible for their downfall, nnd
recommends n speciiU iuqjiiry into
the subject of low wages and their
relation to prostitution.
Further tho report recommends
the immediate wiping out of tho se
gregated districts nnd ucges that nil
resorts bo subjected to "constnnt rc
presiou with n iew to their anni
hilation." The rcort also favors the
apiMiiutmcut of n city housing-coin-mission,
investigation of the tene
ment problem nud thu education of
parents so thev may properly in
struct their children on the problems
of sex.
Tho rejwrt snys in pnrt:
"The existence of the segregated
district furnishes an ojien market
for the white slavo traffic. Com
mercialized vice has no rights that
ought to be re-pected or conserved.
Segregation doos not segregate, nor
regulation legulate. Abundant evi
dence i-. furnished that the efforts
in Chicago nnd olsewhere to restrict
the buoiuess within n given zone has
always resulted in spreading it to
other dUtiieU."
