NYS SA 77; e xxxxiii . 29 Officers Extend Pheasant Limit, ^hootinff Season V o l u m e NYSSA, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 29, 1948 ino Prostitution In Cities Attacked Nine Days Hunting And Total Of Six Cocks To Be Allowed JOURNAL 8000 Persons Attend Nyssa Night Rodeo At Two Unusually Thrilling Performances Health officers of Idaho ana Oregon and Malheur county, meet ing with Dr. L. A. Maulding in Nyssa last week, called upon the city administrations of Nyssa, On- tartio and Weiser to clue alltgec piaces of prostitution. Dr. Mauiding, health officer of Maiheur county, said "Health 01 - 1 liters of both stales will endeavor to enlist the aid and co-operation of the city councils in Communities where veneral disease is prevalent because of the operation of the houses. ’•undoubtedly we will experience the 1 reatest enforcement difficulty at the city council level." The health officer said the health departments will attempt to educate the public and bring pressure tc force abatement proceedings, rather than try to enforce the laws. Dr. Maulding added that "It is up to rhe cities to enforce the laws | prohibiting prostitution. Without the co-operation of city adminis trations and the police there is little that can be done by the health departments. "Statistics prove beyond any doubt that there are fewer sex crimes in cities which prohibit pros titution than those where it flour ishes. It brings an element to town which is very undesirable.” Dr. Harold M. Erickson, Oregon state health officer, was among those in attendance at the meet ing. dtiy Manager E. K. Burton stated Wednesday that Nyssa police offic ers have investigated suspected places of prostitution, but so far as they know at the present time there are no such women operating here. G.
