PAGE TWO THE N’YSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, NYSSA, OREGON*. THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1949 HEALTH OFFICER VIEWS SITUATION (Continued from Page If these girls is found to have a venereal disease she is immedi ately shipped two or three sta tions down the line. It is good business for the madam to get her out of the house. But this also makes it much more difficult, il not impassible, for health official, to find this giri and to get her under treatment so that she is no orger a menace. Furthermore t know that every law enforce ment official will agree that hou'e*- •f prostitution act as a magnet to the criminal element. Anyone vho reads the papier very closely. I know, has read where such and uch a criminal, in evading the law, had holed up in some house of arostitution. I believe that District Attorney V»an and Sheriff Elfering de- erve the praise and support of all right thinking citizens of the county. They have done a cor- ageous and wise thing. I con gratulate both of these men and 'eel that if their efforts are suc- e ®ful, one of the major public health problems of this county will have been eliminated. close together on the Main street, a police woman had * to be shifted from her duties to patrol the the aters to protect little boys from the attention of sex perverts. When these houses of prostitut ion were closed it was found that this protection was no longer nec essary and that she could again assume her normal duties as a police woman. One of the other arguments in favor of licensed or tolerated houses of prostitution is that if they are closed the girls will be spread all over the city. This is not true. Prostitution is a busi ness-big business. It depends for it's success on the profits derived from many customers who are at tracted and served by a small number of women. These con ditions cannot exist in the resi dent sections of a large city or in a small country town unless the police and the public approve or shut their eyes. Outside o f a known and well publicized house of prostitution the number of men that a girl can serve is too few lrt | number to make it financially worthwhile. 4-H CLUB MEETS The girls in a tolerated house The Thimble Bells 4-H club met of prostitution are all part of a at the home of Mrs. C M.
