In analysing the figures for Mal In one Idaho town where theie heur county, I found from our rec were three houses of prostitution (Continued on Page 2) ords that the Multnomah hotel' in Ontario had (been named as a source of infection 13 times m 1917 and 194S (by men on whom the diagnosis of early infections of syphilis had been made. The | Farley hotel had been named 10 Optometrist times in that same period. In the army and navy it was found that Eyes Examined there were about six cases of gon- orrehea to every case of syphilis Phone 720 so that these houses must have been responsible for many cases of 718 Arthur St. gonorrhea. In the neighboring state of Idaho, in a study of 17 prostitutes, Caldwell, Idaho who were picked up by police of ficials, it was found that seven of the 17 had either syphilis or gon orrhea at the time of their ex amination and were in need of treatment. Four other girls gave histories of previous venereal di sease infection and treatment and thus, of the girls, only six so far had not had venereal disease. It is estimated that at least 25% of new cases of venereal disease have houses of prostitution as their GAS direct source and that by acting as a focus of infection they are responsible for many more cases indirectly. In order to become better ac quainted with the situation in Mal heur county, I asked a represent ative of the health department to investigate these houses. At the time of he investigation, incidental ly, he was trying to find a girl who had been named as a source of venereal disease infection. Furth er more, this investigation was made only four days before the raid by Sheriff Elfering. At that time, these houses were not in op eration. This illustrates how quick ly-these houses can go under cover, only to begin operation immedi ately when they think the coast is clear. James L. Houser, of the Idaho state department of health, who has had much experience in Idaho with houses of prostitution said, “In our experiences, abatement proceedings against houses of pros titution are the only effective means of permanently closing those houses.” Unfortunately, there are alto gether too many intelligent people who feel that prostitution is a nec essary evil. At the time of our investigation one of the proprietors in Ontario told our investigator, “I have asked many of the local business men on Main street and they have informed me that they were in favor of these houses.” She further stated, “I don't mind contributini? to the city fund.
