Before taking the stand Eyton was a defendant on a similar charge. The charges were dropped, however, to per mit him to be called as a state witness. Similar procedure was promised in the case of the other defendants, and the fate of the boxing game in Calfornla probably will rest sololy npon the out come of the Willard ease. The prosecution scored today when Judge Craig refused to permit Defense Attorney Earl Rogers to introduce as evidence a decision handed down two years ago by Superior Judge Willis Craig did, however, permit Sogers to ask witnesses if, In thoir belief, the holding of this decision had been vio lated.

Wo can conceive that some good men and even some wo men may feel that it is a necessary evil, but no good men or good women can hold two opinions iu rejjird to forc ing women into commercialized vice. Evory decent mnn and every right minded woman ought to register a vow that tho ti lipping of girls for purposes of white slavery must cease. If our corrupt governments fail to hunt down the slave-drivers, fail to pursue and punish those who delibera tely, through fraud or force drag un willing gins into a life of vice, then all decont citizens, men and women, should unito in forming a great vigil ance committee to enforce to the ex treme the laws made to prevent the enslaving of young girls of our nation in a loathsome trade. Our laws aught to be powerful enough to prevent and to punish violence done Its wards. It is appalling to think thnt in a city of untold wealth, which has become a center of art and music, that govern ment doartment which aro orin Izod to protect the weak aro so cor rupted that they cater to the vicious and strong. It is the most terrible Indictment of our civilization that adult men have to organized their government and that adult women have tolerated such gov ernment, that girls in their 'teens can be spirited sway under the very eyes of our powerful police force and de tective system; that girls In public place can be secretly attacked, drug ged and overpowered, and all for the purpose of feeding commercialized vice. If the government of men cannot pro tect Innocent girl from violence and If women, having no political power, can not create a government suitable to perform this work, then the time ha come when a great private endeavor should be made to meet the situation. It is the first duty of any civilized community to guard it girlhood and we must guard our at any price. A largo and efficient detective force of the best women of the city should be Immediately organized. This force should be paid for by a private fund until we shame the government of men into action to watch over the girl of our city In all public place where they are In danger. There should be a corps of women lawyers to follow up with energy and Store reputation .... dispatch each white slave case which comes into our courts. This is not a time to be satisfied with mere arguments or sensation. Day by day our feelings are harrowed, by the account of tho disappearance of some young woman; day by day we are horrified as wo read of the incarcera tion in some small tenement of young; girls who have boon tmpped by whita slavers; each day we are stirred by some account of a littlo slip of paper (dropped from barricaded window nn gotting into the hands of a rescuerer. After tho sensation comos no siuglo dotail of tho prosecution and adequate punishment of the men involved in tho violenco dono these young girls, It is an insult to our hearts as well as to our heads to allow thoso eases. to end with the more record that they have happened. There should be a corps of wome-t lawyors paid by a vigilance committe to follow up each case and give the public information as to the disposal in court. Never ha the world given example of a greater wrong than are these wrongs to young girls perpetrated al most under our, eye day by day. Nations have been conquered, men and women have been sold on the slave block, but neveT before has a great and powerful nation sat by with folded hand and seen it girlhood sacrifice? (to commercialized vice, entrapped and and drugged and beaten Into ubmi sion by the basest of men for the sup- j port of a trade loathsome to them. I All the horrors snd terror of serf dom and slavery that the world has ever seen pale In comparison with tbe , horrors r hich the government of men jdo nothing to prevent and little to pun- ;ish.
