The better form survives in the struggle for existence “between them. Instead of “suppressing” the public dance, Milwaukee Started a respectable but merry one herself. Milwaukee finds that the public dance is ali right in itself; it is private management Mat Makes it an evil, because it seeks profit, and not the good of the _ community. . Now comes Kansas City with a public loan office. The “board of public welfare has opened an office where people who are tn a can borrow money. They figure that nobody will go to a loan and pay 10 per cent a month if he can get money from the city reasonable terms. Prosecution has not been effective In wiping out the loan shark.
