Planning to Keep Girls Off Street—
ATLANTA, Sept. 22.—A curfew law
to keep unchaperoned girls off the
streets of Atlanta after certain hours
at, night Is being urged by the Fed
eratton of Women's Clubs as a measure
of health and moral protection. In
connection with the presence of large
numbers of soldiers at Camp Gordon
near this city.
It la probable that the Federation
will urge a similar measure In Savan
nch and Macon, where training camps
are also located and where the social
problem is equally as difficult of kind
ling. ^
The Federation points that unchap
eroned girls are In' need of protection
against the worst element of soldiers
mm well as against their own igno.-ance
and folly, and that one of the beat
means of securing this protection Is
tp require them to leave the streets af
ter certain hours at night.
