Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of a Sanitary Failure: Extracts (Mainly From Official Sources) Showing the Results of 90 Years Experiments in the Hygienic Regulation of Prostitution in India
The Army Sanitary Commission says, as to lock hospitals in India: Whatever police measures may be tried in attempting to diminish the present evil, it must not be overlooked that the evil itself is a moral one, and in this aspect is to be remedied only by the gradual moral elevation of the soldiers, and by the growth of self-control among them, aided by more rational diet, abstinence from strong drink, and facilities for occupation.
