Spokane Dive District Noted by Salvation Army General
Brigadier McMillan and wife toured Spokane and Butte districts, finding Spokane’s red light area a proper concern while deeming Butte’s district a dull sight. The trip sparked reflections on urban vice in western cities, alongside local notes on eggs prices, prison incubator talk, quarantine among visitors, a curious transfer box incident, and holiday crowds as Santa Claus arrives.
