Wide Reforms in City Police Continue Policy of Toleration
A Harrisburg police policy of toleration allows commercialized prostitution in certain city areas without interference. The bureau keeps no records of suspected houses and officers file sworn statements denying knowledge of any bawdy or disorderly venues. Quarterly reports often read none, yet observations show open operation of such houses and prostitution across streets, flats, and rooming houses.
