McGregor, perform immediate artificial respiration atop the pole, then lower the worker for hospital care.

Jail Terms Hoped to Curb Canton's Disorderly Solicitation
Canton's vice squad raids fail to halt open solicitation in about 20 disorderly houses in the southeast district. Despite 24 hour patrols in shifts, arrests are few as women escape by recognizing plainclothes officers. Community rumor spreads quickly, yet violators resume solicitation once patrols ease. Fines up to 50 dollars and terms up to 30 days exist, with jail terms suggested but rarely used. Some keepers face harsher penalties, and abatement orders remain uncommon. Closing several houses is urged to curb solicitation and public nuisance.
