STORY OF WHITE SLAVERY
NUN GATHERS INFORMATION. > A remarkable story of the experiences of an Italian Sister of Mercy, who undertook to obtain first-hand information regarding the white slave traffic, is contained in the second volume of the report of the League of Nations. Sister Paulina Luisa, says he report, changed into ordinary clothes and deli bernely visited those places in Marseilles, Naples, and Genoa, where the white slave traffic was carried on. She represented herself as being interested in recruiting girls for the traffic, and thus gained the confidence of some of the principal agents. Admitted to their secret meetings, she was able to acquire important information as to the way these people went about their work —information which the League’s committee could not otherwise have obtained. As the result of her adventures she has received communication from persons whose activities she has exposed, threatening her with death, and sho has therefore been compelled to take refuge in religious institutions in France.
