The paper insists that France in re- ality is the mokt decent country on the globe, and one where home life and virtue are mest beautifully - ex- emplified s yet" abroad, and especially in the United States, scandalous French literature is circulated and the extent of the monstrous white slave traffic has given her the reputation of being the centre of depravity.
