THE WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC. To-night, at His Majesty’s Theatre, there will be screened (by arrangement with the Feature Film Co.), a realistic film exposing the horrible slave traffic. In deciding to film the story, the makers realised that, in dealing with such delicate material, anything in the nature of sensationalism was to be scrupulously avoided. What bad to'be accomplished was to lay bare the broad facts' of an infamous trade, expose the methods of those employed in it, and by the fullest publicity warn both parents and thendaughters of the terrible danger at their gates. This, according to leading press writers, has been successfully acacomplished. A special supporting programme has been arranged.
