Outstanding report; thanks for posting this! So informative. However, regarding your comment, "the war to end all wars", I believe this phrase was used in the press to describe World War I; not World War II.

Violations of these*doctrines they were told would be met with swift punishment of beatings, fines, imprisonment, and finally banishment.

In addition, all of the girls were taken to the police station on Bethel Street and given a Territorial tax book and a General Excise Tax license as they were now licensed as "entertainers. " *This license cost them each $1 per year. *Further, every girl was informed that at the end of each month the Vice Squad would come by to collect an unofficial tax of $30 from them. *Most of the Squad and some patrolmen would also come in for their weekly*"tip" of oral or*regular sex in exchange for not hassling the girls when they walked around Honolulu.

The girls paid Federal income taxes, as well as state taxes. "It has been said that (the) girls and*Madams*are the heaviest tax payers in Honolulu. Each girl in Honolulu can average from $4,000 per month to $5,000 per month ($70,000 to $90,000 in 2019) with each girl servicing 50 to 60*"clients" per day. Taxes are collected by the Madam of the house, who also files the returns for them. " (O'Hara) *This money was achieved because the ladies or*"inmates", a termed used by the police worked six days a week,*usually from 1 pm to 5 am for six months*straight before they were given time off for a vacation.

There were 18 brothels operating with an average of 11 women in each house in Honolulu and at these rates they were bringing in approximately $1,000,000 per month ($18,500,000 per month or over $220 million per year in today's dollars). *The estimated police's share, which greased many local politicians' palms was $4. 5 million a year (over $81 million in 2019), without any reports being required. *Everyone was getting fat and happy and the girls behaved under Gabrielson's iron fisted rule until World War II broke out and a pucky Irish woman stood up for her constitutional rights. *.

This rebellious Irish girl was Betty Jean O'Hara (pictured above) who was known as*"The Honolulu Harlot". *Ms. O'Hara*was a*professional prostitute and as author William Bradford Huie described her,*"that, physically, she had been almost perfectly assembled for the satisfaction of vigorous lust. " *.

After the war*broke out, the USA Army unofficially took over the prostitution business because with over 50,000+ soldiers now on island on any given day they wanted their soldiers to be relaxed and have*"good healthy recreation". As Winston*Churchill said of the British Royal Air Force, "Never. Have so many owed so much to so few". Under*miltiary*control, each girl was now servicing over 100 men per day. $3. 00 for 3 minutes or $5. 00 for 5 minutes and the girls could keep 2/3 of the money and not have to pay extortion money.

O'Hara a favorite of the officers, shined and created what is now known as the*"Bull Pen" to service the *"boys" on island. *She had the military set up a warehouse and each girl had her pen; three stalls, the first, the service man would walk into and disrobe, a nurse would check him for*venereal disease and he would get a condom, he would then go into stall 2 and have sex, the third stall was for washing, getting dressed, and then getting a shot of penicillin from another nurse as he walked out the door. *.

With the pens now working, O'Hara*often dressing her 39"-24"-36" body and standing 5' 10" tall in 6 inch ruby red stiletto heels, ruby lipstick, flaming long blonde hair draping her shoulders, and in a smoking hot red statin robe would*walk in and most of the soldiers whose average age was 21 were done before she even touched them. She would see up to 200 men a day. The money was good. She made over $600,000 ($9 million today) in her 3 years with the*military and purchased a lot of real*estate in both Honolulu and San Francisco. She drove a Lincoln*convertible and*partied at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Waikiki, which had been forbidden under Gabrielson. Life with freedom was good.

But in late 1944 with the war ending everything changed for her and the girls as the Army gave the business back to Gabrielson and his Vice Squad. *The police and many locals hungry for the*extortion money they had lost in the war were very*anxious for control to return to them. Everyone except O'Hara. She defied the police's rules and conditions*and stated she was a*taxpayer with rights. In response, the Chief had his men go to her brothel, beat her black and blue in front of the other girls to establish fear. They broke two of her ribs and dragged her off to jail for four days.

However, instead of succumbing to*intimidation and the Squad's brutality, O'Hara fought back and filed a $100,000 lawsuit against the Police department and Gabrielson. The lawsuit was dropped after the Chief apologized. But now with hatred over a*"Tramp" forcing him to publicly apologize and*defy his power, he had her arrested a few months later on trumped up charges of attempted murder. For weeks all the sordid details of life as a prostitute in Honolulu was exposed to the*"good people" of Honolulu in the press. In the end it only took the jury five minutes to find her not guilty. *Chief Gabrielson was humiliated and forced to resign within a year. *.

O'Hara now very wealthy, quit the business and retired to San Francisco where she*wrote a booklet exposing the graft and*corruption of prostitution in Hawaii in 1944*titled,*" My Life As A Honolulu Prostitute". *William Bradford Huie,*one of the most successful American journalists and authors of the 20th century who had written twenty-one books that sold over 30 million copies worldwide. *knew her*personally*and*wrote the novel,*"The Revolt of Mamie Stover" in 1951*based very tightly on her life. *The book sold over one million copies and was subsequently made into a hit movie in 1956 starting Jane Russell. *.

The*Territorial government fearing this*publicity would ruin their chances for future Statehood voted to make prostitution illegal in 1946 and all brothels were closed. However, as we all know, prostitution and sex trafficking*being*"the oldest profession in the world", continues to thrive and profit in Hawaii*with the high demand for entertainers for tourists. And as for Betty Jean O'Hara. She died in 1973 at the age of 60.Her*legacy lives on; a hated ***** by the cops of Honolulu, a hero for sex workers of her day, and the best sexual fantasy of many a serviceman who fought the war to end all wars.

Why run for office and get stressed out? Politicians here are not much better than you or I. It's just a popularity contest every 4 years.
