   It’s a seedy time of the night and Jacky is telling me about sailors and their needs. A man called P. C. Alexander, an ex-Indian High-Commissioner in London has cleaned up Madras. There’s a very Puritan atmosphere here now, and the seamen are not happy. ‘All ship’s crew very happy with Calcutta. Can bring many girls there. Bombay too – no problem.’ Bombay is apparently the only city in India to license prostitutes.

   夜已深，气氛有些阴暗，杰基正跟我讲着水手们和他们的需求。一位名叫P·C·亚历山大的人，曾任印度驻伦敦高级专员，整顿了马德拉斯。现在这里弥漫着一股清教徒式的氛围，水手们很不高兴。“所有船员都对加尔各答很满意。可以带很多姑娘去那里。孟买也一样——没问题。”据说孟买是印度唯一一个给妓女发放许可证的城市。
