The objection manifested in some quarte.5
IN Congress against loan for twenty
years is not well founded; in fact, 1t Is in
conceivable from the standpoint of bust
ness man that any proposition negative to
this most sensible should for moment
be reasonably considered, much less ad-

ut is injudlcious, unstatesmanlike and
unfair to even hesitate in giving us as

to be paid back and taken from super

to draw from current funds money for the

The Police and Gambling Games.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
It seems that whenever the police under
take to enforce penal statute. 1t is aga INST
the humble and smaller offenders. Mon
days papers contained an account Of raids
in alleged gambling rooms. where there was
80 cents on the table in one case and very
small amount In another. Surely the police
are not ignorant Of the fact that in almost
every hotel in Washington there are sew
eral large games nightly, and then in the
swell clubs games are run for large stakes
Why not raid some of these and not con-
fine themselves to small games, where a
few mechanics or breadwinners meet to
while away an evening at penny ante.
Surely the law against gambling was not
meant to be discriminative, to be enforced
against poor men, while the wealthy and
swell set are not to be disturbed or are
they afraid Of running against some Of the
higher officials of the city government in
the larger and more pretenuous games?
There must be some reason for such ap-
parently studied discrimination. For the
past two years superhuman efforts have
been made by the police to break up Chesa-
peake Junction, very properly. 1t is true,
but surely the police know that this city is
reeking with the very conditions to be
found at the junction. Why not first cast
the beam from our own eye before we
bother about the mote innour neighbors?
