SLAM WOULD SUPPRESS GAMBLING

New York, March 16.-That tho
United States and England, with other
Christian nations will soon be asked TO
help the king Of Siam put an end to
legalized gambling in bis country, is
the assertion made today by the Rev.
DIR. Arthur j. Brown, secretary Of the
Presbyterian foreign board, on the
strength Of advices just received by him
from Siam. Gambling in Siam has been
licensed and encouraged by the gov
ernment, the monopoly of conducting
the gambling establishments Of the
cities and towns being auctioned off
80 the highest bidders. Effort has long
been making TO get the king to put
aD end TO the government patronage Of
the evil, and he has just issued de-
cree to that effect In large part of
che country gambling is to be stopped
on April first next, in other country
districts year from April; and in
Bangkok, the principal city, in April
Of 1907 But for the fulfllment of the
plan the Christian nations Of the world |
must help.
The Rev. DIR. Brown, explaining the
part which this country and England

ling in Bangkok shall or shall not be
stopped. Siam is an extra-territorial
country, and by treaties the import
dues are fixed at per cent, and they
cannot be raised without the permis.
sion Of the nations.
"There are 103 gambling places in
the interior of Siam. By the kings
decree so of them will be abolished
next April. The remainder of these
interior places will be abolished in
April, 1906; and those in the city of
Bangkok will be closed the following
year if the matter Of revenues can be
adjusted. In this way the change will
be a gradual one, and in little over
a year the whole of the evil will be
centered in Bangkok, where is to be
found the largest occidental population

and the monarch who, for an Asiatic
ruler, is enlightened and progressive,
has come to see that this is tru-.
"But," continued DR.. Brown, "the
king has a difficulty to face because a
large part Of the revenue Of Siam is

trades, has effected permanent organi-
cation. 1t contains thirty-tnree unions
engaged in the building trades
with an aggregate membership of 75,-

the old board OF building trades of
which Sam Parks was president.
Arbitration of all difficulties is pro-
vided for under the constitution, which
states that strikes viii be a last resort.
Within short while committee will
be appointed to wait on the building
