NO WASHINGTON TURF GAME
Ant-Racetrack Gambling Bill! Passes
House and Senate.

Olympia. Wash, Feb. 1.-The anti
racetrack gambling bill passed the
senate yesterday. The bill passed the
house last week. The bill makes pool
selling, bookmaking. or conducting
places where bets are made on horse
races a felony. and provides that the
possession of gambling paraphernalia
is prima facie evidence of violation OF
the act
An emergency clause which, il
adopted. would put the law into effect
Immediately, was the principal bone Of
contention in the Senate yesterday.
The vote 'stood 23 for the emergency
clause and is against. a two-thirdS
vote was necessary for its passage.
Without the clause the law becomes
effective June II.
The house treated the senate's de-
feat of the emergency clause as an
amendment to the act and by tho
unanimous viva voce vote refused TO
concur. The controversy between the
two houses leaves the status of the
main bill in doubt.

1t is quite possible to enunciate clearly
