WILL JUSTIFY" WALL STREET
Governor Hughes Investigating Com
mittee Is Ready to Report.

Governor Hughes investigating Conn
mittee Is Ready to Report.
Some time back Gov. Hughes of
New York appointed commission to
investigate Wall street gambling.
The commission is to report shortly.
A forecast of the report, in the New
York Press, says the commission will
deprecate Wall street gambling, but
will justify it as a necessary evil.
The gambling in Wall street that is
objected to is the betting whether
a certain stock will be up or down
at a certain time, which, morally,
seems not different from betting
whether a certain horse will win in
the races, or a certain hand of cards
is the highest around the table.
