GAMBLING HOUSES MUST GO,
 SAYS MAYOR GAYNoR
Makes Plain His Attitude in Letter
 to Brooklyn Lawyer.

New York Nov. 22.-Mavor Gaynor made plain thls afternoon his attitude toward gambling houses in New York. He says they must go. Writing to a Brooklyn lawyer who complained that for two weeks the police had held pos session of a clients saloon. on the charge that it was e gambling house, the mayor says:
 "A mans house Is his castle. as you correctly say. but I have never yet heard it said that mans gambling house is his castle. When the police find a public nuisance they should then take possession of it until the nuisance is fully abated and that ts what they propose to do with gar1- bling places and the like. It is of very little use to walk into them and arrest the proprietor and then walk out again. We do not intend to have the law enforced in that feeble way, but, on the contrary. the amply pow CTS given by law to the police to sup press nuisances is going to be exer- cised."

He said tonight that he had received a flood of congratulatory messages for the action he had taken and also a flood of complaints from persons who say they have been victimized. John Emerson. a bricklayer. complained at the federal building today that he had invested s2.000 in mining stock adver- tised by the Burrs and had received no returns. Thus he lost a life's savings.
 The bricklayer said he had recently received literature from the company advising him to exchange his mining stock for oil stock. A letter signed "E. H. Burr" counseling such action, he turned over to the authorities It says in part:
 ''To be frank with you, we are about as discouraged with the mining busi- ness as you are. and we decided to dis continue all mining operations and di- rect our energies toward the financing and development of California oil properties.
 Would you like to change upon a reasonable basis the stock you hold in the British-American Copper Mines and Smeltins company for stock in one of our active successful oil com panies From your standpoint such an exchange would seem Very advan- tageous. as your British American stock as 1t now stands is of little or no value and the exchange proposition we speak of would perhaps be the only way of saving the money you have in vested in British-American stock
