AGAINST
HANDBOOkING
BADLY NEEDED
By Percy II. Whiting.

THE attention Of the men who
have gathered for the purpose
of making new laws for Geor-
gia is called to the fact that this
State needs a law against gambling.
Yes. it has one, but it is not ade-
quate to prevent handbook gambling.
Under the present law, so we are
informed by attorneys of great prom
inence, a man could parade up and
down Peachtree Street offering bets
on baseball games and horse races,
and not be liable 10 arrest.
So long as he had no fixed place
of business and'could not be arrest
I, ed for conducting a gambling house
he is immune.
THIS is a wretched state of affairs.
Handbook gambling ought to De
prohibited by law 1t leads to more
serious gambling, it gets boys and
young men started in the wrong way,
it results in petty thievery, wasted
money. It lines the purses of the
gambling gentry. often at the expense
Of mothers and children who would
have had the benefit of the money
game or q horse race.
THE worst feGture of the handbook
gambling, perhaps, is its wretch
ed Influence on the sports themselves
OF course racing isn't worth saw
ing.
No SPORTS that exists for gambling
alone is
But baseball is. That is the great
national sport and thus far it has
been kept practically above sus-
picion
If gambling on the games contin-
ues long it will not escape suspicion
and it will doubtless deserve sus-
picion and worse
If only to save the greatest Of
American sports handbook gambling
should be stopped.
TT is not presumed that a mere law
will prevent betting. But it will
at least drive it to cover and yank
off the mask Of ~aspeCtability If
it isn't against the law to run
handbook why shouldn't anybody do
it? That is what a lot of them ask.
And it is a hard question to answer,
If a measure to prevent handbook
gambling could be put before the
Legislature it would go through fly
ing.
There isn't a man who would vote
against it. They would all realize
that such a law ought to be on the
books.
But viii anybody bring such a law
before them and see that it comes
to a vote2
It would do more good for the
State of Georgia than many a law
hthat will be passed.
