TO PASS ANTI
|. GAMBLING LAW
City Commission Working
on Measure Similar to
One Recently Read, But
Ignoring Society Bridge
Will Tighten Lid.

The city commission will adopt an
anti gambling ordinance II will pre-
sent the principal features of the
state ti-gambling law with such
additional clauses as will make the
ordinance imperative so ia. as con-
Germs society affairs where bridge is
played or church fairs where raffles
and srabbags are features. In
sense it will be the enactment of the
same ordinance recently introduced
by Mayor Young and referred to d
committee which has so far failed
to report thereon. This much has
been learned from members of the
commission who do not wish it to
appear that they favor gambling or
that they are so much inclined to
ignore it they are not willing to
adopt a measure for the guidance of
the city manager and the chief of
rolice.
Instead of being inactive with re-
CARDS to the proposed anti gambling
ordinance, it is learned, the commits
sion has been giving the matter very
serious consideration. 1t is quite
possible, now that City Attorney
Christy is again on the job, that the
revised proposed measure will be
ready to be reported upon before the
commission takes its proposed recess
during the entire month of August
While for time there was a sen
timent to ignore the first proposed
gambling ordinance and to offer
a substitute therefor. it is now be-
lieved that the commission really de
sires to act in harmony with Mayor
Young so far as possible, but will
insist upon the elimination of the
various social affairs from the class
that would come in for prosecution.
In this respect it is understood the
commission feels the proposed ordin-
ance, Notwithstanding being a copy
of the state statutes is too drastic as
far as it concerns local conditions
With the probability that the com
mission will adopt such an ordinance
Manager Parish and Chief Brisbo:s
are only awaiting the further action
OF the city fathers before taking
steps looking to the stopping OF such
forms of gambling as it may be
found now exist. This probably
means that slot machines, the TWEEN
ty-six' game and the punch boards
must go There is a consensus of
opinion that, outside of these games
openly conducted, there is little table
or clubroom gambling in Phoenix at
the present time.

Chief of Police George o. Brisbois
Immediately detailed his entire force
to take up the search for the man
