They were aware that Huerta, IN in
his desperate need of money, had held
off until last January before he would
agree to sell gambling concessions
saying, Gambling is the worst thing
that | can infiict on Mexico
For many years open gambling and
the sale of gambling concessions had
been prohibited in Mexico and the cor
respondents were aware that it was
with great reluctance that the sorely
pressed Huerta finally turned to the
sale of gambling concessions for
funds.
AS soon as the correspondents saw
the gambling houses running full tilt
under the American military rule, they
took the matter up with Provost Gen
eral Plummer.
Eyes," answered Plummer, have
permitted the man who holds the
gambling concession here to open up
his houses again. He helped the ma
rines greatly with information when
they first landed here and if we let
him run he will see that gambling is
confined only to his own places. In
that way we can regulate gambling"
One correspondent, however, went to
Captain Bamford, the military chief
of police and said to him:
How much are the gamblers paying |
for running their places in Vera

Well" he answered, we found |
that they were paying the city gov

The Summer White
House
Proposed in new bill to es-
tablish summer executive quar-
tiers permanently in Virginia
Hills.
By Victor Elliott.

| WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
ISwanson's proposal that Mt Weather,
Va, be designated as the official sum-
mer residence of the president has
created much interest in Washington,
especially among the diplomatic corps
and in social circles Senator Swan
son has introduced bill providing
that the government buildings on Mt
Weather until recently occupied by
tile weather burea as an observation
station, be transformed into a summer
White House.
Introduction of his bill revealed the
| fact that many persons, even some
who have resided in Washington for
years, did not know the location of
Mt. Weather and had not, in fact, ever
heard of the place. AS a result much
inquiry has been made and Mt Wealth
er is now on the map in the minds of
the people of this city and others who
are interested. 1t is believed that
President Wilson is favorable to the
place as summer home, as Virginia
is the state where he was born and
which he still thinks of as his boy
hood home.
Is Slightly Place.
Mt. Weather Is cross between an
overgrown hill and an understood
mountain in the Blue Ridge about half
hundred miles from Washington. Its
height and location made it particul-
arly desirable for weather observa-
tons and the weather bureau years
ago established station On top of
the mountain.
From the height can be seen miles
and miles of the beautiful Schenan-
doah valley, spread out in a panoramic |
view such as is seldom seen in the
eastern part of the country Through
the valley divided into fields and
grazing lands almost as regular as
q checker board can be seen the sill
yer line of the Shenandoah river
Turning your back to this view you
see another valley which slopes grad
tally down to the Potomac river while
o your right or left, between the two
ALLEYS stretch away miles and miles .
# hills, as far as the eye can see.

lgton. The site is improved by a
irge modern building which has been
sed by the weather bureau. This
uilding has been abandoned as the
ureau has finished it's work at the A
-ation. The building sits upon a sort N
{ plateau almost as fiat as a tennis II
