.CRAPSHOOTERS AND BRIDGE PLAYERS Look Alike to Miss Alice Robertson, Congress
 woman From
 Oklahoma

TULSA, Okla.-Crap shooters and bridge players alike will feel the iron hand of the law if Miss Alice Robert son, congresswoman elect has her way about it. In an address to hund- reds of women here today. Miss Rob ertson said:
 You pick up a newspaper and on the front page you see where some boys were put in jail for shooting craps. On the society page you read where Mrs. Van der Rockefeller has held a bridge party with so many tables and that such and such prizes were awarded to this and that promi- nent society woman. The prizes were more than all the money the boys were shooting craps for.
 Now I think that gambling is as bad in one form as in another, and l do not think our boys should be pun ished for shooting craps, and our wom- en who gamble at bridge parties not be punished.
 T do not know whether I am going to like my new job or not, but 1 am going to try it for while and do the best that I can to bring about simple living and honest lawmaking.''
