Prussia is losing its gambling

debauch so noticeable in the wine

lowing the war. Money is more
scarce and minds are more sane.
In 1919, when the high-water
mark of dissipation was reached,
the government closed many OF
these places and reduced the ac-
tivity in others. This year only
three gambling concessions have
been applied for from the water
ing places.
According to the Berlin Tage-
blatt, secret gambling Is still run

marks (normally $476) nightly for
the privilege of operating, but he
wins from 10000 to. 10000 marks

night. A regular organization of
scouts rounds up the players and

these rights are necessarily de-

LONDON, July 9.-There has been
this last week a special edition OF the
London Times celebrating the anni-
versary of the independence of the
United States and a day or two be-
fore there was an imposing gather
ing in Trafalgar Square honoring the
memory of George Washington.
These proceedings. might seem al
most at first to suggest licking the
hand that smote US. They are, as
matter of fact, true indications of
the modern British attitude regard
ing great achievement and of the
desire prevalent in Great Britain that
the two peoples should again regard
themselves as one in spirit.
The average Britisher's opinion re-
specting the historic blunders of the
eighteenth century are much the same
as those of the average American citl-
zen. He knows that on this side there
was for the time an absence OF true
craftsmanship ON the part of those at
the helm. and that on the other side
of the Atlantic love of liberty was
finding expression from those who had
been nurtured on British soil.
The unveiling of George Washing
tons statue in Trafalgar square dlu
not figure in our minds as the honor
ing Of a citizen of another country SO
much as the recognition of the worth
Of one of our own fighters for free
dom.
The Britisher of today joins with
the American citizen in commemorat-
ing the triumph of right in the past
and in taking courage for future
achievement in mutual helpfulness.
The 'far-off, dim, unhappy days and
battles Of long ago" are by us buried
in the mist of an evil past. So it is in
no spirit Of envy, but rather in feel
ing Of pride that we wish good luck
to the United States in the future ca
