Senator Claude Swanson of Virginia;
Representative Nicholas Longworth
of Ohio, and Representative J. E..

Mah-Jongg Is Not
Game of Chance, Is
Ruling of Court

Manila, Sept. 26.-Mah Jongg, the
great Chinese game of dominoes, is
not game of chance. A competent
court Of the land has ruled thus,
and it is so ordered.
The above decision was rendered
in case against Teo Long, Lee 10y,
So Chez and Kuong Chang, all
Chinese, arrested on the charge of
gambling. The case came before
Judge Manuel v. Moran, who based
his decision on the case Of the United
States VS.. Long-sin. In his decision,
however, Judge Moran regrets the
fact that local authorities have not
approved any measure regulating the
game, as he believes that Mah-Jongg
is a game in which fortunes may be
won and lost.
Judge Moran makes a lengthy anal
ysis of the game in which he says
that while the element of luck plays
an important part in the winning OF
the hand, the game in itself is one
of ability rather than luck He con-
cludes that the element Of luck is
limited, and as the game advances
this element is more and more re-
duced by the proficiency Of the
player.
His conclusion that in Mah-J ongg
fortunes may be won or lost. is based
en- a story in which it is related that
four wealthy Chinese once played
the game. wagering a grain Of rice
for each title. The player playing
