GAMBLING RAID
RIGHT UPHELD

ASsued by States Attorney Alan
Bowie that Prince Georges county
police can legally raid without a
warrant a building where they
suspect gambling is going on,
Perry Boswell, president of the
board of county commissioners,
today made definite plans to COM
plete the "housecleaning" now in
progress.
Mr.. Boswell asked Mr.. Bowie for
his opinion on the matter after
Chief ]. J. Crowley had insisted
that his men cannot raid a place
without proper legal papers.
Mr.. Boswell was told that the
language of the law is plain that
where police suspect gambling is
going on, they are empowered to
raid the place and make out their
charges on the evidence found.
Satisfied with that explanation
of the law, Mr.. Boswell said today
he is not asking the Attorney Gen
eral, Herbert O'Connor, for legal
aid, and that he is satisfied that
the county can clean it's own house
without such assistance.
With assurances from Jimmy
LaFontaine that he is content to
keep his Bladensburg White
House" closed, county police have
been directed to continue their
campaign against others gam
blers residing in the county.
Among them is said to be a well
known Washington figure, a
''kingpin" in the numbers racket.

and his very tensity initiates
against him. Instead of RELOCATING
the economic element to the back
ground as a thing of no Importance,
they only succeed in over emphasiz-
ing it.
You shouldn't urge the young
man into a situation which would
injure his pride. He'd take it out
on you in various small ways that
would endanger your love. Better
mark time little while longer until
things break better for him. And
after all, isn't the fear of losing him
what is uppermost in your mind?
Isn't he worth trusting after all?
Dear Jane Jordan-Seven years
ago my best girl friend Betty met
Jack. From that first date they
went steady all through college.
Betty's mother disapproved Of the
affair, but offered no constructive
suggestion, nor gave reasons
against it. Three years ago they
were secretly married. Six months
later, when it leaked out, her
mother was greatly enraged, sum-
moned Jack, bawled him out hor-
ribly and sent Betty home with
him on the next train.
The last few months Jack has
been leaving Betty while he goes
to a distant town over week-ends.
Upon his return he tells her Of
his trip to his former employers
home, where he spends SO much
time in the company Of the mans
daughter, a senior in high school.
Whenever Betty jokingly mentions
the other girl, he accuses her of
being jealous. He refuses to give
her any money except for run
ming expenses, and never takes
her anywhere.
Betty, however, continues to re-
main true blue and feels she
should for the sake Of their little
girl What do you think?
Answer think Betty probably
married because of the necessity of
asserting herself against a DOM
ineering mother. Now she is caught
in a worse trap than before. Jack
was by no means ready for the adult
problem of marriage. He is still a
flirtatious kid. Now Betty is under
the bitter necessity of admitting
that her mother was right after all.
If she is a courageous character,
she'll find some way to earn her
own living In no other way can
she compensate for her humiliation
and command the respect of her
irresponsible husband. There is
nothing to be gained by following
in his footsteps, nor can she remain
in her present position without
heartbreak Too bad that Betty
made growing up a harder process
than it needs to be by impulsively
jumping into situation for which
she was unprepared.

west, many, many miles from
here. He has" returned several
times to see me, and each time
tells me we will be married just
as soon as he finds a job.
I hold responsible position in
a bank and have told him we
could get along on my salary, but
he refuses. I admire him for his
pride, but don't you think that
in these times people should drop
a certain amount of it where hap
pineSS is concerned?
We could get along o K as
he isn't broke and won't be Tor
some time. Neither of us desire
children, so what is there to hold
us back? Things are bound to
break soon. We have gone to-
gether three years and it is i'm
possible to continue this way
without heartbreak, and I'm nearly
there. If lost him my life would
be over, because he has been my
one bright spot up to date. I
can't wait much longer.
FRANCES.
Answer admire you both. He
because he won't surrender his in
dependence and for his hardihood
in refusing to incur responsibilities
which he can not carry. You, be-
cause unlike many women, your
love is not dependent upon the
financial ADVANTAGES of acquiring a
husband.
It is said that the test of the
morale of an army consists OF its
ability to mark time under pressure
Certainly I know of no situation in
life harder to bear than those pc
RODS in which there is nothing to
do but stand still and mark time.
Women desperately in love are nc
respecterS of convention. They are
not guided by what is done and
what is not done. They will smash
all the rules of proper conduct high
wide and handsome to get to the
man they love.
Gallant gamblers in love, they are
led by the unruly heart and not by
the cooler head. They battle inertia
with fury and insist on doing
something" about the situation, no
matter what, Just so it's action OF
some sort! Better to err, better to
suffer, better to upset whole cart
full Of apples than to be thwarted
in a compelling desire!
The worst of it is that once mar
ried, and desire fulfilled, they are
apt to be influenced by the very
conventions which they threw out
with such vigor. After the flame
has subsidized it does make differ
ence what other people think. You,
for example, would shrink under the
half whispered gossip, "She supports
him she bought herself huS-
band" I've seen other women try
this very thing only to discover that
they weren't quite the magnanimous
person they though they were.
If the husband isn't grateful
enough, if he doesn't hustle enough,
if he doesn't show his appreciation
often enough, if he so much as
looks at another woman, resentment
arises like a subtle poison to infect
their whole relationship. The hus-
band, too, is on the defensive. He
becomes anxious to get a job,
