hibit interstate transmission of rae
ing news to gambling establishments.

ing spots for crime" the resolution
declared.
The officers sent a statement to
President Roosevelt saying they would
protest vigorously against any legis-
lation designed to restrict the use Of
all forms Of gas to Army and Navy
forces. .....
