THE LOTTERY QUESTION AGAIN

AS readers are aware The Citizen
has on several occasions advocated the es-
adjustment of national and state lotteries,
and it makes no apologies for having done
so. There is reason for this attitude. 1t
is the hope that legalized lotteries will do
away with the prostitution of the duties of
public officials who accept and demand
protection money from the small gambling
establishments, and the further draining
of the meager earnings of the small wage
Garner. If there must be gambling and
there always will be, why shouldn't the
profits go to the public treasury for the
common good rather than to few petty
gamblers and crooked officials?
1t is quite true that the trend of the
sentiment in the United States has been
and still is against the establishment of
legalzed lotteries and that drastic legisla-
ton for their suppression has been en-
acted, but it is also a truism that of two
evils the lesser should be chosen.
1t may not be generally known that
an American national lottery was in
sttuted by the Congress of 1776 and that
between that date and 1920 at least
seventy acts were passed by Congress au-
thorizing lotteries for public purposes,
such as schools and other improvements.
During the presidency of Washing
ton, Harvard College supported itself in
part by a grand lottery, with capital
prizes as high as $4,000.
Most European governments have at
some time or another employed national
lotteries as a means of raising funds for
the public treasures, and municipal lot
teries have been common. Cuba has con-
Quoted a national lottery since the forma-
ton of the republic.
France financed the war of the
Spanish Succession by lottery which was
not suppressed until 1886. England au-
thorized lotteries for harbor improvements
and for the financing of the Virginia Com
pany, which founded the early settle
ments in America, and raised government
funds by that means until 1924.
Religious and charitable organiza-
tiOns were in some countries permitted to
operate lotteries; long after the govern
ments had abolished them as national in
situations.

GOOD NEWS WITH AN OFF"

The newspapers are SO filled with
news of war, preparations for warfare and
the clashing ambitions of dictators that
we are glad to be able, once in while, to
chronicle the views of anybody who thinks
that, maybe after all, there will be peace.
So we seize upon the remarks of Sir
Keith Murdoch, visiting Australian news
paper publisher, who says the armament
race need not necessarily lead to war,
which would involve all nations in disaster,
economic as well as military. However,
he hedges bit when he urges America to
join with Britain in ''giving lead to weak
er nations economically which is the
way of peace" because he adds ''there is
not much time. left in which to achieve
it."
