Gambling Ring
In Ell CentrO

Charges m a d e before a
Los Angeles county grand
jury that FL CentrO is in
cluded in a coaSt-Wide orien-
tai lottery ring, came as a
surprise to Imperial county and El
Centre officials Thursday.
The charges were made in Los
Angeles by Assembly Speaker Will
liam MoSeley Jones. chairman of
the assembly interim coordinating
committee investigating vice condi-
tionS in Los Angeles He made
the statement to the Los Angeles
county grand jury and included a
reference to five murders he alleged
were connected with the activities
of the syndicate operating on the
Pacific coast.
A cursory check with county and
municipal officials here revealed
that if such an establishment does
exist it is operated with the utmost
secrecy.
Mayor Roy Womack and Police
Commissioner Gordon Scriven said
they knew nothing of oriental gam
bling in El Centre. Sheriff Robert
w. Ware and District Attorney
Elmer Heald said they had not
been informed of such activity in
the city.
IF the Los Angeles county grand
jury has information which would
be valuable to the Imperial county
grand jury" Heald said, lit should
be made available to the Imperial
county investigating body"
Chief of Police j. Sterling OsWalt
was in Arizona Thursday in con-
nection with a San Diego murder
and could not be reached for a
statement.
The Oriental lottery ring sup
posedly was organized at Seattle in
1909 and still maintains head
quarters there. A Los Angeles po-
lice captain was named as the pay
off, man in Los Angeles.
According to the informant, Jones
said, the original head of the lot
terry was killed III Los Angeles in
1881: his successor was assassinated
in Sacramento in 1884, and the next
boss was shot in San Francisco a
year later. Two aides also were
supposedly assassinated, one in
Guadalupe.
The lottery operates in San Fran
cisco, Guadalupe, Walnut Grove,
