Newspaper Not To
Garry Bingo Ads

An inquiry to the local postoffice
officials here has brought out the
fact that there has been a regulation
against advertisements of games of
chance, lotteries, etc, which include
bingo games, it was stated this week
by Joseph Stanton, assistant post
master.
AS the result of the inquiry, Mr.
Stanton said he wrote to Frank J.
Delany, solicitor for the postoffice de-
partment, and received the following
reply:
Advertisements of bingo games in
newspapers render such papers non
mailable under Section Col, Postal
Laws and Regulations, regardless of
whether they are conducted for the
benefit of fraternal or religious or
CARNATIONS"
Therefore The Republican will not
carry any advertisements in regard
to bingo parties, as long as such
regulation is in effect.
