Gambling is pledging on an
uncertain issue with chance as
the sole principle. 1t takes place
when "as a result of a bet, prop
erty is transferred from one to
another upon the occurrence of
an event, which, to the two
parties to the bet, was a matter
of complete chance, or as nearly
SO as their judgement of condi-
tons would make it." 1T is the
will to have no will, no voice in
deciding whether it is to con-
; tinue mine or to pass out of my
possession. Neither | nor any
other human being is to decide,
but only chance" Gambling is
]. a kind of action by which pleas
ure is gained at the cost of pain
to another for the other is sac
rificed for the self"
Why Do People Gamble?
"In good times John Doe
CANDLES because he has plenty
of spending money. In bad times
because he is more than ever
anxious to get something for
nothing"
/ Young people give their reas-
icons as the following: gambling
IA natural instinct and gives a
in offering the chance to
omething without giving too
= Its the smart and popular
to do because "everybody'S
it," 1t makes one feel like
Dig shot" to win in public.
I'VE don't see what's wrong with
it, if properly used-after all,
churches do the same thing.
Leading citizens gamble. We
don't have anything else to do
with our spare time. 1t keeps us
from being too concerned about
getting a job when they are no
jobs"
General reasons commonly
used are:
l. 1t satisfies ones craze for
thrilling excitement, and so, it
fits into our fast-moving age. 1t
meets the desire for next exper-
fence.
: 2. 1t has become the popular
and smart thing to do because
society seems to have accepted it
as a natural part of itself.
3. People are DESTROYS of get
ting something for nothing. 1t
works on the same principle as
the ''get-rich-quick" schemes.
4. We choose the line of least
resistance in all actions and it's
easier to gamble under these
conditions than it is not to
gamble.
5. Life in general seems to be
a gamble in some respects.
6. Most people are ignorant of
the evils of gambling.
What's Wrong With Gambling?

important reason).

appeal is destructive of character
and leads to grosser forms of
gambling and dishonesty.
VIII-That, in the interest of
honest business methods by and
for tradesmen and customers,
and in the proper manner, time
and place, we propose to our
lawmaking bodies legislation
against all manner of gambling,
with penalties severe enough to
make the practice unwise, I'M

Does anyone suppose that a
gambler really CANDLES with his
customers? What a fool he would
be-" Cheating by gamblers is
well known.
For every $4,000, 900 worth of
honest sweepstakes tickets sold
in this country, another $5,000,-
900 worth of false tickets are
sold just as easily. Generally
speaking, one-fourth of all gen.
uine Irish tickets sold in this
country never reach the draw
ing wheels because the money is
pocketed by the seller. In one
month in 1887, the post office is
sued orders against 412 lottery
operators, the most of which
were crooked. A few months
later, orders were placed against
$50 operators. One raid in New

(2)-Gambling is wrong, even
if you win.
What is right and what is
wrong? That which produces
social happiness is the right, and
that which produces social mis-
cry is wrong. Recalling the def
milton of gambling, the prob
lem is not whether you have a
right to spend a particular sum
of money upon a particular
pleasure, but whether you have
a right in spending your money
upon that pleasure to stop out
side the conditions of rational
human action, to resign the use
of your own manhood, in rela-
ton to that sum of money"

gain, cheating is made easier.
(b) Gambling is a%nti-social.
The spirit of true living is sac
rifice. 1t is glorious and redemp-
tive, containing the presence of
love and wisdom and power on
the one side, and of conscious
need, trust and gratitude on the
other. Through these forces the
pain of one man became the
fountain of another's happiness,
even though the latter has sor-

Early u. S. Recognition
OF Boo Doi Indicated

Early American recognition of
the French-sponsored Bao Dai
government in Indo-China was
indicated today by Secretary of
State Acheson.
At the same time, Mr.. Acheson
said, Soviet recognition of Ho
Chi-minh's rival Communist
movement should reveal "Ho in
his true colors as the mortal
enemy Of native independence in
Indo- China"
Mr.. Acheson told a news con-
ference that the Russian action
was an effort to CLOUD" French
transfer of sovereignty to Laos,
Cambodia and Wet Nam in Indo-
China. The most important area,
Wet Nam, is headed by Emperor
Bao Dai.
French ratification of agree
ments transferring sovereignty to
the three areas is expected within
a few days, Mr.. Acheson said.
This will open the way, he said,
"for recognition of these legal
governments by the countries of
the world whose policies support
the development of genuine ma
tional independence in former
colonial areas"

Philippines Hit u. S.

A member of President Elpidio
Quirino's Liberal Party charged
in the Philippine Congress yester-
day that American agencies or
citizens were to blame for 80 per
cent of the irregularities involv-
ing surplus property turned over
to the Philippines.
The cabinet also approved re-
port from Budget Commissioner
Pho Joven that much of the theft
and looting of war surplus mate.
rial was because the United States
did moi turn over military bases
promptly.
Official Filipino circles are in
an uprosr over old, but recently
revived reports published in Amer
lean newspapers that thore were
widespread irregularities in the
transfer of the surpluses. -AP.
