General Knx has rendered to the postmaster-general
an opinion on whether
certain western dally papers have vio
lated the law prohibiting the use of the
malls by advertising lotteries, gift con
certs and similar enterprises.
A paner advertised that it would give
prizes to persons making the nearest
estimates of the number of paid ad
missions to the Pan-American exposi
tion. The attorney-general says:
"I am unable to reach a conclusion
that the giving of prizes as a reward"
for superior intelligence In estimates,
where human intellect existed in making
such estimates, is in purview of the
statute and a convlc.ton cannot be er
ected of the demoralizing tendencies to
which you refer."
