Gambling demoralizes charac
terv The United ' States supreme
court has declared: . "Gambling
is a general evil. leads to vicious
Inclinations, destruction of morals,
abandonment of Industry and hon
est employment.'. a loss of self con
trol and respect." "' - ,:
Gambling leads -feadily to other
crimes. It is said that In England
after every Derby, Ithe, great rac
ing event, they expect an after
math of suicides, thefts, embezzle
ments and bankruptcies. In a cer
tain' recent twelve-year period in
England there . were ,15-6 suicides
or attempted $uicidest719 cases of
theft and embezzlement, and 422
bankruptcies traceable.' directly to
gambling, it is estimatted that at
least $300,000,000 'exchanges
hands every year through gambl-
ing in England. ' If Is'nd "wonder
therefore that Lord Beaconsfield
tailed it a "vast engine of national
demoralization."
Gambling Is the antithesis of
every - principle - upon which a
strong civilization Is built. Civili
zation is built upon the principle
of Industry , and honest labor 'and
service. Yet gambling would en
courage men to seek fertune with
out making any adequate return in
service to society. I Civilization is
"built -by dependence, upon reason
and responsibility." "Gambling un
dermines the ordinary processes of
reason by ' appeal Jo ' chance and
luck. - r"7 ' i ''" "
Deetz Pickett 1 has well said :
"You "cannot leach thrift In the
face of fl gambling : craze, i You
can't safeguard tie prosperity of
the home without- fighting the
gamblers. You can't preach the
square deal when men are being
rewarded by chance' and rnt by
the amount of their return to so
ciety. You can t teach industry
without opposing everythihg which
tends to break down God's Jaw of
work! You can't preach, the broth
erhood of man without condemn
ing the gambling instinct which
leads a man to take from . his
brother without' adequate return."
Gambling is a !-social disease
which society has found It neces
sary to stamp out, not because of
the- agitation of narrow-mtnded
fanatics but because of the apti
socialTand demoralizing character
of gambling Itself. , It is an outr
law , In every state In .the : nnlon,
and we could not be loyal to the.
best Interests of America and show
It any toleration whatsoever. ;
Iiocal Gambling Situation
Let it be said at the outset, that
the discussion of gambling In Sa
lem does not imply a situation ex
tremely bad and smelling tof heav
en. 1 It is not. " Salem Is "a com
paratively clean town, one of the
cleanest in the state i We wish to
publicly" commend the splendid
work done by our mayorana ponce
committee In enforcing the city's
laws, and of making a clean city.
These men are high-minded and
unselfish 'men "who give freely of
their time - for the City's- welfare
and they Reserve our appreelation
and cooperation, But there Is no
real loyalty shown in Vkldding"
ourselves into thinking that Salem
is beyond Improvement or in ' re
fusing to face. the facts. Jf we have
a clean town, it is the business of
every high minded, citizen :to "be
Jealous for its reputation, and to
keep it clean. ; ,
The beginning of the present
move against gambling was made
by our own city council "several
weeks ago when they passed a new
gambling- ordinance. Our i city
council is made up of 'a group of
able and public-minded men The
new ordinance was -given careful
consideration and viewed frpni
every angle before Jt was passed,
I have examined ' that 'ordinance
rather carefully. It is a good or
dinance. The council is to be
warmly and heartily Worn mended
fpr their jwisdom and courageV In
passing Jt. In doing.so they have
merited the -gratitude and the
backing of all good citizens.
The question now is one of en
forcement. ' First-hand- informa
tion was brought to our official
board recently that while progress
had been made in enforcing some
aspects of this ordinance, there
was still a type of game being1
played In the pool rooms that is
plainly a violation of the ordi
nance and yet Is evidently being
permitted without interference.- -I
am not' personally acquainted with
thef" procedure, but am told that
the same involves the' use of
checks or "hickles" that are good
for trade, or can be cashed In for
a certain per cent ot. face value.
The, ordinance 'specifically, states
that no' game shall -be played . for
money, checks-, or anything, or
value, or any representative of
value.' ! .
The official board adopted reso
lutions addressed to the mayor and
council calling attention ! to these
violations and urging enforcement,
I am sorry that some officials are
reported) as considering these res
olutions an Insult. There Is abso
lutely no warrant for any such at
titude, as they were not intended
to be so, and the contention of the
resolutions has since been admit
ted to be true. Our only purpose
in offering them; was to call the
officials' attention to certain facts
and to assure them of the backing
of public sentiment in carrying out
their program of enforcement.
Since this ordinance has; been'
passed by the deliberate action 'of
the council, there are but two .pos
sible courses'. either the ordinance
should be changed or else it, should
be enforced. We are decidedly op
posed to the changing of.lt. It is
a splendid: ordinance, and any al
teration which: would remove the
