* - THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER Rotary Speaker Points To Evils, Hazards Of Gambling "There is no such thing as | luck," Rev. E. Benson Perkins, of Birmingham, England, told Rotari ans, and the 47 guests from eight states here Friday. The British preacher, secretary of the World Methodist Council, togethe' with Dr. Elmer T. Clark, discussed gambling, and the proposed gambling laws now being consid ered for England. "The English are about to enact three laws, and I fear the results will be deplorable," the speaker said. He. cited the laws as: 1. A state lottery, sponsored by charity-or sports. 2. Premium bonds, where the interest is put into a pool and used for prize money drawing via lot tery; and 3. Legalized cash betting of fices. "Then we have horse racing, dog racing, and the introduction of the electric hare which we learned from Agpuft-a and wish you had kept, at 11 as the betting on dif ferent sports. "Gambling destroys the -spirit of good sportsmanship," the speaker said, as he termed gambling as im moral. "Gambling is economically un justified?nothing is gained but ex citement, and money gained through gambling loses its true value. "One cannot gain in gambling ex cept through the loss of another. "People who gamble put risk and uncertainty in control, and unjusti fied risk is mischievous. Gambling is degrading of the finest qualities of life, and all peoples, over the world, must fight to overcome the growing gambling evil," he con cluded.
