"LEGAL GAMBLING."
Stock Exchange Speculation
Mentioned. NEW BRITISH BILL. (Received 1 p.m.) LONDON", December 7. Sir Park Goff (Con., Rochester) inquired in the House of Commons whether, in view of the Government's decision to discountenance lotteries and sweepstakes, it would include in the proposed betting legislation a provision to withdraw legal recognition of the Stock Exchange margin debts. Sir John Gilmour, Homo Secretary, said the Government had not reached a decision relating to lotteries and betting. Ho could not forecast the provisions of the bill.
Sir Park Goff: Are you aware that the amount of Stock Exchange gambling far exceeds investments in lotteries and sweepstakes ?
Sir John Gilmour did not reply.
