STATE LOTTERIES.
PROTEST BY CHURCHMEN. In a telegram forwarded to the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Hon. W. F.. Parry, a protest against the suggested State lotteries was made by Archbishop Averill as president of the Auckland Diocesan Churchmen's Association. The telegram was worded as follows: '"The president and executive of the Diocesan Churchmen's Association protest against the increased facilities for gambling envisaged in your proposal to institute State lotteries in this Dominion. We urgently request you to consider the moral deterioration and wrecking of homes already caused by this anti-social evil before you take any steps to increase its hold upon the people."
