BETTING AND LOTTERIES
AMENDMENTS TO BILL LONDON, November 15. (Received Nov. 16, at 8 p.m.) The House of Lords agreed to the amendments made by the House of Commons in the Betting and Lotteries .Bill. The Marquess of Londonderry emphasised that, though a citizen, as under the present law, would be able to send or share in a ticket in the Irish or any other lottery, this would not give the right to sweep promoters to flood the country with tickets. The Bill represented a determination to restrict the flow of money to sweepstakes out of the country. The Government would take the necessary steps to achieve that object.
