AERIAL RAIDS INDICATE
CRITICAL PERIOD OF WAR
LONDON, April 17 The expected
night raids bv the Germans did not
materialize as anticipated but the un
precedented activity on the part of tin
serial arms of the Germans .and also
those of the allies gives promise that
onp of the more deadlv periods of tin
war is now close at hand. The recent
aerial attacks on the eastern shores
hnve dwindled and aside from some
damage inflicted in tlio town of Selby
near Yorkshire, by a German aeroplane
today, no damage was done. The
Hrltish and French aero divisions on
the continent are reported to have at
tacked man,\ towns in the vicinity of
tin Herman hattleline.

'l'lie following statement was made by
Judge Tucker before pronouncing sen
tence in the case of Ihe.l’nlted States
vs. Mike Hatzofl :
I’.ofore t lie court pronounces sen
| fence on this defendant, it will make
I the following statement concerning
I some matters connected with t lie case
for ilo consideration of the people of
Nome, and as a word of warning to
this defendant and his friends and com
panions.
This defendant was found guilty of
the crime of obtaining money by false
u-ctenscs. the punishment for which
s confinement in the penitentiary from
one to live years in tile discretion ot
this court.
Tlie evidence in the ease showed:
<t) That Hie defendant lost the
| money in a gambling den and game
sc,,n after it yvas taken by- him: and
(21 That in nil probability this de
fendant would not he on his way to the
•cnltentlary today but for the exis
tence of the said gambling den. of
which he was a frequenter.
These conclusions being reasonably
true, as disclosed by the evidence, it
(ppears to the Judge of tIlls court that
the hour has struck for the stamping
out of these gambling places.
The difficulty of suppressing gamb
ling may be roneceded. because it is
done In secret places and for the fur
ther reason that the gamblers are nl
yvays on the alert to escape and cover
up their tracks, hut its suppression may
easily be accomplished In tills common
ly by the cooperation of the Federal'
(ml municipal authorities aided by an I
ictive anil strong public sentiment1
against the vicious practice.
Gambling is not only- wrong because |
foriiidden by law—and no man may dis- '
obey the law with impunity—but it is
more or less harmful to all who en
gage in it; and it is simply ruinous to
the poor man or the man of limited
means or yyage earning capacity. The
rich, or well-to-do man plays the game
for sport and is rarely seriously worst
ed. but the poor man plays the game
from despair, or with the illusive hope
of replenishing his already dopleated
purse, and in the large majority of
i uses goes broke and is driven to erinifl
as in this unfortunate ease.
