THE "COUPON" PRESS

Extract from "THE WEEKLY

SCOTSMAN,” Dec. 1.

THE decision of the King's Bench

-Division in London that one of the football coupon competitions which came before it for judicial. pronouncement is illegal under the Ready-Money Football Betting Act is a sad blow to the "Coupon Press," which has to resort to such competitions, free insurance, and the like, to inflate circulation figures. These competitions have unquestionably a most vicious in- fluence. People buy up papers by the dozen in the fond hope that in one guess or another they may hit the correct results. The sales of papers are thereby inflated; but the chances of success to any individual are some millions to one, and wholesale buying of papers is sheer waste.
