PREVALENCE AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE
LEGISLATION WANTED
THE CHINA MAIL,
The question of gambling among young people was discussed at the annual conference at Bath, of the National Association of Hend Teachers, and a resolution was put forward by Mr. T. H. Gunn, of Hull, deploring the increasing facilities for such gambling, and asking the Government to pass legislation making it illegal for bookmakers to accept bets from minors, either for themselves or others.

Another delegate asked what would happen if a King took his Sons, who were under 21, to Epsom, and they were not allowed to bet.
Mr. Gunn observed that they would not be allowed to bet if taken to some places on the Continent.
Eventually the motion was carried with the omission of the words "twenty-one" and the inclusion of a proposal that the suggested legis lation should be applied to "young
