LOTTERIES ARE UNLAWFUL
If your church or civic organization is planning to
give away a turkey, an electric range, a radio or per
haps a bedroom or dining room suite to the holder of
the lucky number in a ctiaritable raffle — STOP,.
LOOK AND LISTEN.
For those turkey raffles, in fact, any kind of a
raffle is a lottery under the raling of John M.*Daniel,
lin
attorney general for South Carplma.
For years worthy organizations have sold ticketSi
some of which would entitle the holder to an automo
bile, a turkey or some other prize. In every case in
Camden the objective was to raise money for a charit
able purpose. The reason these enterprises were not
advertised in the Chronicle was because they would
be in conflict with the federal law and the paper issue
with them would be barred from the mail.
Always the argument made by the interested
parties has been: *‘But this is different, it’s for char
ity." It is this point that the Chronicle wants to em-
phasiae—chari^ or otherwsie, it’s a lottery and is
therefore illegal.
Attorney General Daniel points out that the su
preme court of Uie United States defines the word
lottery as "a scheme of raising money by selling
chancef to dhare in the distribution of prizes, more
specifically, a scheme for the distribution of prizes
by chance among persons purchasiiuf tickets, thd cor-
imbered
slips or lots representing
respondingly nui
prizes or nlanks."
He also points out that the state law reads as fol
lows : "No lottery shall ever be allowed, or be adver
tised by newspapers, or otherwise, or its tickets sold
in this state."
The South Carolina Federated Forces for Tem
perance and Law-Enforcement is back of the state
wide movement to eliminate the lottery menace. The
movement is i^onunendable if it serves to put a stop
to the racket that prevails at every carnival, a racket
that fleeces people who can ill-afford to play these
sucker games.
It is to be regretted that lotteries that are planned
for charitable purposes and by responsible groups
have to come under the state and federal ban. But it
would be futile to discriminate in the enforcement
of the law.
