day transactions and which are called
legitimate business transactions, but which
in reality are nothing more than gambling
transactions since they are based upon the
unknown- the chance-th e hazards, and
profits or losses determined thereby.
As already pointed out, gam-
bling originated in the earliest
periods of world history. Humans
were and still are possessed with
that innate desire for gambling.
It is natural-it is human. It is
jllst as human as sex. It is the de-
sire to explore the unknown, and
no law can curb man's appetite
for it. It would be as useless to
. try to eradicate gambling as it
would be to curb man's desires
to eat; his desires for sex, or for
pleasure. It must be admitted
that he who is suppressed is thrice
emboldened to do that which he
is forbidden.
This was very eloquently demonstrated
during the prohibition era when more
illicit drinking and more violations of the
law took place than in any previous period
in the history of the country. During this
period of time, more persons were con·
verted to drunkenness and liquor addiction
than in any twenty· five years prior to this
time. When a person's desires are en·
joined, he resolves to do just the thing
which he is forbidden to do. In other
words, it is no more than human nature to
defy; if that were not so, there would be
no red·blooded humans, but only those who
would submit to the lords and dictators to
do their bidding.
It is this element of strong mindedness
which makes this a great country and our
people a great people-we have the will to
fight and are not prone to easily submit to
the rule by others. This is not true, how·

ever, where our own conscience tells us
that certain things are wrong; we heed our
conscience more, and if our conscience dic-
tates that certain things are wrong, we re-
frain from them, but no man made laws
contrary to human nature will bend or
deter us from our natural desires.
This is especially true when the ques-
tion of curbing man's natural desires for
sex is involved. Sex is instilled into man
for the purposes of propagation. It was
the will of the Maker, so that man could
multiply and propagate the earth. Only
an infinitesimal percentage of persons are
unfertile, and even in these, sex is the
natural desire, to say nothing of those who
are fertile. Today, man-made laws have
ordained that sex is not to be indulged in
except between certain persons who th e
law says may indulge, while those not in
that class are prohibited. Notwithstanding
this prohibition, sex has not lost its lure
and it would be just as impossible to re-
strict it to certain classes as it would be
to harness Mars. It is man's natural de-
sire-nature has endowed man with this
desire.
It is true that indiscriminate sexual re-
lations should be regulated, but not re-
stricted to th e point of abolishing it
altogether, or to confining it to a certain
specified class. Sexual relations controlled
by the governing body can and should be
regulated to a point where it will not affect
the general public, It can be segregated'
to certain districts and under certain con-
ditions. Prostitution dates back from the
times of King Solomon and the Pharoahs.
It flourished in the ancient days and be-
cause medical standards were not what
they are today, di'sease sometimes resulted.
However, with improved medical standards
today, this . can be so regulated that periodic
inspection can provide a maximum of
benefits. Our daughters and our sisters
would then not be molested by those who
are too weak to control their natural desire
for sex. Abortions would be eradicated-
there would be a minimum of illegitimate
children-rape would become unknown and
sterilization unnecessary.
This control over prostitution is very
forcibly exhibi ted in the State of Nevada
which maintains a . certain district where
houses of prostitution are permitted to be
operated away from the influences of
minors and adolescents. They are period·
ically inspected by State medical officers
and regulated so that they do not become

a menace to society. They are taxed and
such emoluments go to aid in their up·
keep.
This applies with equal emphasis to
gambling, As I have already stated, one of
man's natural desires is to gamble-to take
a chance. You cannot suppress his natural
desires any more than you can defy any
of th e other laws of nature. Regulation
of gambling such as is maintained by the
State of Nevada would not only insure
against surreptitious gambling, but would
also maintain it on a level without injury
to the person participating in it. Regulate
it and you can control it. License it
and you can supervise it. By these
methods only can you correct the abuse
that is now prevalent and at the same time
solve the problems of incorrigibility; idle-
ness, unproductiveness and crimes.
