Inspector John Barlow, Ottawa, howâ€" ever, saw as the best soluticn to all Ontario‘s "racket" problems, the apâ€" pointment of a chief over all the proâ€" vince‘s police, provincial and municipal. Discussion of slot machines followed an address by Chief Manion, who deâ€" plored what he described as the apathy, tolerance and in some cases active supâ€" port of members of some municipal councils with regard to the "growing vicious menace of the vending or slot machine racket." Motion to have the matter placed beâ€" fore the attorneyâ€"general was made by Chief Constable R. Manion, Eastview, and seconded by Chief Draper, Toronto. Branded as "mechanical thievery," the operation of slot machines was conâ€" demned by the asscciation in session at London, and decision made to seek legislation for the control or abolition of the devices.

"Meâ€" chanical thievery," "a menace to the youth," "an undesirable racket," were £Cme Of the terms used. The police chiefs wished to secure legislation to make all forms of the slot machine device illegal.

This was all the more serious, he said, when the council was elected for a twoâ€"year term. What ‘was the officer to do, follow out the instrucâ€" tions of the attorneyâ€"general and the police commission, or listen to the dicâ€" tates of the council, he questioned. Lisensing slot machines, the chief said, made the situation only worse, for the reascn the public believed the honâ€" est vending machine and the gambling slot machine were on a par and reâ€" smpectable. spectable.

While such a condition was serious encugh, there were in some municipaliâ€" ties, signs of graver signficance. The apparent willingness, through either intent or ignorance of mun:cipal counâ€" cil mem‘ers to pass byâ€"laws designed Ito further the use and play of the maâ€" chines. He cited, too, the case of a municipal council which had threatenâ€" ed to abolish its 18â€"yearâ€"old police comâ€" mission which oppased the operations of the machines, contrary to the wisnes |01 the council. 1 Beaty Vacuum Cleaner, newest model with complete attachments.
