Lipscomb Raps Gambling Under Quin Regime in San Antonio
Fire and Police Commissioner Louis W. Lipscomb told a rally at Hermann Sons Hall that organized gambling in San Antonio took in about 1.5 million dollars yearly under former Mayor C. K. Quin. He cited lotteries and slot machines, alleging racketeers bought protection and were never tried, while accusing Quin officials of bribery. Maverick, Hein, and others spoke on race, politics, and tax issues, warning against Quin’s potential victory and calling for unity to defeat Quin.
