Foundation On Gambling Abuse Organization

Nevada gambling interests, concerned about competition if California opens up to casinos, are financing a public relations campaign denouncing the social and economic costs of gambling. The Nevada interests have set up a new group called the Foundation on Gambling Abuse, headed by former California Highway Patrol Commissioner Maurice Hannigan, which describes itself as "a coalition against casino gambling in California."
