A Conodion Lottery Likely

The poll results are being used
to emphasize that the law against
lotteries, like the prohibition law
in the United States 30 years ago,
is unavoidable because it does not
have public support and respect.
1t is laxly enforced, as witness
innumerable hockey and football
pools, raffles, draws and sweeps
held in Canada each year. Mem
bers Of Parliament themselves
have an annual lottery-on the
date Parliament will end it's ses-
sion. And Canadians are estimated
to spend many millions anywhere
from $40 million to $50 million) a
year on Irish and English sweep
stakes.
Canadian law says you may be
put in jail for two years for par
ticipating in a lottery. Nobody
ever is. Newspapers publish stories
identifying the dozens of Cana
dians who win tens of thousands
of dollars each year in the Irish
and English sweeps. The govern
ment doesn't even collect tax on
the winnings.
The strongest pressure for gov
ernment-run lotteries comes from
the predominantly Roman Catho-
lie province of Quebec. Noting
this, a Socialist MP explained in
Parliament that the Catholic
church tends to take "a less
jaundiced view of minor vices"
Evening star., 1961-04-02

than the Protestant churches. He
said the main opposition to lot
teries comes from the Protestant
clergy and from newspaper editors
persons who have considerable
influence with politicians.
However. with the Quebec gov
ernment it is not so much a
moral issue as a fiscal one. The
Liberal administration elected
last year has found its financial
needs for carrying out its election
promises are greater than it's
treasury can meet. This difficulty
is compounded by the fact that
one of its election promises was
that it would not increase taxes.
If the federal government would
have Parliament pass a law to
legalize provincial lotteries, Que
bees financial troubles might
quickly be solved. Quebec could
then proceed to establish what
would probably be the only legal
lottery in the country, because
none of the other nine provinces
has declared in favor of lotteries,
and some have voiced strong OPP
position.
I'VE don't want any Nevadas in
Canada" said British Columbias S
attorney general, Robert Bonner.

the ad, salesman comes in
person to tell them that if they
will buy vending machines or dis
play racks, they can devote a
few hours week to the work of
servicing them and spend the rest
OF the time enjoying their profits.
They are lured into buying a
number of machines on the theory
that if one machine nets them $40
a week, 10 machines would give
them round $100.
The victim is promised an ex-
elusive territory with good loca-
tionS for his machines, delivery
within a week or so, machines of
the latest design and chance to
sell his route and receive more
than it cost.
Victims investing from 5000 to
$4,000 have run into these prob
lens: The machines didn't arrive
for months or not at all. If they
were furnished, they were of poor
quality. They paid 5000 for ma
chimes costing the swindlerS less
than $50. Only a token effort
was made to find locations and
the locations selected were in
poolrooms and barrooms in rough
neighborhoods where~the victims
didn't dare venture and no profits
were forthcoming. Exclusive"
territories were sold to two or
more victims in the same area,
they didn't make enough to pay
for the gas and oil used to drive
around the route and the COM
pany never made any effort to
sell routes for the victims.
A totally blind person was de-
frauded of $2,172.50. A partially
disabled veteran with wife and
three children invested $1,975 in
machines he never received. The
victims of one company lost more
than half a million dollars.
During the past two years, 36
persons have been convicted for
this type of fraud, 81 are under
indictment and 20 more cases
are pending before prosecutors.
Postal inspectors warn: Beware
of ventures where no experience
is required, large returns are
promised for little effort and a
substantial investment is needed
in vending machines.
The list Of other mail frauds is
as large as the imagination of the
swindlers.
Despite the 100 per cent increase
in the number of arrests since the
postal inspection service started it's
special program, the new chief
postal inspector has directed a
step-up in the program. His
aides acknowledge: We've only
scratched the surface"

BY GERALD WARING

e. OTTAWA. - The puritanical
moral tradition in Canada that
maintains Sunday as a dry and
funless day with bars, movies and
sports arenas closed everywhere
except in Quebec is giving ground
to a public demand for a national
, lottery.
And behind the lottery plan is
, the hope of an important new
Canadian export to the United
States: lottery tickets.
A bill to establish a national lot
terry is before Parliament, and
while chances of it's passage this
session appear slim, members Of
all three parties in the House Of
Commons have declared in favor
Of it. No one has yet spoken
against it.
Premier Jean LeSage of Quebec
has held informal talks with Fed
eral Justice Minister E. D. Fulton
with view to having Parliament
amend the criminal law to permit
provinces to operate lotteries. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Fulton. the matter
is still under review"
- A Montreal newspaper, the
French-language La PreSse, re-
ported straw poll results on pro-
posed lottery to be operated by
the Quebec provincial government:
In favor, 98,780; against. 149.

movie theater, he is apt to be
speculating about the alternatives
in a situation. CRUCIAL decisions
on the BIO and Nike-Zeus pro-
duction were made final as he
dressed for the Gridiron dinner.
An earlier disposition toward a
balanced White House life has
given way to an almost stark con-
centration on the problems and
people which concern him as
President.
He has managed thus far to
maintain the accessibility which
was his original aim and none of
his principal officials and aides
finds it difficult to see him. His
office seems at times as busy as
a newsstand in Grand Central
Station and his only defense
against unnecessary intrusions is
the caustic question: why did
you bring this to me?"
He has succeeded also thus far
in averting the emergence of
principal aide-a Sherman Adams,
