Mr. King said Armistice Day should be a statutory holiday and employers should not be able to refuse a veteran time off to go to the cenotaph on that day. REFUSED TIME OFF "A disgusting situation occur- red here in Oshawa Nov. il when several veterans . were refused time off and one of them was to be the parade marshal. We certainly cannot expect a man to jeopardize his job by going on parade." THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, November 21, 1964 3 The morality and legality of gambling were debated: by Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck and Russell D. Humphreys, QC, in Oshawa Magistrate's Court here Friday. Mr. Humphreys, appearing for William Cook, who was convicted of keeping a betting house last week, said: "This type of offence doesn't stamp a man as a real crim- inal in the eyes of the gen- eral public." (The betting-house, the Court had ruled, was one in which off-track betting was taken on horse-races.) CHANGE PREDICTED He predicted that the laws in Canada and the United States which make "'bookmaking" il- legal would be changed in the next few years. "We will see," he continued, "that the general public will force governments to allow stakes, and off-track betting as it is practised in enlightened countries like England." The fact that betting was legal at tracks, but not two feet away from them, he labelled "ridiculous". HAVE OBLIGATIONS Mr. Affleck, in reply, said: "In our society, the democracy we are so privileged to live in, we have some. obligations. One of these is to pay taxes. ment investigated smoke gath- ering in two Oshawa apartment buildings and found the causes to be a_ blocked incinerator and new radiators. 11 routine ambulance calls were also an- Counsel Debate Gaming Legality "Bookmakers, by the very na« ture of their enterprise, do not pay these taxes." - He also referred to studies made in the United States, which, he said, showed that money from illegal gambling was paying for the more serious offences of narcotics and prosti- tution. "Gambling," he said, "is @ foothold. If it is tolerated, that foothold is established. There- fore we must chop off the ten- tacles of the great Leviathan, organized crime. Mr. Humphreys, then argued that: "If we were sensible, we could get rid of other crimes by licensing. and controlling gam- bling outlets."
