it to be spentnameiy with due economy and with pra priety To this end this com mittee was substantially remod elled by Prime Minister Diefen baker At the opening of his admin istration Mr Dlefenbaker de plored that hitherto tlus com mittee had been unable to ex aminesny mutter except those dashed by the majority in the House In other words any ex penditures possibly associated with lack of economy and with improprietysuch as perhaps graft or patronagecould be and were swept under the carpet by the preponderant voting weight of the government majority iiils unsatisfactory state of al fairs was ended by Mr Dlefen baker who thus voluntarily dis pensed with tbecluak oi con cealment which previous govern ments had held ready to protect themselves am now asking that this committee be made

Liberal Macnsughlon en sured that his committee fully used the teeth given it by Prime Minister Dlefenbaker He hit at extravagance in the spending by our national defence department he expressed criti clam of the freewheeling aciiv ities of Crown corporations he pointed an accusing finger at specified malpractices associ ated with our sadly depleted un employment inburance nod and he waved red flag of warning over the huge and costly variety of government subsidies There is much meat for digestion and the means to future taxsaviuzsf in ihh praiseworthy committees work For the public will by us ture and temperament drink booze so will it also gamble And it is an Impossible task in try and curb the huge volume of undercover betting that now goes on One of the main deterrents of course is that the public really isnt against gambling as such Cnisadsrs are however And no matter how practical change might be ihey make it difficult to bring about if one really faces facts fiaily of course the really logical on war would be to have govern ment betting offices The government takes tax from racing new so why not get into the betting business itself Too Tali would do away with the root of the
