have their great televISion de hate and this time it probably wt clude New Democratic arty leader Douglas as it should We have favored the thing from the start because it lets the party leaders to living rooms all across the country and gives them the time they need to say what they have to say on important issues confronting this nation Prowding it is in fact debate anda lively one it can accomplish more in short period than all the speeches that wdl be made by the leaders during the campaign The leaders themselves of course must put on show of wanting to debate even though they may have some reser vations about the thing Campaign chair man for all parties are understandably concerned that their man may not come across on the screen in way that Will benefit the party and win support They are caught in dilemma There may be more to lose from the debate than they care to risk There may also be much to gain Television as political campaign gad get is relatively new it makes some pol iticians nervous But the medium is here Hnggrisy Andy Gambling 0n numerous occasions in this column there have been editorials suggesting that lotteries are poor way to raise public funds However lotteries in many forms seem to be opular with wide segment of the popu ation Many will probably agree with the Ed monton Journal when it suggests that now the Canadian post office which cert tainly must know what they are is de livering entry forms for Mayor DrapEnus Montreal lottery to 510000 Canadian homes surely even the most bluenosed citizens must agree it is time to end the hypocrisy in the nations gambling laws In this land of $30000 cash bingos $50000 goldbrick raffles and $35000 paradisehome raffles at socalled agri cultural fairs periodic pennystock hinges lavishbetting on horses and countless millions of dollars exported to foreign lotteries surely it is time for even the most nervous of politicians to face up to reality the Journal continues Montreals particular lottery paying only per cent of revenues in prizes looks little too greedy to be verypop ular oncethe first blush of novelty has worn off The experience of the many countries in the world that conduct state iotteriessuggestions thatthe proportion should lose no time in passing the Crim should be at least Soaper cent mIhe Quebec government is going to have court test of Montreals lottery in manner so complicated that special to stay and it is not difficult to foresee the day when party leaders will make most of their major pronouncements in this way and campaignin in every com munity across Canada ivi be thing of the astfor them Television has already worlied an enormous change in this re gard it can only become more impor tant political arm as times goes on We do not suggest this is either god or bad thing There is still no ing quite like seeing peo la in the flesh par ticutarly positions ls simply that it seems inevitable that there will be less personal exposure in the future fac tor unfortunately that will work against those who through no fault of their own are unable to project favorable televi sion image it is to be hoped of course that in the end the image does not completely trans cend the man and all he may stand for This is one difficulty facing Prime Min ister Trudeau in his campaign Too many kisshappy girls tend to istort the image and obscure the man in this regard the adulationis for him both good and bad At the same time apposition Leader Robert Stanfield and Douglas prob ably both Wish they had at least piece of this kind of image action act of the Legislature will be required to accomplish it But Premier Johnson as sures the thousands of Canadians who have already sent $2 for multiples there of in voluntary tax payments to Mont realneed not worry about losing their chances of winning prizel The first monthly draw will take place May 27 Im finding it hard myse not to buy few tickets say ltfr Johnson While he was minister of justice Prime Minister Trudeau said he wanted to legalize lotteries under proper con trols Accordingly he prepared bill to take them out of the Criminal Code and toss them to provincial control The antilottery politicians such as Albertas Premier Manning who say that gambling is poor way for the state to raise money for social purposes are sim ply holding up very dead red herring course lotteries are no substitute for taxation and never could be But thats not the point at all They should be re garded an an innocent form of amuse ment which only government supervision could keep honest And if they raise few millions periodically and painlessly fir social purposes whats the harm in at Parliament when it meets again that Code amendment now prepared that would take good deal of the hypocrisy out of Canadas gambling laws OTHER EDITORS VIEWS SECRET TRIALS Buffalo Evening News One of the worst features of the so called Reardon Report which the Ameri can Bar Association
