Certainly when I was young, considered a British passport, if not surety to Heaven at least safe armour in any land on earth. [ haye grown-up and I am a Can- adian and realize that thousands of my fellow-countrymen have no links with Great Britain and her past. We quite rightly resent people of Polish, Italian, or other European extraction bringing to our land their old world feuds and most of us are woefully ig- norant of their national heroes, flags and anthems.

But human nature being what it is we see very little hope of such a thing happening --certainly mot for a very long time. Experience shows that people who want to gamble are going to do so, no matter what steps are taken to stop them. Gambling cannot be eliminated. But that does not say that it cannot be controlled, as, to some extent, it is already. Here in Ontario government regulation of gambling activities is confined to the racetracks. As it i now, one may bet legally at the tracks, but nowhere else. There are a great number of peo- ple who wish to bet, but, for one reason or another, are unable to get to the racetracks. And so they gamble illegally. An exten- sion of government-controlled betting facilities to take care of these people might have the ef- fect of eliminating most of the illegal betting, with its often TOWNSHIP COUNCIL (Continued from Page 1) readings and passed.

Gov- ernment control of the liquor traffic may not have provided a complete solution to the liquor problem--indeed, it certainly did |: not--but it did reduce the worst evils inherent in that problem. The providing of a legal outlet for the gambling propensities of the public, of which all could avail themselves, if they so des- ired, might be expected, not un- reasonably, a large portion of existing abuses. At all events, it would be well worth trying. We must face the fact that many evils can't be complet- ely eliminated, they can only be reduced. This, after all is surely better than nothing. Meanwhile, we think it well that the more people who can be induced to voluntarily refrain from gamb- ling, the better.
