Memebr &f the Ontario Weekly Newspaper Assoc, Subscription payable in acivance In Canada $1.50 In U.S.A. $2.50~ (Authorized- as Second Class mail, Post Office Deparnent, Ottawa) The End Does Not Justify The [Veans The United Church of Canada bas suýbmitted a brief to the Ontiaro Oommittee on Taxation in which it warns against the evils which legalized lotteries may bring to the' nation. "It woul be the height of folly for Canada, at a timie when the United States is alarmed at the peril to ber national îife caused by large-scale crime, to legalize gamb- ling whicb, would only invite criminal eliments into our country," the brief said. The brief further said a stable government and sound economic systenis are founded on such moral principles as lntegrlity, tr ust, justice and industry. National lotteries wouid undermine these vÙrtues. We are inclined to agree with the Church's brief in this uatter and do feel that, if the country must use- funds de- rived through lotteries to finance its varions aspects tffat Qomething of prîde- and responsibility has been lost by Can- adians ini generaL. Some factors are seeking imiplementation of lotterîes as a source of revenue to finance schools and ho9pitals. They somehow deplore taxiation as a means of support to thege institutions. AS Citizens of this nation everyone hms a moral Ob- ligation and a ýcivic duty to, see that necessary funds are available to operate s-chools and hospitals. Their services continue year in and year Out and as a Part of society it is muet continue year in and year out and as a part of socilety it is our dbligatfRrn to share in the responsibihity Of the8e ,aervices. It would be a shame to lower moral princâples to gain funds. for finiancing that whi0h is our- prime. obligation. Everyone would be overjoyed if taxation 'was elimin- ated but Tisi ve know wiUl neyer happen, Th1e present princile 0f tinxng on the abiiity toc pay lias stood in tii country for years and as yet no one has corne forth Witu' a better solution either at Municipal, Provincial or Federal level 0f governnýexit.

There is ittle doubt -that ,sOmething shoulci be done on the -MainStreet for at times the travel portion of the road is reduced to that of a single lane. This is not Only dangerous but also produces a condition that is net too ýnviing. The widening of the street couid solve the problemn and ft is possible that during the installation 0f water (somnetime this year) sucb a project- could be oarrned out with a mini- muni of inconvenience and at a. more favourable cost to the Village. Of course the' widening of thie street - iii reduce the area for sidexvalks and here serlous consideration sbould be given so that we do not end upii with) skimpy walks and provide an atmospbere of being bm din. There are otber'remedies that could be trled, one being the changing of parking frouni thie pr-esent di(agonlal parking- on botb sides 0f the street to one, side being pa raflel parking.
