Norman Campbell Citizen Staff Writer Douglas Fisher, MP for Port Arthur, and by avocation a weekly columnist for a Toronto newspaper, thinks the Post Office looks rather silly in its anti-lottery campaign.

The order paper questions are: Is the Post Office continuing Its campaign to stamp out the use of the mails for pool and lottery purposes? What actions were taken toward this end in 1961? Does the Post Office know the two Toronto evening papers print the British Football Pool results and that one of them prints a tip sheet? Does the Post Office know whether this newspaper service is used by Canadians to play the pools through the mail? Has the Post Office any estimate of the amount of mail from Canada which gets through to Liverpool from Canadians playing the pools? 1925 CHRYSLER 4 door 8 edan Alone in its class A name too proud to share with any compact There is a place for compacts but not in the Chrysler line.
