"The recent Social Credit. Party.” “dirty
tric ” scandal involving ‘phoney letters sent

to newspapers brings to mind a more general
question.

“Do you think ‘dirty .

'

tricks’ are an. acceptable

Mayor Jack Loucks
North Vancouver

No, 1 don’t think dirty
m political tricks “are ac-
‘ceptable. They may be a
fact of life -for some
"people, but that does not
make it acceptable or
: ethical. . .

Joe Moran .
North Vancouver

-. [think a situation like this
réflects many. of society's
attitudes. We live in a
“very competitive society -
|. Many people play to win.
m sometimes politics brings
. out the worst in people. I
‘wish | some politicians
‘would éxamine their
basic ethics.

Doug Downle
Vancouver

Dirty political tricks such
as we have seen recently
are unacceptable. I'm
sure tricks of this sort
have gone on before. It's
just that in this case, the
guilty were caught.

Gordon Fordyce
North Vancouver

I don't think such dirty
tricks are necessary, but
it does go on in politics. It
is good that such things
are made public — it's a
deterrent and an em-
barrassment.

HELP MAKE IT HAPPEN.

she was simply driving her

Scott disputes a statement

police car was a car she had ~

been racing. In court she
also denied a prosecution
that she
wanted to delay taking a

an annual cleaning and resealant job. And it means you'll never have
to wax your Car again.
