THE CHAIRMAN: I only have one or two,

Mr. Pressman. The first is this. I take it the main

thrust of your presentation here this afternoon is that

the prohibition against a lottery is just not of

12

Constitutional proportion, that it doesn't belong in the

13

Constitution because that kind of a controversial issue,

14

which is one that really should be decided by the repre-

15

sentatives of the people, ought to be left to their

16

decision.

THE CHAIRMAN: And you are really not arguing

or vel non is a good idea or bad idea here today. We

21

know how you stand on it.
