Three young men were killed in
a motor accident in Huron County.
They had been drinking. They
were minors. And people are say-
ing, "Away with the C.T,A,; if it
is repealed this will not happen
again,"
How utterly stupid can we be? It could not have been the fault
of the C.T.A. When there is avar-
ice or brutality we do not say,
"We'll scrap the Golden Rule." Let
us lay the blame where it ought
to be laid—upon greed, selfishness
and the drink habit.
When people wish to discredit a
good law they will take unfair ad-
vantage. The L.C.A. does not pre-
vent drinking in general or drink-
ing by minors. It does not prevent
accidents due to drinking drivers;
but nobody questions the validity
of the L.C.A.
Let us be sensible and above all
let us be fair. The C.T.A. is good
legislation. What it needs is more
support and less criticism, more
realism and less theorizing, more
boosts and less knocking.
