New Hampshire Referendum Sparks Sweepstakes Battle
A citizens group named the Committee of One Hundred forms to oppose the New Hampshire sweepstakes plan. They plan a strong campaign ahead of the March 10 referendum while urging strict enforcement of federal and state laws on lottery promotion. The group names Richard C. Plumer and John Ballentine as coordinators and vows nonpartisan action to ensure responsible citizenship.
