Controversy Over ANA Lottery Plans Sparks Public Outcry
A Manchester newspaper charges the Australian Natives Association with using charity for a hidden lottery. It notes the Metropolitan Committee controls the annual January event and accuses organizers of evading law, drawing thousands from the public, with charitable proceeds shrinking while ticket sellers reap commissions. The piece likens the gamble to a Tattersalls sweep and questions moral legitimacy, calling for scrutiny of the ANA and its Ascension Day arrangements.
