Clinton News-Record, 1959-11-12, Page 4(News Release by the Huron
Citizens Legal et:111trOl
Committee)
In a little more than two weeks,
the electors of Huron will have
their first opportunity in 45 years
to express their opinion at the.
polls on the much debated CPA
issue.
Voting day is Monday, Novem-
ber 30, and the polls will be open
from. 8 a.m, till 6. p.m. There
are 146 polling subdivisions in the
county. Regulations governing the
vote will be similar to those in a
Federal by-election,
For the convenience of travel-
lers and railroaders, an advance
poll will be held in Goderich on
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
November 26, 27 and 28.
Huron and Perth, which is also
voting on the same issue Novern-
ber 30, are the only two counties
in Ontario which still remain un-
der the CTA. Most abandoned it
before the turn of the century
after a brief trial. The last two
counties to repeal the Act were
Manitoulin in 1949, and Peel in
1.951,
The Huron Citizens Legal Con-
trol Committee, headed by John
E. Huckins, Goderich councillor
and former mayor, look upon the
campaign as a crusade to estab-
Usti an enforcable liquor law in
Huron County. They contend that
the strong provisions of the On-
tario Liquor Control and Liquor
Licence Acts will enable the pos
lice to crack down on teen-age
drinking.. The CTA provides no
penalty for supplying liquor or
beer to minors, whereas under
Ontario law, which would apply
after the repeal of the CIA, any
person found guilty of this of-
fense incurs a jail term of from
one to three months,
If Huron rejects the CTA on
November 30, LCI30 stores and
brewers retail 'stores could be established in an towns of Huron
except Clinton. However, no
hotel, tavern or public house
licenses could go into operation
anywhere in the county unless a further vote were taken and pas.,
sed by three-fifths of the electors
of the individual municipality
concerned.
