The Voice Of Temperance It is in the nature of things that most laws are enacted for restrictive purposes. If there is wrong in the eyes of the ethics of our civilization, there will be a law attempting to cope with it. And if there is a law there is restriction. One has only to con­ sider for a moment the restrict­ iveness of our laws concerning hunting or fishing or speeding, to .appreciate this fact. Law pro­ tects society by restricting ex­ cessiveness. If the actions of a segment of society are basically wrong, can there be any ques­ tion the law dealing with it, the better it will be for the good of all? Not all countries or pro- i vinces or communities have the .same laws. Which laws are the best? When wrong is evident,_the law that, is the more restrictive will be the better law.
