cheered by numerous cordial messages ac-
companying' contributions toward cost of the
campaign for retention of the Canada Tem-
perance Act. They are taken as evidence of
widespread support and of a majority
against revocation on. November 30,
Belgrave Women's. Institute sends $25
through its treasurer, Mrs. J. C. Procter, who
writes: "We are standing behind every effort
being made to support the campaign. It is
the duty of every loyal citizen to get out and
vote."
Senator W. H. Golding, Seaforth, writes:
"I sincerely hope that the Act will be sus-
tained, and then amended, as suggested."
Another letter: "We are glad to help
in a small way with the worthwhile work you
are doing. We are greatly concerned with
this vote."
From Wingham: "Enclosed amount is
to help out the good work. You can rely on
us against drink."
Many more messages convey expressions
of support and wishes for success of the .
vote AGAINST REVOCATION.

Churches Condemn
Liquor 'Tyranny'
ANGLICAN:
"We have reached the point where intoxicants have
begun to tyrannize much of modern social life. Social
drinking habits have thus been approved in the minds of
maturing youth. . . . It is nothing less than a na-
tional calamity." — Most Rev. W. F. Barfoot, Former
Primate of All Canada. . r.
BAPTIST:
"We call upon our ministers to express uncompromis-
ing opposition to the liquor traffic in public and in private,
and to urge our people to practise total abstinence."—
Convention of Ontario and Quebec, 1959.
UNITED:
"Continued and uncompromising hostility to the
liquor trade." — Minutes of General Council.
ROMAN CATHOLIC:
"Everything warns us the consumption of alcoholic
drinks is excessive. . — And yet we go on as if it
were nothing. Our people are becoming alcoholized. Our
youth is being corrupted." — Most Rev. Georges Cabana,
Archbishop of Sherbrooke.
PRESBYTERIAN:
"In view of the unprecented consumption of alcoholic
beverages and the alarming increase in the number of
diseased alcoholics, and the rapid development of the most
i deplorable family and social conditions, must not Chris-
/ tian love compel every believer to bring his liberty and
responsibility to the feet of Jesus Christ?" — Board of
Evangelism and Social Action. ,

Huron Has Fewest
Liquor By-Products
LOWEST RATIO OF ALCOHOLICS
Beverage rooms would soon bring it up to the Ontario
average,
LESS JUVENILE DELINQUENCY
Chief cause is broken homes. Liquor wrecks homes.
FEWER CHILDREN UNDER C.A.S. CARE
Huron's percentage of the age group 0-19 is 0.77. This
compares with 0.91 for Perth, 1.51 in Oxford, 1.56 in Peel
and 2.43 in Manitoulin.
Welfare workers say 75 to 80 per cent
of Children's Aid cases comes from
homes affected by liquor.

Hoodlums 'Run Wild'
Under The L. C. A.
A number of Ontario towns suffered recently from
organized and liquor-inspired rowdyism. At Newmarket
last month, citizens in a petition to the Reeve, reported
that youths were swearing, smashing bottles and annoy-
ing women. Residents testified at a police commission
hearing that hoodlums were running wild in the town.
One resident said that on the main street, in the evenings,
"you don't walk, you run, or drive."
A gang Which, according to provincial police, holds
wild drinking bouts in Thedford and Forest, descended
on Arkona at Hallowe'en, started four fires in the street,
hurled eggs at residents and stoned three policemen. Citi-
zens -Mused to give evidence, fearing what was described
as "a small but vicious gang of hard-drinking hoodlums."
Outbreaks of this kind have been reported in the
newspapers from other centres, ALL UNDER THE
LIQUOR CONTROL ACT.
In Huron, under the Canada Temperance Act, we just
do not have this sort of thing.
On November 30th, vote Against
the Revocation of the C.T.A.
