' .The corni:ng Vote and Vote: r on Apitirt8 Ontario Temperance Act as a war- time measure was an unqualified success. On October 25„1919, the people of Ontario Toted by ?„n overwhelming majority in favor of the perenanCnt continuance, of the Ontario Tem:. perance Act, prohibiting the sale of intoxicating beverages. , The "Bootlegger" Must Go On December. 31, 1920, came the repeal of the Federal Order-in-Council—which was also a war -time i measure—prohibiting mportetion, manufacture and export of intoxicating beverages. Thus it became possible for individuals in prohibi- tion provinces to import licriors for consumption in the home; thus the "bootlegger" is able to offer the same for sale centrary to law, and thus the expressed will of the people in this province is being defeated. Importation Must Cease • Everything that applied in the last vote against the sale of intoxicating beverages within this province applies equally to the Use of tbern, and their Importa- tion for beverage purposes -should also be .prohibited. Hence arose necessity for farther legislation and • another Referendum. ..1.2111.1331.11092.3.1311=01131.01.14101.111Milletli6COP Shall the importation and the, bringing o/ intoxicating Liquors into the Prbij,ince.bePhillibifrct?
