But The Voice of Temperance for On- tario has been very vocal in a practical way. There has just come to hand a summary of the results of all the Local Option votes for the years 1947 -to 1952, inclusive, and it -makes good reading. This summary i lists all the different questions on which a vote was recorded, such as beverage rooms, cock-' tail lounges, brewers' stores, etc. In some cases it was only' one, in one case all eight pos.: sible questions were submitted. Incidently the vote on that oc- casion went solidly more than .75% dry on every question. The Ontario summary shows that 92 of the votes held went against liquor and 46 for liquor. This fact should be noted too: The Trade is choos- ing its ground for contests (much more carefully now- than formerly. Only where they think they have a good chance of winning do they join issue..
