It is stated that there are 16,270
fewer liquor dealers in the United
States than there were a year ago.
There were 2.15 gallons les e of in-
toxicants consumed in the United
States for every man,. woman and
child in 1915 than in 1914.
Dr. hown said e• "We in Canada,
annually spend as mech. on liquor rs
would pay the expenses of an army
of 200,000 men at the front for one
year, provided that they cert $515 a
man".
The Grand Jury in their presentmene before Mr. justice Middleton in
the est -lane a short time ago, isaid that
crime had been Jemmied by the early
closing of the• bars. and owing to the
large number of Teeple who had en-
listed,.
Almost the unanimous tes imony of
the towns that have had experience
with Local Option is that they are
better off witheut saloons. Trade is
brisker. payments are prompter, thcre
are fewer crimes and less poverty—
Toronto Mail and Empire.
According to a desereber, 'Prom
Berlin Germany. the German Govern-
ment will limit the production of
breweries to 45 per cent of the quern-
itn produced in peace trues. Lima-
ation to 60 per cent. of this peace
production has been in force almost
a year, 40 per cent, of this amount
being reserved for the soldiers in the
field.
Prof. S. A. Cudmore of the Econ-
omics Department of the University
of Toronto in. his address before th
Royal 'Canadian Inatitute said: "All
the 'bars should be 'ciceed during the
war arely from an economic stand-
point, leaving the moral issues out
or the question." He Gelid that $500,
000,000 should be raised by Caned')
yearly' during the war for war pur-
posesand advocated cicsin.g the bars
of a temporary measure for the hes
banding of money during the empire's

The Board of 'tirade o! the town of
Orinia recently passed a r Igelution en -
cloning the Federal Prohibition pro-
posal ate a war measure. In this resol-
ution the Board expressed the con-
viction lira one of the moet eefective
means of promoting economy and
thrift in 'Canada would be the pas-
sage by the Federal Parliament of
legislation forbidding the manufact-
ure and sale of intoxicateng lignor'e
during the wan bereving that such
le measure would increase the indite
env and industrial efficienoy.
