TWO VIEWS ON THE LIQUOR QUESTION
"THE PROFIT"—says Mr. Hepburn
"TE PEOPLE"—says Mr. Rowe
FOR three years the liquor problem has been out of control in Ontario. Mr. Hepburn, worried
by the rising tide of public indignation, now tacitly admits the fact. In acknowledgment of
the situation, he makes another typical last-minute, pre-election promise,
But Ontario voters are not going to be fooled again.
"Revenue First"— Hepburn
"Profit" has been Mr. Hepburn's liquor policy ever
since he took office. Here are his own words as quoted
in the Border Cities Star, Windsor, October 26, 1934: -
"Another thing that the Province requires is
revenue. I am informed that since Mr. Odette took
office, he has turned over to the Treasury$2,800,000.
Let these people point out some other source of
revenue. Do they want higher gasoline or cor-
poration tax? Do they want a Provincial Income
Tax? It is obvious that if we lose the revenue from
the Liquor Control Board, we will have to get it
elsewhere."
"People First" —Rowe
'Contrast this "liquor for profit" policy with Mr.
Rowe's clean-cut stand in the interest of the people.
Mr. Rowe has pledged himself: "I will return to
a policy of control by a responsible board, free
from political patronage. A survey will be made
by the new board of all licensed hotels. I promise
you that these mushroom dives which have sprung
up and flourished under Hepburn will be closed—
and stay closed."
The Conservative Party takes the position that public
revenue should not be gained at the expense of
decency.
11 To More Mushroom Dives
When Mr. Rowe is elected, beverage rooms will be
confined to standard hotels which respect the law and
give adequate service to the public.
Restaurants, taxi offices, rooming houses and hot dog
stands will not, by means of a few "jerry-built"
changes in construction, be able to qualify as standard
hotels,
Beverage rooms will not be forced on communities
where they are not wanted, Nor will such places flour-
ish in the shadow of the churches of the Province.
Non -Political Control
Under Conservative administration, by means of a
responsible non-political control body, beverage rooms
will be so regulated that they will cease to be a blot
on the social and moral life of Ontario.
A vote for the Conservative candidate is a vote for
this policy of control.
