Temperance Forces
Meet At Goderich
Rev. W. A. Bremner of Seaforth
Re-elected Secretary Treas-
urer at Meeting on Friday
The Huron Tentpertutee Federation
in its annual convention Friday at
'MacKay Hall in Goderich, passed a
re'F•olution calling upon the govern-
ment al Ontario to order its Liquor
Board to cancel forthwith all illegal
lutheri(2's to se11 beer in this coun-
ty in ,11cotdance with the decision of
the Supreme Court of Ontario that
the Canada Temperutu'e Act is valid
in Huron County. The rr'solntion also
asked that the attorney -general of the
.p1'001310e at once take the necessary
etees to ,''c -urea vigorous and effect-
ive enforcement of the Canada Tent-
peranee Act fit this province,
The full text of the resolution re-
viewed the legislation from 1914 when
the Canada Temperance Act was
brought into force and never repeal-
ed: that despite snsps0nsi011 0f the act
from 1916 to 1827 ft remained [u
force to HOMO f the recent judgment
of the 0uprente Court of Ontario that
the a't was valid and within the
competes e of 1. he Donilto3on parlia-
ment: that 00,9e der'i,iot18 are bind-
ing on every judge, magistrate and
every- law officer in lite province and
whereas in 192-1 the Ontario Liquor
Board issued authorities to certain
persolis to sell beer and during these
years beet' bus been sold under these
authorities in violation of the law es-
tablished
s-ttblished by these court decisions;
and slum the decision of the Supreme
Coml. of Ontario, up to and including
the present day, beer has been and
is being sold in this county under
government authority in violationof
tate law,
The Federation in the resolution
also declared that the issuance and
continuance of authorities to sell beer
in this county by the Ontario Liquor
Control Board constitutes an autocra-
tie and intolerable defiance of law;
and that by permitting the board un-
der its authority to act in this way,
the government of the Province of
Ontario is abandoning one of the most
important functions of government.
The resolution was serried unani-
mously.
The election of officers resulted as
follows; President, W. G. Medd, 'Ex-
eter (re-elected); vice presidents,
Richard Lloyd, Wingham; Mrs. Geo.
Johnston, Goderich; secretary treas-
urer, Rev. W. A. Bremner, Sealortb;
chairman legislative committee. A.
T. Cooper, Clinton; finance. Frank
Houston, Witigham.
"11 has been announced that there
will be no prnvincial edection for the
duration of the war," said W. C.
Medd. fit )Exeter. In his presidential
address. "This ebotld make no differ-
ence. The temirerl)nee form's should
ho augment cid and ready for any
cmergeney. I say, with reluetanee,
they have not been ready,"
Dr. Joint Coburn, of Toronto. was
the guest speaker, bis subject being
"The Steins of ,he Canada Temper,
since Act in Ilium]," He reviewed the
v uiott'` steps taken in temperance
legislation sine,. 1911 to thei relent
decision math. by the Suprrim' 1'entr1.
of Ontario including th( test eusc•s at
llrnnlpton noel 11:,,itnnlin island. li"
quoted Hot, lir. L;'pninle, ministee e'1'
Weave, as saying that if the Canada
Temperance Act is attaticed, the Do-
minion government will he there to
defend it. and declared than the amt
was the law fn Huron County.
"\\'e are senting mon 01 fight
Hiller. gift are two going" to lose a
tight at home"" }t'• asked. "There is
another phase of the temperance
valise 'nnlronting us, that of the sit-
uation recanting war ronditions.
:Military and political authorities are
stressing we 811001 learn from the
experience trained where we left off
and carry on. The groat wan' taught
many lessons regarding the liquor
traffic." It tools the dominion govern-
metlnearly four years to wake 01),
the speaker continued. and in the
early clays of 1915 when there was
tremendous feat' in the desperate sit-
-nation, all the resources of the niton
were mobilized for 0110 purpose and
the government priced the law of
complete prahihitlen.
"The Claim is 1311,310 that we put
one over the soldiers. That is not
true for a ph,bisehe was promised
and in 1910, after three years, the
people voted on the law." The sale of
liquor is inimical to the welfare of
the people. in the interest of our
country and cause surely it is unfair
to have an .enemy like the liquor
trade within our camp. Judging by
the experiences of the last war.
every part of the liquor traffic will be
an ally of Adolph Hitler.
Any citizen or group can under-
take the enforcement of the C.T.A.,
Dr. Coburn said, The county council
may appoint an officer to prosecute
in the county, and all tines collected
would go into the coffers of the
county council to pay his salary.
Th.. convention placed itself on re-
cord as desiring and expecting that.
the Dominion government place such
restrictive legislation on the statute
hooks during the duration of the war
as it is found necessary for the
achievement of victory.
