THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1934 TEST CASE MAY DECIDE IF BEER CAN BE SOLD: HERE AUTHORITY REVIEWS CON- FUSED SITUATION While many Ontario plates this weep witnessed the open sale of beer by the glass for the first time in sev- enteen years, Huron County has not yet experienced the new law which is claimed by Provincial authorities to be a "real aid to temperance." It is not expected that beer will be sold in this county unopposed. !However, it is possible a move will be made shortly to find out just where 'vendors in Huron would stand.

Ottawa, Dear Sir:— You telephoned my office yest- erday inquiring how many "coun- ties in Ontario are still under the Canada ;Temperance Act. As I understand it, you further asked what effect recent legislation of the Ontario Legislature with . re- gard to the sale of beer and wine by the glass might have on the situation in any counties to which the Canada Temperance Act ap- plied, I find that the Canada Temper- more moisture; The yield of canning ance Act is in force in the Dis- Johnston and boys of Kenora are vie-) trict of Manitoulin, Ontario, and sting' with _lit'. and Mrs, -\tchie Peas will be les than normal, To - that the operation f theCanada Miller'mato plants are coating along nicely which must be determined by the Courts. I may state that a similar ques- tion arose in connection with the suspension of the Canada',Temper- ance'Act in certain counties of the Province of New.Brunswick and that the matter came before the Courts of that Province, in the case of Sheenhan v: Shaw, in the year 1927. This Department has . not yet had a copy of the Statute recent- ly passed by the Ontario Legisla- ture, but it would seem clear that, with the opinion of the Law Of- ficers of the Crown on file, the Department would be precluded from expressing any view as to the effect of the legislation upon the suspension of the operations of the Canada Temperance Act in the counties of Peel, Perth and Huron.

It i$ the opinion rof the department that livestock markets would show a much more even trend if the habit of loading up every Monday with thee week's supply w•ere'discontinned, Bet- ter distribution of deliveries to the etockyau•ds would seem to be the ae- saver, In the 'Province of Ontario, motor truck deliveries have reached a very heavy volume, At Toronto al- most half the ,supply of cattle, during the month of May, was received off truck,, and a large percentage arriv- ed at the market without pre -notice.
