SEAFORTIL FRIDAY MARCH 28, 1-919.
THE LEGISLATURE
An unusual amendment to the mo-
tion to go into supply was moved by
Mr. 1. H. Dewart, Southwest Tor-
onto. He asked for an investigation
of the Board of License Coranaission-
ers during the last five years, or the
period of the Ontario Temperance
Act. He instanced a liquor -scandal
of the recent by-election in St. Ca-
tharines as an ill thing that might
bring good in its train. Three days
before the election a whiskey de-
tective, acting upon the instructions
of Chief License Inespector Ayearst.
had purchased from illegal whiskey
brokers in Toronto two and a half
tons of "Gooderham's Special," for
delivery in the village oi Homer 'in
the St. Catharines riding The whis-
key was paid for by a cheque which
Attorney -General Lucas said was
bogus, but which the whiskey brokers
deelared was duly honored by a bank.
The Whiskey, at all events, was deliv-
ered in an empty hotel. The Govern-
ment's detective took delivery of it in
the presence of four witnesses driven
to the place by the illicit traders for
reasons best known to themselves, and
which'Mr. Dewart assumed to be that
they might have independent testi-
mony against the purchaser of the
liquor. The following day the liquor
was seiz6c1 by a Governnent inspector,
after two cases of the stuff had been
Stolen from the hotel. The whiskey
broker 'were lightly fined, and boast-
ed that they had made a good: profit
after the fines were.- paid, Mr. Dew -
art asked why the liquor was sent into
the St. Catharines riding, and Mr.
Lucas did not tell him beyond suppos-
ing a ratber improbable reason at
variance with the facts, namely, that
the whiskey brokers and the whiskey
detective had at one time lived in Horn-
er, or had. grown in beauty side by
side in their school lays in that classic
ha inlet.
Mr. 1?evrart said the Homer case
serves but as an 411ustratiot of the
administration of the 0. T. A. He
cited eighteen cases in which light
fines had been imposed upon law
breakers by arra.ngement with the li-
cense inspector. He gave particulars
of one case, that of Nathan Slavin,
of Toronto, who had arranged with the
license inspector to be let off with a
fine of $400. But Police Magistrate
Denison declined to take instructions
from Mr. Ayearst as to how he should
dispose' of • Slavin. Instead of $400,
he fined Slavin $1,000, and gave him
six months in jail, Thereupon At-
torney -General Lucas was appealed to
and he had the fine reduced to $400
and the prison term cancelled. As
consolation for the breach of agree-
ment, Slavin immediately got •a job
in the license department.
Transactions of this kind are all
conducted by private detectives, who
fatten upon the Act. The Employ-
ers' Detective' Agency was mixed up
in the Horner case, and in five years
have drawn $44,800 from the Govern-
ment. The payments, according to
Mr. Dewart, were concealed in the
public. accounts. He intimated that
license inspector Ayearst draws per-
sonal profits from this agency, and
declared that private detectives had
been introduced to this, or some other
agency, by Ayearst and had shared
the profits they made out of the 0.
T. A. with. him.
Mr. Dewart charged many more
scandalous conditions, chief of which
is that the Ontario Temperance Act
appears to have been drafted with
the corrupt view of providing secret
machinery for. just such dealings as
the Horner and Slavin cases. When
annual payments amounting to more
than $200,000 are made without the
right of scrutiny being allowed, the
provincial auditor, upon the plea
that transactions with private de-
tectives must be kept private, Mr.
Dewart eontended that a corrupt in-
tention. must have existed from the
beginning. The record, he declared
shows that the intention in carried
out. He accused the Attorney -Gen-
eral of intimate knowledge of the
unexplained side of the Slavin case;
and the Attorney -General in reply
displayed the official docket and had
nothing MOM to say, except that he
is only the "rubber-stamp" of the
License Board. •
It is a long- and tangled skein. The
Government majority voted down
Dewart's motion for a committee
of the Rouse to investigate the Li-
cense department. When that had
been done'however, it was patent
that• matters could not be allowed to
stand VI that way, and Premier
Hearst came forward with the offer
of a Judicial icomlission to investi-
gate a speci4e elarge. This, course
