The Government of Ontario, or any other Government,
_may start out with the highest intentions to inaugurate some
system by which facilities wiil be afforded for use of liquor,
and yet yet by which we -will avoid the evils which inescapably
follow its use. This would be undertaking an impossibility.

'• ADVANCE OR RETREAT
A vote for continuance miens, in the light of the Prime
Minister's statement, not only the% maintaining of the Ontario
Temperance Act, but the, strengthening of . the provisions of
that Measure „and its thoroughgoing enforcement. '
It is not a question of standing still, jt is a question of
going forward or backwards.
it is not "Are we in favor of the Ontario -Temperance
-Act in its prese.it form," but "Are we in favor of therinciple
which it embodies and'da we want the measure which em
-bodies that principle 'strengthenecF and irnpxoved, made more
efficient, and given 'active and v'gorous enforcement'."
• A vote for Control means that this Province votes itself,
into the booze business, appoints the Government and its offi-
cials as selling agents .for the brewers and distillers and foreign
liquor interests. The Government then becomes purveyor -in- •
chief to the depraved appetites of citizens of the Province and
oEficia saanction' is given to the distribution to the citizens
of the Province of a narcotic racial poison, which has been the
curae and blight of ;the ages.
