The Part of the questiou which the committee wishes to elucidate is as follows; Light beer containing not more than two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent alcohol weight meaeure. The committee decleres thet 2.51 per cent alcohol weight measure equals 6.4(3, per cent proof spirits by volume, which is more than twice the alcoholic strength of the beer sold under the Ontario Temper- ance Act, and about live times as strong as the beer allowed by the British and United States Governments. "If you drink three small bottles (12 ounces) of the beer of the ballot, or take two drinks (1.1.3 ounce) or whiskey straight, yeti get from each the same amount of 'kick'. But the beer gives a worse kind of drunk," says the committee, Other paragraphs in the folders are as follows: 'This campaign for 'stronger' (really poorer) beer is conducted largely by the brewers, who seek to profit by the increas- ed consumption which will result from. supplying beer that will intoxicate. The alcohol of beer' and the alcohol of whiskey are identical. Whiskey -drinking is dang- erous, because of the alcohol poison Read R M. McKae'e advertisetnent on page 4 of this issue, Mr, Jos.

"The drink business is inherently, as deceitful as it is heartless. It is now en- gaged in the farce of pretending that the breWerk product is wholesome, nutritious and benefical and in order to give colour to its representations, it denounces the whiskey business with which the beer traffic is in full hannony and close part- nership. If whiskey is bad, the beer which creates the appetite that demands whis- key must be bad also."

Sherbondy, general manager of the Com - Pane', has just returned from a second trip in the States and the Eastern part of On - tan% where he has been purchasing the necessary machinery and equipment for the operation of the factory. As the heavier part of the machinery is not being manufactured in Canada at the present time, it had to be purchased in the States. The equipment 'that can be secured in Ontario, is beerg manufactured at present under the supervision of Mr, SherbondY. As the Blue prints for the heavy machines have arrived here, a large force of men wilt be engaged preparing cement found- ations and getting things in readiness to place the machines on their arrival here. Orders are being booked very rapidly for the Inner Tires and the business that the company has in view, will be sufficient te keep the factory in operation the bal- ance of this season and also next year. ti After the company has got the manufact- ure of Ineer Tires under way, it will at once get its plant in readiness to turn out automobile outer casings and other rib- ber goods. The intention is to manufacte ure outer casings that will be second to none on the market. They, will also make a casing to be used with "Aero" tires, which they will guarantee to give double the mileage that can be had with air filled tires, and sold for one third the cost of the outer casings now being manufactur- ed Subscriptions for stock are being re- ceived at the office daily. _es Perecmais •••,* •,••••", Mre.
