Only 30 ,persons attended the meet- ing (the snow storm was felt to be responsible for this) and only one person spoke for the CTA. Doesn't Say Where Rev. kf. J. Snell, James St. United Church, Exeter, chal- lenged the contention of critics that police were powerless to control drinking among young people. "I feel they can be taken care of under the criminal code," he said, Rev. A. E. Holley, Grand Bend United Church, said he had been l.edto understand from police- men that the CTA did not sti- pulate where liquor could he consumed while the Ontario Li- quor Control Act limited con- sumption to one's residence. Pointing out that this was the police viewpoint, not his own, Rev. Holley said the CTA did not prevent drinking in parked cars (although the Highway Traffic Act made it illegal while driving) or at public places such as dance halls. "I was told about an instance in Huron County where young people were dancing with bottles in their hands. The police were called but they said they couldn't do anything about • it," . said the Grand Bend minister. Rev. Snell outlined two prin- cipal arguments which; he felt, indicated the CTA was good leg- islation. Ministers who move to Huron from other counties are amazed, he said, to find drink- ing so much less of a problem in Huron. "The difference is so marked they can hardly be- lieve it, they tell ane." The other point, he said, was contained in statistics of the al- cohol foundation which found "less alcoholism in Huron than in other areas." Rev. Do -nam agreed the latter point was an important coeside.r- ation. The provincial secretary, wlio was jl,ist appointed in March, confessed he knew little about the Canada Temperance Act but he understood "it apparently had its weaknesses." Worse Under LCA? T. Harry Hoffman, Dashwood, said an editorial from a :Sews - paper in the Manitoulin district, which recently voted out CTA, indicated drinking problems among teenagers had increased under LCA. Rev. Holley, again presenting the viewpoint of. police, said the CTA assumed there was no drinking of alcohol and, there- fore, no controls over drinking were. necessary. The LCA, on the other hand, attempted to control consumpton. ."They say • that those of us who think there is no drinking in Huron County are looking with blinkers on our eyes." Wellwood Gill, retiring presi- dent of the Huron Federation and chairman of the meeting, said he had been told that most of. the people who patronize the liquor outlets at Granit Bend come from Huron. "By the sound of things, everyone who comes to Grand Bend for their supplies comes from Huron, not Lamb - ton county." Accent On Youth Rev, Dorn in, the principal speaker, said the :Federation's program at the moment was ton- centrated on alcohol edi.cation among the students which has resulted in the growth of a "virile" organization called "Toe Alpha". Through this group, teen- agers were encouraged to dis- cuss solutions to the drinking problem among young people, "We do not try to preath to, ENJOY ' TRO4 PLE FREE HEAT ALL WINTER LONG WITH EL "-'46v#theiS FURNACE 0IL Art Clarke PHONE 00 EXETER ahem about alcohol," he said. "We tell them the facts—facts such as they would get from a laboratory ---and we let them shake their own decisions." Toe Alpha of "TA" interpreted as teen ager and total abstinence -has already had one success- ful provincial conference and is planning another this December. Rev. I)omm described. as "high- way robbers" the liquor interests who were "dealing in :a com- modity which presents us with one of our ma:lor social prob- lems." Ile said there were 80,000 alcoholics in Ontario and this figure was increasing by 4,000 a year. Canada now has 200,000 alcoholics. Statistics also revealed, he said, that the percentage of ah - stainers had inereasecl from 28 per cent to 45 per cent. "This means that those who drink are drinking more than they ever did before and that's where alco- holism stems from." A recent newspaper report re- vealed that liquor tax revenue to the provincial government has `iumpeci from $36,000.000 to $66,- 000,o00 during the past year. "In other words, we are spending far too plush an liquor.!, Condemn Advertisin0 Subtle liquor advertising, both in newspapers and on TV. was. criticized both by the speaker 'and by Rev. Holley. The :Grand 'Rend minister was particularly concerned with the television problem since, he said, almost 'every western and every play depicted consumption of alcohol. ,He felt this had. a great educa- j lional effeet i n -children. Rev. W. F. Rrotz, minister of the host .church, was elected. president of,the federation. Vice- presidents are Howard Pym, sElimville; Roy fiouDsii)s, liras. sets; harry iioffman, ashwood, land Don Aberhart, Goderich, I Treasurer is Fred MeClymont, Varna; secretary, Mrs, N. Tre- t wartha, Clinton; "Voice of Tem- perance" editor, ll. G. Manning, Clinton. Frank Howson, Wingham, was )named honorary president in the slate of officers presented by Elgin Me, .inley, .Zurich. A worship service was pre- sented, by young people of the Dashwood church led by Jack Gaiter. Participating were Linda Tieman, Joan Guenther, Shirley Rader, Mary Jane Hoffman and Stanley Heist. A men's group from the church sang. Howard Pyni led a discussion on alcohol education in Sunday schools. Teacher: "Can anyone give ole an example of poor eco- nomy?" Pupil: "I know .a mail who took such extra long steps to. save his ten dollar shoes that he split his twenty dollar pants." t *, Candidate: "l -low did you like my speech on the .agricultural problem?" Farther: "It wasn't bad, but a clay's rain would •do a heap more good,,, • Club Meets At Elimville On Thursday evening the 4-11 Club .members were guests at the Silver Star Flour Mill in St. Maras.
