petition.
Councillor Humber mored that the
petition be sent to the special commit-

a potltkal move.
Mayor I.ee declared there were as
corny Liberals as Conservatives behind

Councillor Humber then offered the
objection that at present there was no
Government to whom the petition could

Mayor Lee retorted that the request
was to the Liquor Board, not to the
Government.
Councillor Sproul seconded the mo-

for South Huron
Opposed to Pettiest
A. M. Robertson was the first
spokesman for those opposed to the
petition. He said the town council
had no jurisdiction In the matter. The
county of Huron was under the Can-
ada Temperahre Act. and had been so
regnrded l,y the Government ever since
the passing of the Liquor Control Act.
When the Ontario Temperance Act
aas.aaased the C.T.A. was held in sun-
penalon ; but when the O.T.A. wan re-
pealed the Canada Temperance Act
automatically became effective again.
Neither the people of Goderich nor
those of Huron county had voted to
introduce a liquor store here, and the
gammen therefore should not concern
itself with the matter.
Mr. Robertwon then went on to argue
tbat, as the purchase of liquor was a
wasteful use of money, the community
would be better off financially without
a liquor store. (:edertch's financial po-
sition and the unemployment situation
here were better than them of towns
where there were llgnor stores. he con-
tended. With regard to baying out of
town, this did not originate, he said,
with the absence of a llgnor store, and
probably some of those who had signed
the petition were among the Worst of-
fenders in thin respect.
The moral aspect of the matter, how-
ever, should outweigh any other con-
alderetion. The freer sale of liquor
wonld eonduce to habtta of tndnlgem'e
among the young people, end would be
a detriment, rather than a help, to
the town, the speaker eontended.
Albert Wilkins pointed out that men
formerly addicted to_ liquor and who
had reformed wanted the liquor kept
away.
Rev. Geo. T. Watts said that a Ilgnbr
store would tend to destroy Ooderlcllt'a
geed reputation for quiet and orderll-
ness. -He spoke of meeting, while mo-
toring in Quebec, a tourist who had
spent a vacation in Goderich and who
said he was coming here again, be-
cause there wee no "boozing," no mw-
dylmn, and he was delighted with the
ineaney and orderliness of the town. A
liquor store wonld constitute a danger
to tbe boys and drla, said Mr. Watts.
