Dr. Moir's Views
IHensal'1, INav, 2, 1937.
Mr. Editor:
Judging from the response to my
Wet article in your paper regarding
the +liquor problem in Ontario, it will
not be out of place to write another.
I stated in my last that the confid-
ence of my thousand toter.. as well
as the knowledge of the backing of
thousands of other temperance peo-
ple in Huron acts as a challenge to
Its to advance to 'the spat where there
is the greatest need. Since the bever-
age room menace remains for an-
other four years, at least, provision
mint he made .to provide for the casu-
alties,. -the evertnereasing -numbers
of unfortunates. already helpless in
the toils of the traffic.
\ place for treatment of these is of
immediate and vital importance.
1. it must -he a place where the pa-
tient 'will be really rehabilitated, not
merely .gia•en a temporary nauseous
experience.
2 It must be a place where the cost
of treatment is not prohibitive.
.3, It must be a place free from the
stigma of the suggestion of an insti-
tution for the ins,ape or mentally,
weak.
\'1%e know of i , i ,
no tnsti�tulu n in On-
tario +here there are all these above
nten•tioncad" requisites present.,
Now boat` are we going to .get it?
Your first thought as was urine, after
the electibn, may be to asic the 'Pre-
mier to relegate a -part of the liquor
revenue millions for ,this purpose. -But
second thotigh•ts are (aitern Brest
thoughts and so perhaps in this case.
In the 'first place: Is it likely the
Premier.would entertain our 'proposi-
tion? . He n eight lightly say, "There
are plenty of local physicians to give
hint a shot, and that will easily tint
hien off the booze arid he'll know hot-
ter the next time," or he might ,say,
"There are several private institu-
tions to go to. and if .this fellow Inas
money .: enough_ to spend lavishly for
drink, he can easily enough spend
t('240.1)0. a month for treatment: or he
'night say, `(4\'e have already provided
'tad are providing mental hospital,
an =I if ,people are weak minded oat
fi h t„ get the habit, :•they're weal,
'gird 1 nt,go there."
But even if our Prentice should en-
tertain our idea and meet our request
ind give us a pittance from the liqu-
or revenue, would we not be placing
the Liquor Interest in a position so
they could ,say, "Well. we do admit
after all that there is a trilling 11 11
+vf weaklings, who have to be
considered and we are quite willing
to increase our liberal giving, iron;
our legal and respectable business to
help ameliorate this unfortunate com-
plication.- and so would we temper-
ance people me he really in league
with the beverage liquor traffic to
that .extent in the acceptance of their
donation.
Q1 course it w7\n'lrl not 'he any
worse than what we are doing right
now, accepting ae a prop a percentage
of the liquor license fee From the
'beverage room to meet our municipal
expenses, 'but this would he even
ire of an evident sop if we accepted
direct toll -from the traffie. The fade
is- that we are right now, as ,slat-i;lily
tender the control of a dictator a. are
the people of 'Germany or Italy and
that dictator is .the Ligator interest of
Ontario. -
Unless the Premier gives use much
,more of iavidence of his bra \Try in the
meantime, we will be going on. .just
