Probation officers have been ap- pointed wherever there is a Juvenile Court to work in conjunction with the "sourt, It is their duty to keep in touch with the young offender, and try by co-operation to enable him to work out his own salvation and be- come a good citizen, pt "Probation Work ~The probation work in connection with the Juvenile Court has been so satisfactory that the Government has extended this policy to include adults, If it is good to conserve the youth of the land, it is important as well to maintain intact the family cir- 'cle. Where the offender is the head of a family, provided the offense is not of the vicious or criminal type, he may be given a chance to make good on probation without conviction. This method has been so effective that in several places, notably Toron- to and Ottawa, there has been estab- lished Domestic Relations Courts, These are in principle really an ex- tension of the Juvenile Court system. An adult who has committed a minor sffense may now be rcleased on pro- pation in the same manner as a youth This method of treatment preserves the breadwinner for the family and the self-respect so aroused has made many a man a useful and law-abiding citizen, Except in Juvenile Court cases, the Magistrate or Judge had no power to release on probation without first convicting the offender who was chatged with a minor criminal offense A first offender had to be listed as a criminal under all circumstances. By legislation passed at the last session, Magistrates and Judges are given power to parole such a person with- out conviction where it is deemed advisable. In 'her words, the first offender if not a vicious crim is] given a second chance, This is pro= pably the most outstanding piece of social legislation Ontario has had for many years, or Humanitarian Work With, asview to the better co- ordination of a great many of the ac- tivities carried on by hospitals and the numerous other welfare agencies in the Province that have to do with humanitarian work, a survey has been instituted and a competent Com mission' authorized to gather data and meke suggestions for Hmplovemest in this br field of social betterment, Liquor Control Situation 10, The method so universally ap- proved by the people at the last elec~ tion for the control of th liquor traf- fic has been in operation only a little more than two years, and has given reasonable satisfaction to the vast majority of our citizens, There -may be localities here and there in which the privileges provi by the law are abused, but rigid en- forcement will gradually cure such conditions, Where there are wi points in the legislation, these can be and will: be strengthened. The Government is always glad to receive constructive suggestions and adopt them where practicable. It must be remembered that the hand- ling of this traffic cannot be worked out as a theory, but must be faced as a most difficult practical problem, The ever increasing public support will strengthen the law and improve the observance of it. We venture to sug- gest to those who are not yet satis- fied with the Liquor Control Act that the present law should have a fair trial. The encouragement through educational methods of self-control, temperance and sobriety is the only lasting solution of this problem. Financial Status 11, The finances of the Province have becn put on a sound basis and our credit on the world's markets niever stood higher than it does today The view of the Government is that Ontario is a long way from the peak of its possibilities in prosperity. To keep. pace with our rapid expansion our people are constantly demanding new and more extended public ser- vices, Large sums of money have to be invested in provide these advan- tages. The Government has seen to it that the money for enlarging oper- ations does not come from the pock- cts of the taxpayer, but is paid by the people who make usc of thesc various services. Present indications give assurance that even with the growing extension of the Provincial undertaking there will be a substantial increase in our surplus at the end of our fiscal year, and this notwithstanding the payment during the past three years of nearly $10,000,000 off the debt of the Pro- vince, Lower Auto License Fees At. the last session of the Legisla- ture the tax on gasoline used for mo- tive power on the roads of the Pro- vince was increased, It is now pro- posed to reduce the license fees on passenger motor cars by upward of $2,000,000 so that the annual charge hereafter will be as follows: Cars 25 ¥ depart from Oshawa Station.

Ontario Liberal Leader. MANIFESTO OF PROGRESSIVES (Continued from page 9) Commission' report for the year 1928 reveals the fact that nearly as much was spent for drink that year as the Government spent for all other purposes. It is expected that the 1929 report will show a much larger sale. The public will not soon forget the pre-election prom- ises of the Premier prior to the election of 1926. It was to pro- mote Temperance, Eliminate the Bootlegger, Increase Respect for Law, Improve Moral and Social Conditions and Save the Youth. You would have thought that after two and a half years of the working of the Law, the Premier would have spent some time in showing bow it hdd fulfilled all these prom- ises. We find the Attorney Gen- eral, the Hon. Mr. Price, coming to the rescue, as reported, in his speech at Southsmpton, on the 18th in which he said: 'Those who drank for three or four years or ten years under the Ontario Tem- perance Act cannot be expected to stop at once. They have formed a habit that will be hard to break. It will probably take several years to get back to the situation we de- sire." Note that last statement "take several years to get back to the situation we desire." The facts | are that conditions are getting worse. Statistical reports show that crime of all classes is on the Increase. Several years to get back? Several years spending $50,000,000 and more on drink. Does the At- torney General mean to tell the public that Ontario, by spending that sum in drink, are going to drink themselves into better con- ditions, financially, morally, social- ly or spiritually? Without going further into the workings of the Act, may I tell the electors of the Province where the © Progressives stand on the temperance question. "We stand for the prohibition of the manufacture, importation and sale of strong drink for beverage purposes. ence of the temperance question to the electors by plebiscite, entirely free from party politics. And we pledge ourselves to submit a pleh- iscite on the uestion within one year after oiir return to power. We lieve the vote of 1926 was not a fair test of the temperance senti- ment of the Province, as it was made a party question, nor do we admit that the present Liquor Act and its administration has been en- dorged by the people. We are pre- pared to present a bill in the Leg- islature to the effect that no brew- ery or distillery shall manufacture or sell alcoholic liquor in the Prov- ince and the submission of this We stand for the refer- | 'Chew and furnish body Sugar is one your mouth.
