magistrates of halton tho milton champion in commenting on4he pro posal of the provincial commission to have district magistrates with salaries appointed says halton is wett served by police magistrates having four two of them try many highway cases ami it is possible that if the ones from them were paid to the govern meat they might be paid adequate salaries and give their wh61e attention to their duties this would hardly be possible in the cases of the other two but they are needed and should be retained even though pajd by fees the fees systenvof remuneration for services is obnoxious to all magistrates there is no enable reason why any police magistrate whoso ser vices are necessary should not receive an adequate salary without fees on of the other two magls tratcs referred to by the champion has imposed t on convictions made during the past year aggregat ing over 4000 and the legal fees collected in cqsts aauonnted to so mo 150 additional no doubt the i other

boforo many more years pass bender to caesar the things that are ceasarv morg and more tho citizens of canada are learn ing their impentlve duty to tho state iiv ordinary times in all times throughout history in fact taxes for the support of tho community an tno state have been due and have been collected canada is no exception but the great war aggravated tho condl tiona of the necessity for taxes to a very much larger ratio the costs incurred by our government in war wfx expenditures were necessarily very great tho war is er ever peace has come it is our imperative duty iow e o pay the costs some of us will be paying toward these war taxes as long as wo live as loyal cons dipas let us do our duty cheerfully pnd honestly the plan of income taxes is a wise and effective one it has taken two or three years to perfect it the government has gently felt its way in order to arrivo at effective methods during this period the people of this country have been permitted largely to present 4- statements of their incomes in their own way jow x definite methods have been prescrjbqd and to these s7every citizen of whatever vocation whose total net income from all sources reaches 000 and over

committee in toronto last week ho camo out boldly in favor of a bone dry ontario and mada it clear that ho will do nil n his power to sctfurd an afilrma tlvo vote on tho referendum on april 18 naturally it would bo improper for him as leader of tho provin cial government to takoa pubuc stand on the ques tion it having been referred to the people he advised that there be no apathy in tho coming campaign which carries suchckuul issues concluding ho said with the passing of tho referendum you will have the liquor trade where it will bo dafimtely possible to control it we have legislation on tho statute books which will come into effect with the passing of tho referendum that will make prohibition effective the manufacturer will be tip able to deliver liquor within the bounds of this province and we can deviso a system by which all liquor for other than beverage purposes will bo recognized wtyh a leader of mr drurys type at the head of the government the elect ore of ontario- will go toto the campaign forthe referendum with energy and confidence having the assurance tho when the victory comes on april 18 every effort will bo made by tho authorities to enstiro tho strictest enforcement of tho act ii whkrfteyselling a henjoua crime one of tho strongest indictments df the illicit liquor traffic ever heard on the door of the legislature of ontario was madolast friday by j a curne k c tho member for southeast toronto certain mem bers of the house were objecting to tbejuso of pro vincial detectives who are lor a manifest purpose given tho opprobrious ifamo of spotters when mr currle launched hfs tolling arraignment against tho men engaged in tho bootlegging liquor business for gam whfskeyrselllng he declared to bo just as honlous a crime as burglary theft murder arson without a doubt ho said he would employ spotters to convict tho illicit liquor vending establishments mr cur no dealt with the issue declaring i jiave had as much experience as any man and i buieve tho illicit sato of whiskey leads to murder leads to rob bery leads to arsqn leads to housqbreaking the man who breaks into my house and stoats my money deprives me of my money tho man who caters to mj appetite for strong drink gets my money injures me physically and injures me spiritually and if there is ono crime that is striking a cj ho peoplo of trie whole province of the whole of canada and undermining our rectitude our honesty our virtue our chastity it is tho illicit sale of whiskey i do not hesitate for a moment to say that if i had had tho great honor to be tlo attornqy general of this province i would spend every dollar that tho jrovinco owns but i would star it agood deal had been said about liberty since the inception of the o t a but he bejioved liberty to be liberty to a man to do that which ho bolieves to bo his duty ho oelieved the at torn oy general ought to have the liberty to do his duty as he saw it without having personal aspersions cast at him i believe he went on that tho use of intoxicating liquor as a beverage is a detrjhient believe it militates against tho physical welfare 1- believe it mitigates gainst the moptal welfare and i belieyo it militates agamst the souls welfare it is a drug that is detrimental to tho physical to the mental and to the spiritual welfare of the individual it must be seen to thathe ontario temporanoact is properly administered ifmore of our legislators would take such a stand as mr curry and do loss talking nhout liberty and apdaals from magistrates convictions and generally endoayoring jtq bring dls
