coud try by voting tor tbo ota on oct ssrd introduced the flpeabel of tubaftornoon mr simpson made an earnest appeal to the audience to support tbo ota the slogan of the canipaign was over the top again with ho objective of a world free from intoxicating bov orages since 10 years of a fid he has been fighting the liquor t raffles in many countries and provincei as it is the greatest enemy of tbe working men and a great moral issue is now before the people of this province we are asked to vote for the selling of liquor under government control in sealed pack ages or the continuance of the present ontario temperance act tbe faot that soma of tbe other provinces had voted for govero meet control was no argument it favor of ontario changing there were 700 municipalities dry in on tario under local option before the prohibition law was put into force after being carried by over 1100000 of a majority of the people of tbe province the opposition are asked to come to the platform and justify their position as re garde the sale of liquor they have no other motive but greed and appetite greed for proflti and tbe appetite of nieo for temp era exhilutration rather than thi welfare of the home and little obildren lcohol is the excretion of living organism and tbe only w to get ri ot tbe traffic is to kill it we are living iu an en lightened ago and supposed u know what is injurious to society we teach our children tbe evil effects of alcohol on the systei aud then the government want to go into nelliog this ovil to work destruction on the people liquor is a detriment to every department of tbe government alcohol los sens mans resistance to disease it attacks the cells of his brain he loses control of himself and can not suctain a strong physical body children do not ijave to start in the world with a handicap under prohibition when they tell you tourists go to quebeo for booeo tbay lie in 1928 statistics toll us 898000 american cars came into ontario and 670000 into quebec bank clearings have increased in toronto under prohibition and de creased in montreal under govern moot control tbe dollars of the working man to day are going for clothing and food instead of booze which returns you less value than any other commodity from a financial standpoint the govern ment would have to aell 60 million dollars worth of honrj to got 4 millioo for tho province you get nothing m return for what you spend in boose and your chances to pay off our provincial debt are a great deal better under probibi tton we cannot afford to have liquor book from the standpoint of safety as we moat have a sober people under modern trans porta tion the labor world realizes the evils of liquor and stand for pro hibition tbe experience or gov o rn men loon trofin other provinces is that it does not control there are lots of chances to improve the enforcement of ibe ota and if we got the right rnen in power it will be enforced it is not for ob to surrender because of the bootlegger but to get after him tho world is looking to ontario as an- example and mr simpson urged all to give the ota such overwhelming eoppqrt on october 28 rd that those opposed to the act will never want another vote we have been forced to fight hut the troth is mighty and sooner or later must prevail at the close of tbe addioss an appeal for funds for the cause of prohibition was made to
