We feel that the present outiets i Bowmanville are sufficient for any moderate drinker, and any increase in liquor outlets would only invite inmderate drinking and its attendant evils. We know that unrestrained drinking seriously affects the morals of a community, and that drinking i public places is a constant temptation to our young people. The alarming increase of alcoholism in aur Province (80,000 alcoholics and increasing at the rate of 5,000 per year) should give cause for serious concern to ahl responsible citizens. In view of the foregoing reasons we call upon al people to rise above personal desires, and put the good of the community first. Sincerely yours, A. G. SCOTT H. A. TURNES G. E. LENO NORMAN COLES, Capt WK. K. HOUSLANDER, Ministers. Bowmanville, Ont.,-September 21, 1959 VOTERS 0F BOWMANVILLE: The chief object of education is to provide for a better citizenship.' In our High Schools al aur science and health text books stress the fact that alcohol hinders ta a greater or lesser extent the development of the brain and the body. It does flot seem reasonable to place alcohol in a more readily accessible place and then advise young people to stay away from it. Yours sincerely, L. W. DIPPELL Bowmanville High School Principal. FELLOW CITIZENS: On Sept. 30th we have the opportunity to vote on a very important matter which concerus every person residing in Bowmanville. To vote "'Yes" on either of these ballots would increase the number of liquor outlets i our town. This could only resuit i 1. Greater consumption of alcoholic beverages with ahi its attendant evils - more lawlessness, more drunk driving with resulting accidents, more prob- lem drinikers, more alcoholics. 2. Greater temptation to, ail of us, especially our young people. 3. More money spent on liquor -and less on the things that count. Once again I would remind my fellow merchants that business doue in liquor outlets is "cash" business. Our "charge" accounts would increase. Only the liquor interests - producers, wholesalers and retailers - would benefit. To Vote "No" on these two questions would mean: 1. A cleaner, better, more prosperous tow*n, growing because it will be an attractive place in which to live. Urge Sept, You to 3Oth DEAR FRIENDS IN BOWMANVILLE s We will have an opportunity on September 30th to vote agaiut any more liquor outlets i our town. We now have a Brewers' warehouse, and a liquor store voted in, which can supply the moderate drinkers with ail the beverage alcohol they require. We know that more liquor outlets will result iu excessive driukig, which will cause broken homes, time lost from work, less money for clothing aud education and ultimately some alcoholics. Auy small revenue which our town can make, itill be used up several times by the increased coat of keepig law and order. A cocktail lounge or a dining liquor lounge is an expensiv'e place in which to indulge for a working man or woman, but it would greatly increase the revenue of the liquor interests. We have a good town, let us keep it that way. Let as pass ou a better heritirge to our childrei1, by votig No on bath questions, September 3th. Yours truly, GORDON C. MARTIN, Carpenter and Retired Farmer. FELLOW VOTERS:s Alcoholism as a disease is rapidly increasing as als. are traffic accidents attributable to alcohoL We already have, or will have, two liquor outiets In Bowmanville and bath were obtained by only a narrow margin of votes. Why should we have auy more? When we vote let us think af the welfare of aur citizens as a whole and also of the surroundings in which aur children will live and not vote self ishly thinking only of aur own pleasure or financial gain through the sale of liquor. Sincerely yours, H. FERGUSON, MB., Physician. Dear Fellow Citizeus of Bowmauvllle: I have a few thoughts which 1 would like ta express regarding the forthcoming vote for a dining lounge licence and a liquor lounge licence. This vote is a completely ueedless vote and expense t. the taxjpayers of Bowmanville at this time, resulting from the court action taken by the Community Advancement Association in upsetting the vote on two questions only in which they last because of irregularities. It is. my firm belief that there was not one vote changed or altered in auy way by the irregularities. If ayone had cause ta complain that the results of the vote might have been different it was the Citizens' Committee which hast out on the liquor store by only 23 votes and flot the Corn- munity Advancement Association whlch was 210 and 302 votes short on the dining'lounge and liquor lounge licences, respect- ively. The whole affair seems to me to be like someone who has lost a game complaiuing about the refereeiug or umpiring which did not affect the result af the game. While I arn not a complete abstainer, 1 do strongly support the stand of the Citizens' Committee in opposing further iquor outhets in the Town. A beer warehause and liquor store are more than adequate outlets. The Citizens' Committee is not condemning alcoholic beverages or persans who eall them- selves maderate drinkers, but it is condemning the establish- ment of further outiets which can only lead ta or perhaps' foster the excessive use of alcoholic beverages and the tragic prablems that develop in the home, the traffic accidents that resuit from toa much drinking,. the encouragement of aur youth ta take up the habit, the thirty in each hundred alcoholics that are introduced ta alcoholic beverages and the hours of wark that are hast (not the industry that is said ta be attracted ta the Town by the existence af dining lounge and liquor lounge licences).
