This was flot sufficient, however, since under the'law, a 60% vote is necessary before the Liquor Control Board of Ontario will consider licensing any premises. In the hotel businless, it appears almost like an accepted rule, that a liquor licence is virtually necessary in order to operate profit- ably - flot necessarily for the amount of liquor sales, so much as the convention and tourist trade which it attracts. From our personal experience, Bowmanviile is no exception to this rule. Following the minority negative vote last November, we seriously considered closing down The Flying Dutchman for the winter season, because of the regular operating deficits which we must face eachyear during these months. The decision was to remain open, conditioned on two points: (1) Possible loss of regular trade for the spring, summer and fl seasons, and (2) the laying-of f and disruption of staff. We earnestly ask the voters of Bowmanville to support the 'Yes" vote next Wednesday at the polls. Our reasons are straight- forward. Here's what a ""Yes"" vote can do for Bowmanville and for The. Dutchman: (I) Assuièi a 12-moth-ar-yëea-r stable business; (2) Our payroll now $60,000. can be doubled with cc licence- 92% of which payroll goes to BowmcuL. ville resldezitu; (3) The Dutchmnan buys ln exce-ssof $50,000 a year là fruit, vegetables, dairy producis, supplies, etc., ln the Bowmanville area. We estimate that thls could be Increased by 50% with additionad business resulting f rom a licence; (4) The. Dutchman pays ln excess of $4,000 a year hi municipal taxes - whic}i amount would likely b. increased ln an extensioni of our present buildings and facilities, to accommodate an anticipated ilicreas. in business resulting from a licence; (5) Conventions: Over the 'past eighteen months, thousands of dollars of convention business had ta b. tumned down because the Dutchman was unable ta serve liquor al is the custom in other convention hotels. An approved licence cannot but help the development of this essential hotel trade; (6) Building Program: In the event of a successful ""Yes"" vote, the. Flying Dutchman plans on a size- able extension to present buildings and f acilities. mhis, ln turn, means more work for Bowmanvill.. and more purchasing of supplies and equipment within the community. VOTERS Of BOWMANVILLE VOTERS 0F BOWMANVILLE: We respectfully solicit your wholeheurted support for a "Yes" vote ut the poils next Wednesday, September 3Oth.e You may rest assured, that if an affirmative vote gives us the privilege of applying for a licence, and we are so granted, we will continue to work with Bowmanville in furnishing our visitors and guests with the best of f ood and accommodation, as we have been striving to do over these past couple of years. ]Respectfully yours, Walter E.
