TO SELL LIQUOR?
N.Z. TOURIST HOUSES. CATERING FOR VISITORS. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Wednesday. One of the first acts of the new South Island of New Zealand Travel Association will be to ask the Government to amend the licensing laws to enable the proprietors of tourist houses in the Dominion to obtain licenses to sell liquor. A remit to this effect approved by the Travel Association to-night stated that experience showed that catering for the tourist traffic in
New Zealand could not be successful ! unless guests could be supplied with ] refreshments such as were obtainable at : I similar establishments in other eoun- - j tries. : The discussion extended to advocacy . of the review of the whole. licensing . system. The chairman, Mr. W. K. Me Alpine, said: "I am not giving away ; any secrets when I say this matter is ■ on paper for consideration. I think if • you approached the Government to-day i it would see it in the proper light." 11 It was stated by others at the conl j ference that their request should be * only to sell liquor to 'loarders.
