Speaking for ourselves personally, a long experience has convinced our inmost eoul that the evils of the Drink Traffic within our Diocese, have gone far beyond the limits of toleration; and that th. worthy, God-fearing and law-abiding Sle in the business have aoout as much power to reform it as a dozen bottles of rose water have of sweetening the air of * soap-factory. We have long ago abandoned hone of such a reform of 'the Trade" from within,- and with our dyin* breath we would declare ,t our conscientious belief that there is a. real, solid hope m National Prohibition for the deep physical and moral and economic mischiefs of the licensed and unlicensed traffic in alcoholic liquors THE OPINION OF MAJOR-GENERAL SIR ANDREW RUSSEIL K.C.8., K.C.M.G., COMMANDER OF THE NEW 7EALAND EXPEDITIONARY FORCES 1915-19J9.
