ASK YOURSELF.
DO YOU WANT THIS LAW? Can you think of any other law' in the whole history of legislation that has been so universally ridiculed, despised, and broken as the Prohibition law. Why is it? Do you know of any other law that lias brought about such an inflamed, acrimonious state of public mind as the Prohibition, law? Why is it?
Do you know of any other law for the attempted enforcement of which so much money has been appropriated, such huge: machinery created, and such fantastic proposals made (such as resorting to the army find navy) to try and enforce- it as the Prohibition law? Why is it?
Dor this same law the professional Prohibitionists are seeking the votes of New Zealand electors. They would convert this Dominion into a penal institution. They would import vice, crime and lawlessness —they would bring New Zealand law into contempt, and would bludgeon the people into submission. It is YOU and YOUR country they are trilling with. * —H (Published by Arrangement.) > —-
