“If compensation is paid to secure immediate National Prohibition, isn’t it going to increase taxation?” So ask some of those considering the National Efficiency Board’s proposals. The best answer to this reasonable query is given by the experience of other countries where National Prohibition is in operation. Take Canada as an instance. Here it was proved that a remarkable increase in national prosperity resulted from Prohibition. The money now spent in liquor will be circulated or saved, and together with the great reduction which will follow in the cost of the administration of prisons, police, justice, hospital and charitable aid hoards, asylums, inebriate homes, and other public institutions, will provide the necessary revenue. 17.
