Proving It Again

Neglect to do so might make the impossible become possible, allowing prohibition to be imposed on New Zealand by a small minority. Here is the number of anti-prohibi-tion votes on the occasion of the last five referendums: 19-2 0.15,39(5 i92s ihvns 1935 578,66(3 1938 043,120 This is convincing evidence that New Zealand refuses to indulge in a prohibition experiment.
