Jlje only way to ensure that YQUR boy -.-or, the oilier boys-.will nor go under through drink,,is, to vote liquor p\i% on April 10. Sobriety is essential to success in an individual—it is equally essential for a NationIJew Zealand, ‘to keep pace in the commercial race, must preserve its manhood, arid maintain its efficiency. hold our own in the days ahead, waste must bo eliminated—production must be increased. Drink, the greatest waste—Che handicap to industry and the hindrance to production-must be banished. The suggestion to postpone voting for Prohibition until the General Election is the suggestion of the liquor trade - DON’T BE MISLED BY IT! 1 It is surely better to pay £4,500,000 and CLOSE THE BARS AT ONCE than to go on spending £5,000,000 (our annual drink bill) year after year. Moreover, it is almost impossible for National Prohibition to win at next General Election owing to, the THREE-ISSUE HANDICAP. The liquor trade knows .this .and seeks to side-track your vote bn April 10* ; At next? General 'thrde Issues .will be on the ballot-.,’papery National. Continuance, National Ownership and National Prohibition without Compensation. .Each elector can only vote for ONE issue. Thus if out of 10 electors, % vote for Prohibition, 3 for National Ownership, and only 2 for Continuance, the liquor trade; wins, though only 2 out of 10 voters desired it. Before Prohibition can win it must get more votes than the two other issues combined. is what the liquor trade asks electors to wait for!
