PROHIBITION CAMPAIGN.
AUCKLAND COMMITTEE'S PLEDGE. Resolution passed unanimously November 10, 1919: — " While opposed to the principle of State Control, in the event of Prohibition being carried at the next poll, we undertake not to oppose any amending legislation should a substantial body of public opinion favour an amendment making the issues Continued Prohibition, or some simple inexpensive form of State Control — bare majority to decideprovided there is a reasonable interval (say not less t,han three years) between the forthcoming poll and the poll which would be subsequently taken." W. H. HINTON. Secretary. Strike out the two top lines and give Prohibition a trial. Why pay £15,000,000 for State Control when New Zealand can get it for nothing in three years* time if the people so decide. — (Advt.)
