OVKIU'OM INO (INKMPLOYMKNT Every effort is being made at tho present time to turn tho tide of unemployment and net men and youths back into regular work at real wages. Those who advocate prohibition overlook tho disastrous consequences that would follow if the iiconsed trade wero abolished. There aro at least 20,000 wage earners engaged in the licensed and allied trades who would lose thoir jobs. Tho claim that they would be employed in other industries is obviously untruo in view of the surplus of skilled workers in all trades already among tho unemployed. Increased hardship and increased taxation are two of the many .items in prohibition's bill of costs —two of the many reasons why every country that has had prohibition has thrown it out. On Polling Day remember that 20,000 jobs depend on you. Vote Continuance by striking out the two bottom lines.—Advt.
