WORK FOR BISHOP
ARCHDEACON'S FLAN PUBLIC HOUSE TRUST CHAIRMANSHIP SUGGESTED [hy telegraph—own correspondent] ROTORIJA, Friday That the stnndard of some of the liquor supplied iu New Zealand was a scandal and that it was seldom, if over, that a prosecution resulted on an analyst's report, was stated by Archdeacon R. Hodgson, of Rotorua, when speaking of the efiect of liquor on the Maori people, at the inaugural conference of 1 lie Maori and I'akeha I'edeiation to-day. Archdeacon Hodgson said public houses must be made places to which any citizen could go. He did not think prohibition for the Maori or anyone else was the remedy. True temperance and self-control were needed. They must also strive to encourage and educate public opinion in the matter of stricter control of the liquor trade. In bis opinion, they should have a public house trust with a bishop as chairman.
