New Zealand’s Prohibition Law It is already made, and its conditions have passed both Houses. Some people still imagine that if Prohibition is voted “in” by the Referendum a law will then be drafted to enforce it. That is not so. The law was drafted and approved by Parliament in 1918, and it automatical!}' comes into effect upon a poll in favour of Prohibition. It Provides that: You may not make home-brewed beer or home-made wine for your own consumption. You may not manufacture, import, or sell liquor, nor have it in your possession for sale. Any Justice of the Peace may issue a warrant for the search of your house by police at any time of the day or night. Fines for breaches of law: £ 100 first offence, Three months second offence (no option of fine). If a company commits breach. £2OO and £l,OOO respectively. No compensation to any person deprived of a living by Prohibition. No compensation to anyone whose trade, business or property is injured or depreciated by Prohibition. Prohibition, if carried next poll, would come into force June 30, 1923. Once Prohibition is carried, there can be no further .vote upon the question—it is settled for good and all. There’s no “trial” about it. It does not Provide for Prohibition of the wealthy. The rich man may stock his cellar for a lifetime before the law comes into operation, whereas the worker will be deprived of his modest drink. It violates the sanctity cf the Home—That must be so, for without right of search the enforcement of Prohibition would be impossible. It is a “ Class ” Law ! A Degrading Law !
