CANADA
LIQUOR RESTRICTION NOT FAVOURED. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright). OTTAWA, June 21. The House of Commons defeated two Bills submitted with the object of curbing liquor exportation. The first would make it unlawful to ship liquor to any foreign country until a consular certificate from that country had been granted, showing importation to be legal under its laws. The second Bill would make it unlawful to export liquor by any vessel previously in the liquor trade, unless the owners proved that the former cargo had reached the port of destination. The passage of these Bills would have considerably reduced exportation to the United States, which are legal so far as Canadian law is concerned.
