"WASTE OF MONEY."
THIS YEAR'S ELECTION.
REFERENCE TO LICENSING POLL.
"Before November next the licensed trade expects to face a national option poll, with all its attendant turmoil and rancour," said Sir Alfred Bankart, in his address at the annual meeting of New Zealand Breweries, Ltd.
"It does seem to me that at a time like this, all citizens, of whatever shade of political opinion he or she may be, should lie engaged in the closest bonds of unity and amity, in an endeavour to- solve the many problems which confront us, instead of being torn apart by the bitterness and waste of time and money in contesting a general election, and taking a vote on a question r which, if it is successful in altering the present position, can have no other result than that of further inlreasing the burdens of ah already difficult position."
