LICENSING TEST CASE
POSITION OF OLD ASHBURTON AREA QUESTION OF RESTORATION By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, this day. The Appeal Court is hearing the Scales v Young, S.M., and other members of the mid-Canterbury Licensing Committee. The town of Ashburton is now in this district, the old electorate, which went dry in 1903, having disappeared. It is a test case which also affects other licensing districts to settle whether the abolition of former electorates is similar to a vote for restoration by the electors. The argument was not finished yesterday.
