IF PROHIBITION COMES.

WHAT IT MEANS TO NEW ZEALAND.

If Prohibition is carried in New Zealand it means, says the “Home Journal” that in four years, during which no further po’l can be taken. 1. All licenses of every description to sell liquor lapse. 2. All breweries must cease. 3. All wholesale importers of wines, spirits, or beers must cease. 4. It shall be unlawful for any person to import into New Zealand, or to manufacture, sell, or have in his possession for the purpose of sale, intoxicating liquor of any description. 5. Special exception is made under regulations for intoxicating liquor for medicinal, scientific, sacramental, or industrial purposes.

It may also be added that provision is made whereby no question regarding Prohibition shall be submitted to electors until National Prohibition has been in operation over four years.
