YES..[x.] No: {-=] We believe the answer from the citizenry should be a resounding “YES!""—we believe our liquor laws in B.C. are antiquated and poor—we believe liquor by the glass should be approved; and these are our reasons: OUR LIQUOR LAWS NEED TO BE MODERNIZED: THEY ENCOURAGE LAW-BREAKING by forcing the average cilizen who wishes a glass of wine or a cocktail or highball with dinner in a public place, to have them surreptitiously and in violation of the law. THEY TEND TO CORRUPT YOUTH, because they expose young people to the example of adults winking at or actually taking part in violating the law. THEY IMPOSE UNFAIRLY UPON PUBLIC OFFICIALS by requiring them to administer and enforce unpopular and unworkable laws. THEY ADVERSELY AFFECT TOURIST TRAVEL by denying visitors the hospitality offered by other Canadian provinces and by the neighboring states of Washington, Idaho, and Montana. THEY ARE DISCRIMINATORY because they (a) permit one class of persons—the members of private clubs—to purchase wines and liquor by the glass, but forbid others to de so; (b) similarly. they permit one very limited type of establishment— the private club—to sell wines and liquor by the gluss, bul forbid other eating establish- nents with which the clubs compete lo do so. LIQUOR BY THE GLASS SHOULD BE APPROVED: IT PROMOTES TEMPERANCE by mak- ing it unnecessary to buy a whole bottle in order to have one drink. IT REDUCES LAW-BREAKING by eliminating washroom drinking, reduces hotel-room drinking, and wipes out tbe bottle-under-the-table evil. IT MAKES POSSIBLE SERVING LIQUOR AND FOOD TOGETHER, conceded by everyone to be one of the most temperate uses of spirits. IT REMOVES THE PRINCIPAL SOURCE OF INCOME FOR THE BOOT- LEGGER and other shady characters in the illegal traffic in liquor. IT RAISES STILL FURTHER THE STANDARDS OF MEALS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC, by providing eating establishments witb an additional volume of business. FOR ALL OF THE ABOVE REASONS, IT WILL RESULT IN BETTER COM- MUNITIES in which to live uod to rear families. working out the details interest. in the public c omm We invite every citizen who is interested life’. after the. plebiscite, to study the i.” community improvément, to join us LR Le a Ee a rc aig in Chis effort Coward a better, saner system the legislature on, changes wuicarive com. for the sale of liquor.

This speed was determined by means of telephone communication timing them while flying from one lake to another. The same authority claims that the gander sets the pace, and that the speed varies from time to time. | day for Vancouver wedding of Mr. Julsrud’s daughter, School Children’s Warning Saves Threatened Bridge The-prompt action of school chil- dren in warning residents of a threatened log jam last Wednesday is credited with saving a bridge over Red Creek. The children were going home from school and were unable.to cross the bridge because of water that had been diverted from the creek by a large log. The youngsters went for help and a bulldozer was brought from the MeNeil ranch to clear the debris. High water has already caused Red Creek to flood its banks in spots and cars have been crossing the flooded areas in water up to and over the bumpers. There is still a great depth of snow above the 4500-foot level. MR. and MRS. STEVE ERICK- SON are home from their vacation. Sheldon Storey Vancouver. is also back from MR. and MRS.
