THE LIQUOR BILL
Sir,—lt is very evident from "Citizen's" ciuestion in to-day's Domixiox that he does not want a Liquor Bill.' But does he think lie is the only pebble 011 the beach? If Mr. Massey ami Sir Joseph Ward have only time to pass a Liquor Bill, giving a referendum, and sign cheques, etc., they will have justified their existence, and departure, to take part in the great world Peace Conference. What a narrow-minded man your correspondent must be to class a Liquor Bill, etc., as so much rubbish, and in the next breath he harpn on the many after-war problems. Does he not know that the liquor question is the most important, most urgent, and the burning; questions of the day, especially so in~ regard to our returning soldiers ? Let the Government have sufficient backbone in it to put a Liquor Bill through the House, immediately, and allow the electors an early opportunity to decide the details. I feel certain that repatriation and demobilisation will go on apace.—l tm, etc., S.N-G.
