PUBLIC NOTICES. PUBLIC WARNING. LIQ U O R'S LA TES T ! DR. VALINTINE'S INDIGNANT REPUDIATION. "IMPUDENT USE OF All' NAME!" On learning of Liquor's latest subterfuge in displaying owl circulating a so-called "Proclamation," bearing his name, Dr. T. H. A. Vnlintino (Cnief JTealth Officer and Inspector-Gcneral uf Hospitals) telegraphed as follows:— "Firstly, I have to say that tho Proclamation did not emanate from myself, or from any officer of Public Health Department, nnd I never attached my official or private signature to any Proclamation in connection with Licensing movement. Secondly, I have never authorised any person or persons to use my name as Health Officer or as a private citizen in connection with any sitch statement, and mil taking immediate steps to prevent'this impudent use of my name_. You are at liberty to make anv uso ton like of this telegram. (Sgd.) YALIN'TINE, CHIEF HEALTH. OFFICER." This bogus "Proclamation" is.nrobably the most cold-blooded, heartless, and infamous fake ever perpetrated on a long-suffering public. The "Proclamation" deliberately sflts out to scare and inilame the pnblic •mind with tliroats of a return of the late and appalling Epidemic, p.nd implies that by voting Prohibition on April t( the people of New Zealand will leave themselves uuable to f;t'l adequate supplies of liquor. SO MUCH FOR THE FAKES! .NOW FOR TILE FACTS! FACT I.—Happily, m fai', there are no specific signs that the dreaded Epidemic will return. FACT 2.—Should, however, such become tljo case,-tile Health Department can be safely relied upon to give the necessary warning. It will uot be left to the profiteering Liquor monopolists to gratuitously perfo/'iu tin's public service. FACT 3.—SECTION 19, SUB-SECTION 2, OF THE LICENSING AMENDMENT ACT. 1918, STATES "Nothing in this Section shall extend or apply to the importation, manufacture, or sale, in accordance with Regulations made by tho Governor-Generai-in;Council in that behalf, of intoxicating liquor for medicinal, scientific, saeramcntal, or industrial purposes exclusively." Moreover, the purity of the alcohol stocked by the Health Department will be guaranteed. We will no longer have to put up with the doped and adulterated article. FACT 4.—THE MINISTER OF HEALTH has made the following statement :- "In the event of National .Prohibition being carried, the I'iiblic Health Department would have to carry stocks of alcohol for medicinal purposes. To get this medicine people would require certificates, and arrangements would be mads for Government doctors to gire these certificates free Of charge." Prohibition thus provides for tho USE of Alcohol, but prevents its ABUSE. But, of course, this is r.o good to Liquor interests. They Mill no longer be able to make huge profits out of the degradation of the people! And "there's the rub!" Thursday, April 10, will record the reply of the New Zealand public to the "tfftffic" which is i educed to such contemptible tactics. THE PUBLIC IS IURTHER WARNED that, since Liquor interests have at this early stage published such a malicious document, it' may be quito taken for granted that Ss Polling Day approaches similar statements will be published, and foisted ou the public in every possible way. The people of New Zealand should resolutely Tefuse to bo influenced by ANY liquor announcements, and should firmly resolve on the only elTective reulv— AND STRIKE OUT THE TOP LINE ON THURSDAY, APRIL 10.
