THE PROHIBITION POLL. New Zealand must stand firm against anything that will tend towards reducing employment or towards closing up avenues of labour. Critical analysis of the quor traffic becomes tho imperative duty of every man and woman. Tho whole question narrows down to one definite ife'ue: .£5,000,000 is now wasted annually on liquor. When spent otherwise,' will it provide more employment than now, or less? In answering this important question, electors need not be guided by cither tho prohibitionists or the liquor folk. Tho Official Year Book shows that tho liquor business as an employer of labour is nowhere. The fiftyrivo breweries in N.Z. employ directly only 735 hands. Eighty-threo clothing factories provido employment for 3547 hands! Putting out fifty-five breweries on April 10 means more factories. That's what this Dominion wants—Total Prohibition on Thursday, April 10, is the best way to got them—Advt.
