(D) To Rob the Workers of £1,750,000 in Wages ? (E) To Cause Revolution in our Social, Commercial and Industrial Life ? NOW! WHEN THE EMPIRE IS AT WAR? NOW! When it io hard for any Man who Loses his job to find another ? NOW! When the Country Needs every Penny of Income to Pay for its own Defence and to Help England ? NOW ! When every Man and Woman here are giving every penny that can be saved or spared to Save the Empire aud.Defend the Flag ? IS THIS A TIME To destroy the Country's wealth and sacrifice the revenue for the sake of a Wild Experiment like National Prohibition ? Is this Reason ? Is this Patriotism ? Is this Public Spirit? Is this Loyalty? MEN AND WOMEN give your answer AT THE POLLS WHERE WILL IT END ?
