THE PROHIBITION POLL “I am in favour of Prohibition, but I am against paying a cent of compensation to Tlio Trade,” says many a modorato drinkor. Tons of thoiuands of N.Z. electors feel exactly the snmo way, yet havo determined to strike out the top lino next Thursday for a very good reason. They roaliso that compensation is only being paid so that, Prohibition can operato immediately instead of giving the trado four and a half years’ additional lifo provided under the old Act. Tho National Efficiency Board—a body of keen, shrowd business men, unbiassed by any considerations as regards tho moral aspect —after bearing tho sworn ovidenco of both Prohibition and liquor advocates, decidod that it was ossontial in tlio national interest that Prohibition should bo secured at oneo. The report is a startling indictment of tho liquor trade yet, dospito this fact, tho Board also recommended tho payment of compensation. Why? Because it roalisod that Piohibition should bo secured immediately. Seo to it that Now Zealand obtains this great reform next Thursday. Strike out tho top lino ! 3b
