HOW TO SAVE £22,500,000.
A careful estimate that rather understates the ease, shows that every year in New Zealand mil* lion pounds are wasted on intoxicating drink. If prohibition is not earned at the next poll, this means that in the three following years, at least £22,500,000 will be spent on drink. Voting prohibition will stop that, save that money for other purposes. The President of the National Association of Manufacturers in the U.S.A., writing on March 22nd, 1922, said: —“In the smaller cities and towns and in the country districts, thousands of homes have been built which would not have been built, and millions of women and children have been provided with food and clothes who have suffered for these necessities if there were no Prohibition Amendment.” Prohibition is just Common-sense.
