IF PROHIBITIONS CARRIED
WHO WILL PAY? The Moderate Party to protect their appetites state Prohibition increases taxation. Experience of other, countries shows that Prohibition reduces taxation, increases the standard of comfort, and by increasing production reduces permanently tHe cost of living. This has been proved by Canadian and American State experience, and was the. reason why America cheerfully sacrificed one hundred million of liquor revenue to ensure efficiency by prohibition. The people always pay all revenue. With liquor revenue they pay for inefficiency, diseaso and crime. With revenue from clean sources they get efficiency, education and uplift. Remember experience shows Prohibi-' tion reduces taxation. Vote out the trade to-morrow.—Advt.
