Do your part by signing the Monster Petition. This is the way to help to bring into effect the recommendations of the National Efficiency Board. If Prohibition is brought into operation at once, a direct and indirect National saving of from £30,000,000 to £40,000,000 will be effected, a direct and indirect profit also will be made by the expenditure of this amount in legitimate productive trade channels. The moral wreckage brought about by drink will be averted, and in the words of the National Efficiency Board, "a sound investment" will be made which will "promote permanent National Efficiency." Remember, immediately the poll is taken and National Prohibition passed the drink traffic ceases at once. By payment of a sum not exceeding 4£ million pounds the Nation will save four and a half years trading which "The Trade" would enjoy under the present Statute. This course was recommended by the National Efficiency Board after hearing the evidence of over sixty witnesses. As a business proposition, apart from the greater moral issues, it will pay to eliminate the drink traffic. Every British subject—male or female—2l years of age and over may sign the Monster Petition even though not on the Parliamentary Roll. :e Monster Petition yourself them your friends to sign it!
