QUEENSLAND LICENSING BILL. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Brisbane, August 12. The amending Licensing Act, which has been tabled in the Assembly, provides for more drastic penalties for adulteration, and licensing fees are considerably increased. It also provides that barmaids shall be employed only between nine in the morning and six in the evening. The clauses controlling closing hours arc very stringent. If a door of a bar bo unlocked or there be a light in the bar during prohibited hours, it shall he deemed evidence of an offence. The only mention of local option is that such a vote shall not be taken before 1917.
