CORRESPONDENCE. TO ELIMINATE DRUNKENNESS. To the Editor. Sir,---Please allow mo to repeat a little, bit of history to show how drunkenness may be eliminated. A troopship called at Albany, W.A., quite recently, and the men were "ranted twelve hours' leave, but during all that time the hotel bars were strictly closed. The result waa twelve hours of real recreation and without drunkenness. Now, if it answers for twelve hours to observe strict prohibition of the intoxicating drink, why should it not be a good plan lat all times ? If it is good to close the bars when the troops are just visiting, ■why should it not be deemed proper to close them, say in Wellington, where the soldiers are all the time*; Mr McCarthy, S.M., evidently sees the harm that results from soldiers and others roaming the streets in a "more or less drunken condition." If the Albany plan were adopted we might expect the same results. Let us ask Mr McCarthy, S.M., what he thinks about it? See Daily
