THE LIQUOR QUESTION.
STATE CONTROL ISSUE. Speaking to a Press representative in Wellington, Mr. R. A. Armstrong, Dominion secretary of the New Zealand Moderate League, said that there appeared to be some confusion in the public mind as to the issues that were to be voted upon at the forthcoming licensing poll. There would be three issues as on the last occasion, and those electors who wished to record t-heir opinions against Prohibition, but who did not favor the existing condition of things, would again have the opportunity of voting for State Control. As the Prime Minister had stated that in the event of Prohibition being defeated at the coming poll, comprehensive licensing legislation would be brought down, the State Control issue gave the electors a particularly useful opportunity of indicating to the Government their desire for reform.
