TAVERNS IN THE TOWNS
Sir,-The . editorial in this -week's Listener had to be read twice to be believed-such a come-down from what we usually get from the pen of our editor. Threatened with broken homes, lonely evenings, drunken husbands coming home at all hours, streets rendered unsafe by the eviction of drunks and half-drunks at 10.0 p.m., ete., you will find the women of New Zealand very much up in arms and maybe stronger than you think, Why, in any ‘Case, an editorial on the subject? New Zealanders will never moderate their drinking; the only remedy is to give them, less time for indulging, certainly not more.
ON GUARD
(Nelson).
