postponed from two weeks ago. There was a fair attendance to listen to thc reports of the directors. The presid. ent. Dr. I. J. Yeo, occupied the chair. and gave a clear and very thorough statement of matters in connection with the organization of the com- pany and the building of the arena, which the Doctor said is the finest in Eastern Canada. The total cost of the building and land was about $98,000. The Doctor considered that wonder- ful value had been obtained for the moneys as other rinks. not nearly as good, had cost considerably more. In every case, the lowest tender was ac- cepted. The contractors for the bulld- lng were McDougall and McAulay, for lighting, James Brown, heating James Currie, ice plant, Canadian Ice Co.. Toronto. A considerable amount over the estimated cost had to be expended in order to make the plant and equip- ment thoroughly up to date and first class in every respect. Receipts for the year were well up to expectat- ions, but would have been consider- ably more, had it been possible to complete the hockey schedule at Charlottetown. The Doctor said that there were upwards of 150 shale- holders, to all of whom he expressed his gratitude for the splendid support given him and other directors. He hoped that the shareholders would be satisfied with their allotment of the profits which amounted to over per cent on the capital. Not as much he 501d as they had hoped. but an excellent start. He considered that the coming year with such favorable factors as a. longer hockey season, more interest in skating, particularly ice sports. and more experience in management, which would give a bet- ter chance to reduce expenses, and the fact that Charlottetown would possess an outstanding hockey team would combine to make the coming year one that would be very gratify. ing financially. Possibilities of utiliz- ing the plant for other purposes were mentioned by the Doctor. Cold stor- ago might be a. means of improving the revenue. Suggestions were also made regarding utilization of the plant for making ice. The financial report giving all re- ceipts and expenditures in detail was submitted by the secretary Mr. H. S. Henderson, and was listened to with great interest. The discussion which took place regarding the report, was entered in- ‘to by Mr. J. R. Munn, Marshfield, Jonathan West, City. and others. On motion the reports were adopt- ed and the election of directors was proceeded with. The following were declared elect- ed: Dr. I. J. Yeo; J. P. Simmonds. H. H. Horne, W. V. Dunbar, Mayor T. W. 1... Prowse, A. C. Sinclair, Wm. McEachern, Mermaid, Col. D. A. Mc- Klnnon, H. S. Henderson, John Munn At a meeting of directors following the annual meeting the officers were elected as follows: Honorary President. Reginald Alt- iken; president, Dr. I. J. Yeo; Vice- iPrcsident, J. P. Simmonds; Secretary ‘Treasurer. H. S. Henderson.

e Government was compelled to amend which they did by reducing the premium upon drinking, but they deollned to wipe it out al- together. The fine was fixed at $200 to $400—and in that form it became law, no doubt to the com, blete satisfaction of all concerned. Note the result, however;

The maxlum fine for having 111111111’ in possession unlawfully ls $500. By the Premier's Act of 1928, the maxlurn fine for consuming 111Iuor in one's possession unlaw- 1'1l11y was $400. Then the of- fender by consuming tho llqugr became $100 better off by drinking, than he would be by not drinking! The premium on drink- ing was thus fixed at $100.

Is it any wonder- that conditions are going from bad to worse, when the very Act itself offers a. premium to the man who buys liquor unlaw- fully and then drinks m

ANOTHER ABSURDITY

One whb buys liquor for strictly medical use under a doctor's cer- tificate is permitted under" the Act to keep the liquor in his possesion until used as a medicine. But if the purchaser should use the liquor as a beverage he became, under the Act. liable t0 pay a fine of $500 (maximum).

The purchase 0f liquor from a. bootlegger who drank the liquor became. under Mr. Saunders’ legis- lation of 192B, liable to a. fine of only $400 (maximum).

Under this strange piece of legis- latlor; therefore. the consumer 0i’ liquor for beverage purposes be- came liable to a fine which was $100 smaller If he drank boot- leggers liquor than if he drank Government liquor.

The form of the question regard- ing PrOhlbltlon which the Prem- ier's mllch-talked-of Platform of 1927 had announced would be plac- ed upon the ballot was: "Are you in favor oi’ retaining the Prohlbi tlon Act?" An affirmative answer to that simple question was not sufficient for Mr. Saunders. ‘The solemn obligation of his political

platform was no restraint. The question was changed to make it read: “Are yoll

in favor of the Prohibition Act AS NOW THE LAW in this Province?"

The only reason for the change was the Pl-enlicrs desire that an. approval be given to his Prohibi- tion amendments of 1028 and _1929 in every ballot cast for Prohibition . . .By getting approval of what is "now the la\v."he hoped he might then, in the 121115110110 "1 a“ Agiomoy General, be able to soy that such votcrs were "accessories one; the fact" to his legislation.
