Arguments Userl

In sup ‘art of its apvplicatian the ‘ alion of Canada sub-

mils:

“Canadian railway companies are in the unique and perilous position that they have heel‘. operating un. der rigidly mniroilcd freight rates in the face of steadily mounting costs, nct merely since the adop- ticn qt price eOhlrol in 194i, but since the cut-break of war in the first two yous of wiar. indium-y generally took full advantage of its freedom to increase pricm. and when brie-e OCTIITLI became effect- ive in December 1941. industrial prices were frozen at slit-h higher levels. Subsequently, however, in. creases in the pfi cs of mlany prod- ducts have been thorized by the Wartime Prices and Trude Board.

"The decline in railway gross earnings tvhicn lornmenoed to be substantial in the latter part of 19-15 has progressively continued into 1946 and such decline has not nearly been matched bv a (zones- ponding decline in working ear. penses. The result has been an ex- ceedlnglv serio-ls decline in rail- w-ay net earnings." _

"CRIME OF PROIIIBITION”

centres. This movement is concern- ed with those “for whom alcohol- ilm has become a disease."

It ls worthy of not; that alco- holism is now being recognized us a disease. But why not treat it as other diseases are treated? Doc- tors do not concentrate so much on ways of curing smallpox, but they insist on vaccination as e means of prevention. Other injec- tiarls are given to prevent other diseases. Why rlot,_follow the same principle with alcohol, end have all drinkers treated with some in- jection that would take away ell desire for the poison? However. in this case prevention is very sl-mp- le-just total abstinence.

‘rile article referred to speaks about: "Individuals who have dis- covered their inability to use giro- hol in any form sensibly." That applies to everybody; nobody can use bevera e alcohol sensibly. The only sensib e thing la to have noth-

It is a sight for the gods to see the liquor peo- ie taking an interest in law-break- ng. Their anxiety to stop prohibi- tion because of the crime lt is likely to bring about is quite hu- moroue. Let them first take steps to sto the crime caused by liquor rind t en they would see clearly that no crime is caused by prohi- bitlon-lt la caused by the efforts of the liquor people to break the rohibltory laws and even then it

The intoxlcatlonlsts both in Ca- nada and the United Btates have heaped up fabulous profits during the war years and can be counted on to spend freely and recklessly to defeat the rising tide of tem- perance sentiment in both coun- tries. But to be forewarned is to be twice armed. The temperance forces and the Churches will not fall to note the nervousness of the intoxicetionists ea reflected in their own organ and can be counted on to take advantage of it by pushing their apposition to the liquor traf- fic with increasing vigour.

WASHINGTOIVB WORDS APPLICABLE TODAY

In the fell of the year i798 President George Washington had to fece the issue of a rebellion a- glslnet Federal law. This Whisky Rebellion la known in American history as the First Rebellion of any kind following the Revolu- tion War. Whisky distiller: and

"If the minority. and a smell one. too. is suffered to dictate to a majority, after measures have undergone the most solemn discus- si-ans by the re resentatives of the people, and the r will through this medium la enacted into a law, there can be no security for life. liber- ty, or property; nor. if the laws are not to govern, can man know how ta conduct hlrnse f with safety.

The liquor forces. ever since 1792, have been contemptible law breakers. They h-a-ve never re- spected the will o! the people and have sought to break down every restrictive law.
