parties divided on the issue.

Tihevnenv bill provides for the elimination of doctors’ prescrip- tions insofar as the general sale of liquor is concerned, but makes no change in the quantity of spir- its or beer which may be‘pur- chased at the present time under the six months’ script system. ft provides stiffer penalties for vio- lation of the act, bath on the part of the public and of employees o1 liquor stores in selling any appli- cant mcrr: than the amount leg- al-ly purchasable. These clauses, how- ever. were amended in committee to conform with the old Prohibi- tion Act, on motions of Messrs. R. R. Bell and D. L. Matlileson.

“GU11, Amendment

Storm centre of the debate lfl commit-tee was on Mrs MacKln- non! amendment to bring the new Temperance Act into effect before the holding of the Plebis- cite. Mr, George Saville contended that this would mean a breach 1i faith on the part of Liberal mem- bers Wlth their constituents, as it violated the implied promise the present Act would remain in force until an opportunity was given of voting on its restoration to its old

form; .

Hon. A. W. Matheson asked who had promised that. _ Mr. _Saviile: "We Liberals. 1t l5

in our platform."

Mr. Matheson: “I didn't 113W anything at all to do with lie” Mr. saville: "You think a Diaz- forrn is only somethlns 1° eti l" on?" (Laughter).

Mr. Macliinnon and Mr. H. H. Cox maintained it would 1W I good thing to give the new Tem- perance Aot a » trial 1'01‘ months before the Plebisclte WAS held. then the people would know what they were votlnk °n- The

-bil1 had been favorably commem- ed on by even the strongest Pro»

hlbition members. . Mr, saville said he would not have it on his conscience to do such a thing.

Mr. Cox.‘ "It won't hurt my conscience one bit. and my "P1" science is just as 800d B5 l"°“1'=-"_1 am for having this Act Dul- 5111’°‘-1e‘1 immediately under p Commission. and I think it is the best thing h‘

Opposition Leader

Hon- Dr. MadMlllan said the Conservative party had a plank in their platform, undertakinl to It» point a Commission as indicated in this bill. They also promised to consult the people About a Pleb- iscite. "The intention was that there would be no change in the Act until ‘the people had decided. clear of the appointment of a Oomnaisslm,” he said. “llsd we been in power there would have been no Question so to what would happen. The people‘ would be suited first, My hon. friends

fair way to deal with the matter. I think the people would resent any innovation before they had made a decision themselves."

Mr. Cox recalled the election platform of 1927, on which the Lib- erals were returned as a Prohi- bition party- The Act was kept in then, and it was “hypocrisy from start to finish." He believed the new bill was a far better temper- ance measure than the Prohibition Act had ever been.

Mr. Cullen expressed amazement at the "peculiar consciences“ of some of the members which “seemed to be enlarged on one side and somewhat shrunk on the other.” This bill already proposes to take away control from the Attorney General and vest the ad- ministration in a Commission. “That does not seem to hurt their conscience. It seems the hon- cur c-f the members of this House is tied up with the Temperance Federation for some reason or other.”

Hon. Mr. Hughes said the Plcb- iscite plank constituted a moral obligation to leave the A'ct un- changed until the 'vote had been taken-

Hon. Mr. Barbour was averse to the amendment. and thought it better to leave the present Prohi- bition Act in force until the plebiscite promise had been ful- filled. ,

In addition to penalty clauses which were amended on division to accord more nearly with the existing law. and on motion of Mr- Beil. a penalty clause au- thorizing the magistrate, in the case of conviction for first of- fenses, to lmlpose "imprisonment with hard labour for a term of not more than six montlis- with- out the option of a fine" was deleted. The amendment carried on division.

Another amendment, moved by Premier Jones, reduced the mini- mum fine for first offense from $300 to $200. . *

New Commission

The bill vests the administra- tion of the law in the hands of a

Commission which (as amended in committee) is to consist of three members to be appointed

by the Lieutenant-Governor-in- Council, who shall also designate one c-f the memlbérs of the Com- missign Lo be chairman. The lat- ter must devote "his whole time and nttentlpn to the business of the Commission." and follow "no other occupation whatsoever."

The cc-‘nmisslon is empowered

to establish vendors shops at Charlottetown and Summerslde, and suchbther places throughout the Province "as may be deemed advisable"; also in grant and issue licenses, fix prices, appoint 9111c. ials. etc. ' Two clnsscs of liquor permits are provided for, "individual" and “spacial permits." The latter. are applicable lo drugglsts, physicians and dentists, also ‘to clergyman in purchasing sacramental wine. Another form of "special per- mit" may be granted “when au- thorized by the regulations, en- titling the applicant to purchase liquor for the purpose named in the permit and in accordance with the terlns and provisions of the permit. and of this Act, and the regulations."

"Individual permits" in thepre- scribed form may be granted to persons of the full age of twenty- one, who are not disqualified un- der the Act, entitling thcm to purchase liquor for beverage or other purposes, but not exceeding one bottle of spirits or wine or one case of beer in any week. The fees payable for any permit shall be sisch as may be fixed from time a, time by tho Lieutenant Governor-in-Councii.

As amended in committee. ev- cry permit shall expire one year from date of issue.

The original provision in the bill, definim "liquor" as meaning any beverage containing" more than 2 1-2 par cent of proof spir- its, was amended on motion of M: Boll to read "alcohol by volume.‘

There was considerable criticism

of sec. 17 of the bill. which pro- vides that "Every permit _sbali be issued in the name of the appli- cant therefor, and-no permit shall be transferable, nor shall the holder of any permit allow any other person to use it."- After

Mr. Bracken charged that the Government was using its powers to depress prices rather than to support them.

G. J. Tustin (PC-Prince Ed- ward-Lennox) said the bill had not been a success last year be- cause none of the contracts had been filled.

The Minister told Mr. Arthur Ross (PC-Souris) that the open- ing of the border for general ship- ment of beef cattle was up to the Prices Board prhnarily.
