B. Ohown, General Passenger Agent of the Canadian National Railways at Chi- cago, 111., upon -. his arrival at the headquarters of the National System in Montreal, yesterday. Mr. Chown went on to say that people in the United States seem to find a different brand of‘ courtesy on this side of. the border, at least on their return from c, trip through Canada they are enthusiastic as to the courtesy they receive on trains, in hotels and everywhere else. People \vho'plan to go to Europe chiefly desire to travel via the St. Iiaw. rence route. Tho Maritime Provinces also should receive a considerable influx of tourists this season from the United States. as there is a great deal f interest displayed there in Cans '.~i Eastem Holiday country.

As one who has homes part in the accent struggle for Prohibition and who has had opportunity for. knowledge of the efforts put forth to save it, it may not be inappropriate -also that I pay tribute to the mag- nificent silpyilrf, given t: the cause of Prohibition by the Disciples of Christ.

Prehi- biticn management and administra- iinn which i3 mt doing its best, but on the contrary, i5 knowingly v10- lating the law and permitting it ta be vlclatcd by others without punishment?" Bcfore attempting to suggest an answer to the question “What shall we d1) with Prohibition," may I as briefly as possible ref-er cg m9 13w and to present ixmditions? ‘ . The Prohibition Act proper has to do with the sale within the Prov- ince of lniuxicating liquor for m ~d- ‘lcinal purposes only, impart,“ from those rare occasions when liquor may be required for sacramental, scientific or other nuthorlzm non- bevc-rage use). The law has aid; to do with the prevention of the sale of liquors by the Govemmenit or by, any other person for beverage pur- poses, . . Certain Dominion laws are design- ed t: prevent the importation into this Province of liquprs for beverage use and to prevent the illegal manu- facture of liquor within the. Prov- , ince. If these laws were enforced no liqubr would be procurable with- in the Province except from the Pro- hibition Commission, _ and if the Commission itself sold- no liquor [UT beverages use, buotleggers, as well as smugglersiand mocnshlners, would be lion-existent. It is largely due to the extent to which these Dominion laws arc permitted; to be VIOIBkXI that an EXCB$iVC burden is cast upon the enforczment oil plzwincial legis- lation. | ,, , . Dominionfii-Inforcemont Lax It is well known but regrettably’; truie that a large measure oi‘ the responsibility for the present unsat- isfactory condition regarding the sale and use 12f liquor may be laid at ilu: door of tho Dominion enforce- ment officers. Flxtenaive violations, however, ‘of Dominion Laws, such as the Diahcrty Act. and Part IV _ci' thehCanada Tem- psrance Act, which prohibit lhoim- portntion of liquors into this Prov- ince, have taken place to the know- ledge of hlth Dominion and Provin- cial authorities without any pros-c cutioll having been brought by oi- ither in Haspect of such violations, ,,lt is only those who ivill not see, who will not dzny that conditions have recently been getting worse so iar as the enforcement of Dominion laws is concerned. Grave Charges of Maladniinistratioii Ccmingihen to Prohibition proper, Lhat is. inc enforczmcnt of thcPro- hibition Act itself, we find:- . i. The authority given by the Act to the Gizvcnmant to sell liquor for medicinal purposes only is being abused; the Government itself through its. Commission, under that pretext, being really engaged in the sail. of liquor for beverage use as well as for medicinal use. 2- Regulations in the Prohibitlnrl ~ - Act cnumcd for the purpggg of pm. venting ill:- illegal consumption 0i‘ liquor stld by the Government and for (ieicctllig such violatiisn of the Act are cidihcrately omitted and lg- noreci. , 3. The clear and expres; provis- lilB of the Act regarding the imme- diate erlfsrcsmsn: of convictions have not oli all - cxsiolis been observed. l‘. is reasonable to infer that inter- f; . ac has taken place. . l. Prosecutions have not been ill-- stltuted who: s. notorious violations of the law have ‘taken place. IlJfiWlbil-g standing authentic information com- municated to the propel: officers that tile law had been violated. 5. Flagrant and repealed viola- tions 2f 1h: Prohibition -.Act take place a-imzzt daily wiitlmilt any.pro- sscilticn being brought. under the Act. - ' 6. Persons who have offended against the provisions of the Prohi- bl-iisn Act, instead 0f being prose- cuicd under that Act, are plusccut- 5d under an obsolete civic bylaw, which in my opinion has been rc- pcaicd by subscquzlii. inconsistent r\"""‘“f“'~' leaisisiiom. A civic bylaw is exalted above the Prohibition Act, and the provisions of the Pliohibi- tlon Act tnus treated with contempt. 7. Information regarding the ad- ministration qf the Prohibition Ml? which is proper to be mad-s public is withheld, and Lu some cases d1" nied. . s. Wc also find an ignoring 0f 1h violation of plsznisss ntade regard- ing the administration of the Prohi- bfticn Act. Promises publicly mad: m". thus broken with impunity. 9.

Men and brethren, do not bi-iiml‘ the pulpit. You have in the pillillfi just what you dmiand. You would crucify men who stood up in the pulpit and spoke as some of them would like to speak.

But paltylsin which dmgcons, cnercas and iastra- tizss, and which penalizes individual thinking, criticism and independence is wholly it: be condemned.
