WE ARE TOLD—THAT No-License Increases Drunkenness in face of the , fact that GISBORNE i DRINKS AS MUCH AS ANY THREE NO-LICENSE, ; ELECTORATES PUT TO- > GETHER. IQUOR gOPHISTRY. WE ARE TOLD—THAT No-License causes Increased Drunkenness in face of the Police Court records of every No-License District that CONVICTIONS FOR DRUNKENNESS HAVE DECREASED ENORMOUSLY SINCE THE OPEN BAR WAS VOTED OUT. WE ARE TOLD—THAT No-License causes Trade Depression, in face of the fact that the Mayor and leading Business men of the No-License towns of the South distinctly assert the contrary, and the Borough records confirm their statements. WE ARE TOLD—THAT the Gisborne Hotels employ 125 persons and pay £9291 in wages, as though these persons would be put out of employment if NoLicense were carried, in face of the fact that as NOLICENSE CLOSES THE BAR AND NOT THE HOTEL THESE PERSONS WOULD STILL BE REQUIRED, and Gisborne would then have much more to ’ spend than now in the employment of labor. f IT IS THE OLD QUESTION OF 'J'RADE MONOPOLY VERSUS gOCIAL AND WHICH IS TO WIN THE DAY?
