Drys would have us believe that the system is a failure, that it has increased drunkenness and crime and corrupted government. Wets paint a dif- ferent picture in urging some similar plan for this country. Examination of official figures on consumption for last year is therefore interesting, and particularly so at this time, when legalization of four per cent. beer in this ccuntry is being advocated to produce revenue, stimulate business and bring the liquor affic under control Gross sales of liquor in Canada were $130,000,000 in 1930. The various governments got $100,000,000 of this in the form of taxes, leaving the per capita liquor bill at less than $3, or the equivalent of a bottle of Scotch. And this does not take into account the consumption by some five or six million Americans who visited the country as tourists. The Dominion Government last year got $56,- 000,000 as its share of taxation, or about twelve per cent. of its revenues. It imposes a tax of $9 a gallon on spirits, plus a four per oent. sales tax, and then the Provincial governments step in, charge up the c¢ of operation and take a handsome profit for their own treasuries The liquor habits of the people are changing. Canadians are drinking only about a third as much | spirits as in 1914, a little less beer and five times| as much wine. Per capita consumption of all bev-| erages is half a gallon less, however. Thus Canada has a controlled liquor traffic in- stead of the bootlegging and racketeering we havc, here. Canadians get good liquor instead of the poison supplied Americans. They are drinking less. | Revenues which here go into the pockets of | bootleggers, in Canada find their way into the public treasuries. If we get twelve per cent. of our revenues from liquor taxes the Federal Government alone would collect around half a billion a year and other millions would go to the States. | | | It is essential for American public officers to make certain that an emergency concession should | not be construed as an entering wedge for permanent | debt cancellation.—(Seatle Post-Intelligencer.) | Mr. Coolidge says everyone should take a vaca- tion.
