C., February 4.— Draught and bottled beer with as high as 4% per cent alcoholic con- tent and not lower than 3% 1is to be sold in British Columbia’s new beer halls, Attorney General A. M. Man- son announced here. Beer will be sold only In electoral istricts which voted for beer in a June plebiscite. Thus, whatever 1i- censes are lssued in Vancouver will be in downtown polling divisions which voted “wet.” & Beer halls will not be allowed to sell soft drinks, sandwiches or tobac- co in any form, as it was decided their sale would hurt the trade of dealers In these lines, Mr, Manson sald. It was also felt that sale of soft drinks might lead to the sale of hard Mquor in the guise of soda pop. Provincial license fees and profits will go Into a “general liquor profits account” and municipalities will share in these. KLAN DEFEAT SHOWN. City Trustees Appear Losing in Re- call Election.
