Carlisle Chief Constable Links Methylated Spirit Habit to Local Sobriety
The Carlisle Chief Constable told Licensing Sessions that local sobriety stems largely from the Liever Control Board system. He cited 78 drunkenness convulsions in the past year and suggested improvements through enforcement and public health measures. An apparent source note lists a pharmacy and supplies.

Rate changes and excise duties eyed by committee
The document outlines proposed reductions in alcohol duties by a penny per gallon with an increase if spirits duties rise by five shillings per gallon. It cites 1917-18 customs revenue of £15,225,295 and estimates 1918-19 at £12,050,000, noting a sharp drop from 1915-16. It discusses broader economic effects, including reduced imports and the impact on stimulants and tobacco revenues, and provides Queensland excise figures for beer and other alcoholic products.
