Five Briefs Presented At Liquor Hearing Here
Briefs were read by the Dauphin Women's Christian Temperance union and several local bodies urging liquor law changes at a commission hearing. Proposals include defining banquet, requiring birth certificates for permits, restricting out of province ads, and special wards for alcoholics. Others support government controlled stores, sale in public houses, and train or grocery store sales. The commission chair noted uneven public interest across regions and ongoing research into liquor problems.
