| _ WESTON TIMESâ€"ADVERTISER a) LOCAL FIRMS ‘SHOW OFF TO AMERICANS The liquor interests have little to gain but the townspeople have a lot to lose . . . their right to have at their fingertips all the legal products they want to buy. Let the No‘s holler all they want that the invisible ‘Liquor interests‘ are pushing the town into degredaâ€" tion. People will buy liquor, beer and wine whether it x sold in town or not. If Weston goes ‘wet‘ there will be no more liquor sold in Metro, than before . . . there will not bg‘ any more ‘drunks or teenage drinking. _ If he wants a drink, he will get one; why can‘t he buy one, or a bottle or a case of beer in his dwn town? While liquor and beer outlets may not make Wesâ€" ton into a thriving community, they will, undoubtedly help the business in town to some extent. It is actually more dangerous to the public good not to have the sale of alcohol in town that to allow it. Think of the person who wants a drink and must drive several miles to get it. If he drinks and tries to drive home, he is in a position to have an accident or at least an impaired driving charge lodged against him. Therein is the prime mistake of the prohibitionists â€" that liquor, beer and wine are totally bad. Why don‘t they try to outlaw every thing which may have harmful effects on human beings? We could easily do without so many things â€" candy, automobiles, sleeping tablets, milk (stronium 90) television, movies, horse racing, card games, cigarettes, and maybe even sex, which would solve all our problems once and for all. ‘"Do we need the sale of alcohol," Mr. Wilson asks. No, we may not need it, but why shouldn‘t we have it? In a following sentence, Mr. Wilson said alcoholic drinks are "stimulating, destructive beverages," leavâ€" ing little leeway for the person under the impression that alcoholic beverages are acceptable if used in modâ€" eration. Judging from the statements and attitudes of the Vote No Committee, no respectable person drinks A statement by Sam Wilson of the Vote No committee last week read, "Our schools and collegiate and vocaâ€" tional centre had given leadership . . . our churches have given spiritual and social administration . . . our recreational supervision is to be highly commended . ." Does Mr. Wilson say that the people who operate our schools, churches, and recreational activities are teetoâ€" tallers? _ These people include doctors, lawyers, policemen, firemen, Town Councillors laborers, and even ministâ€" ers, as in every town in Metro. ce c *â€"-â€"I':bi'ii'm'étely we are not isolated. The ‘drys‘ are still welcome to their opinions, but they cannot extend them to unwilling neighbours. . o We don‘t find it embarrassing to admit that many, and perhaps the majorfty, of residents of W es t on drink alcoholic beverages It would be an odd town if no one did. The extremists are in the minority as in any comâ€" munity in the world. We certainly do not hope those who abuse the use of alcohol will be able to inflict their habits on the rest of the populace. But why, by the same token, should we allow the other extremists â€" the prohibitionists, to control our lives in any one asâ€" Weston is now a cosmopolitan town comprised of all races of people expressing all types of opinions. Some of our residents use liquor, some do not. Some abuse its use â€" some deplore use of liquor in. any quanâ€" tity or form. . p_ o. C Weston has a hard core of people who look on the use of alcohol as vicious, degrading and filthy. They are welcome to their views and if they lived in an isoâ€" lated community the opinions of this minority would probably be strong enough to prohibit everyone in that area from touching liquor, beer or wine. pect? News treatment may not be ‘equal‘, though, since the Yes Committee of the Businessmen‘s Association are conducting a ‘quiet‘ campaign until next week, and the Vote No committee is ‘going all out‘ to defeat the vote. We will print whatever either side releases, as long as it is in good taste. The only changes we will make are ones of grammatical correction, or t ho se which prevent ‘editorializing‘ in news columns. Being sandwiched by two opposing sides is an o¢â€" cupational hazard of journalism. The only way to ‘win‘ is to form an opinion, publish it and stick with it. While we are obviously, now, in favor of a Yes vote all the way down the card, on November 23, we have and will continue to give fair treatments to both the Yes and No‘s in our news columns. Now â€" for the reasons behind our stand for the Yes Vote: To explain our position on the Liquor Plebiscite, we must also stress that many individuals of both sides = the ‘Yes‘ group and the ‘No‘ group â€" have tried to put pressure on the staff of the Weston Timesâ€"Advertiser. W hen we published stories describing the businessâ€" men‘s part in the Liquor Plebiscite, we were approachâ€" ed by the Vote No committee which strongly hinted they did not expect equal treatment of their side. When we printed straight news stories of the actâ€" ivities of the Vote No committee, we were immediately telephoned by members of the Businssmen‘s Associaâ€" tion, and others, who said they were angry at the amâ€" ount of space the Vote No‘s received. This newspaper hopes the answer will be YES on all six questions. We do not support a Yes vote to curry favor with the town‘s Businessmen‘s Association, nor to flaunt the wishes of the Vote No committee. We believe that a No vote will be a direct insult to the people who make their homes in Weston, as well as a glaring sign proâ€" claiming to the rest of Metro that Weston is a town afraid of its own shadow. In nine days, the people of Weston will be asked to go to the polls to answer six questions with one ansâ€" wer. ‘Do we want the sale of alcoholic beverages in Weston? Editorial We Are In Favor Of A YÂ¥es Vote 9+ Sunday was a busy day in Weston with thousands of resiâ€" dents on the move to Rememâ€" brance Day Ceremonies and to the opening of the Humber Meâ€" morial Hospital‘s new extension More than 1,000 spectators, not including the hundreds of Wesâ€" tonites taking part, attended the Remembrance Day ceremonies at the town‘s cenotaph at the Town Hall.
