He would not deign to answer the imputations that the object of the -Government in having the three-fths clause was to pleaselthe liquor int`_e,rests. It was a public object, which had been studied a long time, and it was found that in all civilized countries of the world, except the United States, no such ac- tion` was allowed on a straight` ma- jority vote. Premier Asquith said last year that it would be impossible to take away `licenses on a straight `majority vote,. but he. further stated that the licenses could` be '?estored ; on "a straight majority.

He stated that-the de- putation was of the opinion that the three-fths clause, which was a pre- cautignary one, was no longer neces-_ sary. and was notjust as .a matter of principle. _He favored putting the local option question on the same footing as the license question.
