tions, and fewer definitions are made.

been omitted
The power of the chief of the division
has been materially cut down.

ENGLAND'S CABINET
AGREES ON PLAN TO
CURB DRINKING EVIL
Total Prohibition Ruled
Out-Plans to Encourage
Brewing of Light Beers
and Regulate Publ ic
Houses.
1nNnnN Anil 21-

LONDON, April q.
The Cabinet gave further consideration
70 the drink problem last night and the
Intention is that Lloyd George shall sub
init the Governments liquor proposals
to the House OF Commons tomorrow.
Although the Cabinets plans are not
yet finally adjusted, it can be authors
tatively stated that the following are
the main heads under which the Gov
ernment intends to take action:
j. Prohibition of the sale of immature
spirits.
2. encouragement of brewing lighter
beers.
3. Special public house restrictions IN
munitions areas.
4. Reduced hours Of sale generally
8. Compensation for interests affected.
The Cabinet arrived at this program
after great variety of temperance
schemes. Total prohibition was ruled
out at the start, and later the schemes
for prohibition of spirits and cXpropria-
tlon of the whole of the licensed houses
In the kingdom The Cabinet is greatly
in doubt as to eXnctly how to frame re-
strictions for the areas In which muni-
tions are manufactured Although the
big scheme for state ownership finally
was withdrawn, many ministers are
loath to part with Il, and 1t Is thought
possible that n similar plan on n
smaller scale will be devised for GER
tain districts II Is understood today
there will be a new regulation pro-
hibiting the sale Of immature spirits
under certain age and prohibiting
the manufacture of the heavier types
of beers. Good spirits and light beers
are to be encouraged. a uniform plan
will be put forward regulating the
hours of sale, and the facilities for pro-
curing drink will be still further reduced.
The plan to place a heavier taxation on
exciseable liquors was definitely ahan-
doned.

escaped. The pair captured were taken
