MAKING ENGLAND SOBER.
Powers of British for the Control of
Liquor Business.
From the New York Tribune.

From Inc New 1ork Iriblue-
The powers of the new board for
the control of the liquor traffic in
Great Britain are great enough TO sat
isfy any man short of a downright
prohibitionist. No stringent rules have
been drawn up for general application:
it lies with the board to determine
which areas are in need of regulation,
and to what degree. But for the pur-
pose of regulation they have "A large
number of measures at their command
and may use any or all of them in
correcting the consequences of drunk
enness or excess in the use OF strong
drink.
1t is all a question of munitions, and
the board is to be made up of persons
chosen by the minister of munitions.
Any area in which munitions are pro-
duced is subject to treatment by the
new board. which exists, as the order
in council puts it, for the purpose
of increasing, directly or indirectly.
efficiency of labor in such areas from
being impaired by drunkenness. alco-
holism or excess.
To this end the members of the board
have many means at their disposal.
They are at liberty, for instance, to
regulate the hours during which any
place where liquors are sold may re-
main open. If they think that some
particular kind of drink is more mis-
chievous than another they may pro-
hibit the sale of that brand. and IL
they are not satisfied with the manner
in which any place is conducted they
may take the business over and re-
quire il to be conducted under their
own supervision. Moreover. If they
see fit, they may direct that any
licensed premises or club in the area
in which intoxicating liquor is sold by
retail or supplied shall be closed either
for all purposes or for the purpose
of such Sal2 or .u.'g,!y.
