ELASTIC AND

The strong national consciousness
OF Canadians prevents many OF them
from admitting that uuitcd States
sentiment has any influence upon
their opinions. Probably the two M
lions are moro lnteEdcpendrnt In
thought than. either realizes.
Certainly any attempt at govern
ment distribution OF liquor In tho
United States would be- a continual
ton OF the Canadian experiment.
Government sale and tho elimination
OF the old open bar havo become the
carmarks OF the system here. Its
adoption In dry provinces now is con.
sidercd In many cases protest
against extreme bone.dry agitation
by the prohibltionists.
II Canada Is not TO serve rs a
guiding influence in American prohl
bItion policy. II Is furnishing at least
a laboratory demonstration OF Che
working out OF virtually every type
OF alcohol regulation yet invented.
