After Repeal-What?
Canadian Provinces Systems Range From Strict to
Liberal in Control of Hard and
Light Liquor.

private residence or hotel room used
as q residence.
No liquor can be purchased without
permit good for one year and costing
81 for hard liquor and 81 for beer and
wine. Each purchase is entered on the
permit at the time and forms q record
which Is frequently used In police court
cases Of bootlegging and drunken
driving.
Prmit Plan Profitable.
Purchases Of either spirits or beer are
virtually unlimited. but abuses, however,
are watched closely. The commission
sells in government stores almost every
kind Of alcoholic beverage.
The permit system act. which went
into effect in June, 1927. brought profits
of SIC, ,OOO, 900 in 1881, $9, ,260, 900 in 1892,
and an estimated $3.50, 900 for 1888.
OF the nine Canadian provinces, only
Prince Edward Island has prohibition.
All others have some form of govern
ment sale.
The Scott act. passed by the Domin-
ion, became law In Prince Edward Is
land in 1880 after plebiscites in three
counties, and the entire province became
dry, as 1t has been since with the ex-
ception of three years when Charlotte
town, the capital, voted against the act
under the local option clause, the rest
of the province meanwhile remaining
dry.
Beer Change Advocated.
Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta,
British Columbia, Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick have systems similar to the
two larger provinces. All provinces reap
substantial profits from the sale of
liquor.
Beer is coming to the fore today as
question in Ontario. Lsgalization of
beer in the United States has brought
drop in tourist traffic across the line
and focused attention on efforts to
relax liquor laws to allow beer by the
glass.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-01-06

In keeping with suggestion of- fered last week by Judge Frederick M. Peasley, the receiver for the Merchants Trust company today presented evidence in superior court to show tho nature of two pieces of property on which the closed bank holds second mort gages. The matter pertaining to Foreclosure was continued.
 Judge Peasley heard Q motion In which permission was sought by the Waterbury National bank to sue the receiver in connection with Q first mortgage foreclosure on tho Sons of Italy property 'at sos Bank street, on which the Merchants Trust company holds Q second fnortgngc. At that time, Judge Peasley suggested that 1t might work to tho advantage of the re. ceiver to bring foreclosure pro- ceedings Itself on the second mort gage and save tho funds which would have to bc paid to redeem q first mortgage foreclosure.
 Attorney Francis T. Reeves, re- ceiyer's counsel, placed on tho staEd today, Daniel T. Harrington, Jr, who appraised tho property on Bank street, ns worth $27,500. Mr Warrington said 1t was three story brick building housing stores, of- ficen and tcnements. The income

from the property was set at s2oo monthly.
 The Waterbury Savings bank socks to foreclose tho first mort gage on the property, but before 30 doing, must have permission from the court so that the Mer- chants Trust company can be named co.defendant.
 Attorney Reeves agrees with Judge Peasley that 1t might be ad- vnntageous In some instances for tho receiver to institute foreclosure proceedings on the second mort. gages held by tho Merchants Trust Co, where payments have been dos faulted, rather than wait until tho holder of the first mortgages brings the actions. The receiver would not have to pay so much out of tho estate of the. closed bank to res deem these properties and could use tho income from tho properties, to meet the interest and tax install- ments when due.
 Judge Peasley continued the matter to-day because counsel for tho Waterbury Savings bank was engaged out of town.
 The second piece of property in- vestigated by Mir Harrington is To- cated at A Young street and con sists of 6 room bungalow with garages. The market value was fixed by MT Harrington at $b,0O0.
