SIB,—We desire, as persons deeply interested in social welfare, and
seriously concerned at the provisions of the Licensing Bill now before Parliament, to address you on the subject of that Bill. The concession of the right to compensation with- out any time-limit, and without any equivalent advantage to the public,, and the curtailment of local power are, in our opinion, open to the gravest objections, and calculated to obstruct necessary reforms. We therefore venture to express the hope that the Bill in its present form will not receive your support.—We are, Sir, &c.,
Tuomes BAuLow.
