soldiers under proper restrictions unanimously adopt ed by Advance tent Independent Or der of Rechabites of city per haps the oldest temperance organizat ion in the world have aroused great interest in temperance circles' Many inembers of this order are men who have served in the army know all about the evil effects of ex cessive drinking from personal ex perience and they realize that the abolition of the canteen is responsible for the increase of drunkenness among soldiers Under present conditions the soldier drinks at low resorts on the outskirts of army posts without any restric tions whatever With the canteen as advocated by the Rechabites he will drink under government supervision and restrictions under which over? indulgence is impossible In addition the Rechabites propose that the government in framing the canteen law should discriminate strongly in favor of beer which has a very small percentage of alcohol and light wines It is believed that the soldier will be satisfied with these beverages obtained under favorable conditions and that he will be less likely to indulge in vile and ardent liquors than at present This action of the Rechabites has the support of army officers and mili tary organizations The Spanish War Veterans at their recent convention here unanimously directed its legisla tive committee to press congress for the restoration of the canteen The Rechabites maintain that by making it possible for soldiers to ob tain such comparatively harmless liquors as beer and light wines under government regulations the cause of true temperance will be up held than by driving them to low re sorts beyond the government reserva tions Most Influential Citizen He Built irst Sugar actory LIEUT MATTHEWS OUND HIM IN THE PHILIPPINES San rancisco
