mit soldiers to buy Intoxicating drinks
under Aprtaln restriction*, and It Is urged
that they encourage drunkenness through
out the army The action taken by the
Methodist ministers Is significant, esp -
dally since Ibe resolution was paiae-1

tion was ss follows:
"Atlanta. Ua., Deo. 17. 1 —To the Mil-

This action on the pirt of ihe ministers
was brought about by Information receiv

had petitioned that the canteen be made
perpetual In the army. The Archbishop
wan of th* opinion that tht* would regu
