The advocates OF the restorat ton of the
canteen in the army are Reinforced
srongly by the reports OF stan officers
in the Philippines made public today.
These reports. all of which condemn
the present arrangement as detrimental
TO the army. will be used by the Score
,ary O. War in his argument 20 Congress

hibition feature. They say that the dive
keepers are as anxious as the anti-csn-
teen advocates to prevent its repeal
Gen. J. p. Sanger. inspector general or
the Philippines. under instruction from
the War Department. made a special
study Of the effects Of the new law. He
sums up his observations as follows.
The social life OF our soldiers in the
Philippines except in a few places. is
absolutely without attraction. and as a
result they consort more or less with
the natives. and soon adopt some OF
their habits. with no benefit to the ma
tives or TO themselves It IS idle 10
speculate on this subject. OF to say what
he ought TO be; the American soldier re-
quires a healtnful outlet Tor his super
abundant energies.
Until recently the post exchange.
with its well regulated canteen. has
been one of the Observation-Disclosures
through which this has been attempted.
and IT, as believed. it has exercised a
wholesome influence on our soldiers at
home. in the Philippine Islands it would
no doubt prove 20 be a mental, moral
and physical benefactiOn."

Iy prepared statistics showing that in
100 companies OF the division between
500 and 100 per cent OF the enlisted men

listment From this and other figures
he deduces that there is no fear that

initiate or induce habits Of intemper-
