IN FAVOR OF CANTEEN.
Action by Congress Of George Wash
ington University.

The canteen has been restored to the
army. so far as the university congress of
the George Washington University is con-
cerned. Following the recommendation of
many officers of the United States military
establishment, the university congress- at
its session last evening, by a two-to-ene
vote. enacted into law house bill No 100,
which provides: BE it enacted by the uni
versity congress. that the canteen be re-
stored to the army

10th and H streets, which opened at 8
o'clock last evening. Messrs. Ambrose of
Montana and Rowley of Massachusetts
spoke in favor of the canteen bill. while Mr.
Helmbeck of Illinois and others spoke
against it. The debate was very warm at
times, and is said to have been one of the
best of the session. Under the three minute
rule several members spoke for and against
the bill, and finally, by a vote of eight to
four, the bill was carried. amid applause.
Mr. Ambrose, who made the opening
speech in favor of the passage of the can
teen measure, was provided with copy of
the editorial in The Star of yesterday on
the subject of the proposed restoration of
the post exchange. which, he said. was the
correct name of the so-called canteen. Both
he and Mr.. Rowley were also provided with
facts and figures from the War Department
showing the necessity for the reinstatement
of the canteen privilege.
Mr. Ambrose paid a splendid tribute to
the American army from the revolution to
the present time and the fighting men who
compose it. He~said Congress was not deal
ing with children when II passed such
measures the anti-canteen act, but with
men of fixed habits and asserted that those
who are most violent in their opposition to
the restoration of the army canteen are
the keepers of low dives which surround
the military posts and dispense to the SOL
diers vile decoctions which ruin their moral
mental and physical natures He also as
serted that the practical people of this
country demand the restoration of the post
exchange for the sale of light beers and
wines.
The speaker announced that the bill for
debate next Tuesday night reads fol-
lows: BE IL enacted by the university
congress in session assembled, that con-
stitutional amendment should be secured

rect vote of the people" Messrs. Taylor

ginia will uphold the negative
