BOSTON CHURCHES To
FIGHT GIN nISTILLERS


An industry Of Boston. started. up
since Europe went to war, is to be cur
tailed if possible through action lust
taken by a company Of Christian lead
ers. One of the scandals of Christian
countries has long been the prompt
ness with which men resident in those
countries and distillers Of gin and whis-
Ky, have followed the missionaries into
Africa and the South Sea islands with
their products. Holland and its gin are
the chief offenders, and since the war
began operations in gin bound from
Holland to Africa, have been carried on
through Boston. The Holland trade
alone amounts to 100000 gallons Of
gin per year. England and Scotland
send a little. but the United states
ranks third, when it furnishes !, 900. 600
gallons.
There has long existed in England n
society of Christian men to curtail ex-
portation Of gin to these mission fields
The duke of Westminster is president
Of il, and the bishop of London is the
chairman. Now there has just been
formed an American section of the COM
mittee, aiming to curtail the exporta-
ton from America. and il possible from
Holland. Germany formerly sent beer,
but that trade has been cut off by the
war. The degradation and poverty OBJ
tanning in some parts Of Africa are
said to be appalling
