Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-06-07
VOLUNTARY OBSERVANCE OF THE NEW
LIQUOR LAW.

Hawaii takes a long step toward general prohloi-
ton with the enforcement OF the federal law against
sale of intoxicants to any officer or member OF the
military forces in uniform. That law, news OF which
was published in the late editions Of the Star'Bue-
tin yesterday, is sweeping thorough, emphatic ana
wise.
There is no present prospect OF general pronioi-
ton legislation for Hawaii. Consequently, liquor
will be sold to civilians but not to soldiers This Is
in effect serious discrimination against the SOL
diers. and regrettable discrimination.
Why should not patriotic citizens voluntarily aD-
stain from intoxicants? Why should not they do
their part to end the discrimination?
The law is not specific with reference to sale OF
liquor to national guardsmen reserve officers, but
the spirit OF the law is plain The spirit OF it is that
the United States government, for the purpose OF
efficiency and discipline in war time and for the pur-
pose Of protecting from temptation its vast new
army of young men, desires that no intoxicants be
sold to men in the military or naval service OF the
United States.
And this means that it is the patriotic duty OF
national guardsmen and of reserve officers to abstain
from intoxicants. The men who have volunteered
in the militia or for the officers reserve corps are in
Uncle Sans service, though perhaps not technically
part Of the federal service.
They can do their bit" by voluntarily carrying
out what the federal government IL enforcing on ts
men in uniform.
