CAN OFFICER IN UNIFORM
GET DRINK IN HIS CLUB?
Prohibition Section Of Army Law
Raising New and Perplexing
Questions.

The prohibition section of the army
law is raising new and perplexing ques-
tons every day. The latest Is whether
it prohibits an officer in uniform from
being served with a drink in club.
The wording of the law specifically
prohibits the sale of intoxicants to an
officer or man in uniform. but apparent
ly makes no distinction between selling
and serving.
Whether the serving of drink in a
private club would be considered sale
will have to be decided by the Depart
meht Of Justice.
AS the law lays penalties for violation
upon the vender of the intodcants and
none upon any officer or man, the ques-
ton will have to be decided by the civil
branch of the government and not the
army.
