L group of eminent purists now engaged
in attacking the morals of the American
troops in France Happily, only a small

These s!anderous assaults seem to have
been begun in London by an American
preacher. who charged from the pulpit that
the troops composing the American cXpedi-
tionary force were drunken lot; that their
officers had placed no restraint upon them in
the matter of drinking or carousing and that
conditions that were disgrace to the Amcri-
can uniform existed in the camps commanded
by General Pershing.
1t was to be expected, perhaps. that once
such statements were made in one quarter
of the globe and were dgnifed by publicity.
that they would be followed by more or less
echoing in other quarters. Tho shame OF
the situation is, however, that cergymen in
the United States should lend themselves to
so false on attack upon our men. But it is
comforting to recall that not more than a
corporals guard in this country have taken
mp the cry raised by the misguided minister
in London.
American officers abroad and American
officials in Washington are indignant OF
course. over the effort to discredit and dis
honor the troops which America has sent
to France. They know that drunkenness is
not tolerated for minute by General Perish
ing; that he has issued and is enforcing the
most rigid orders against immortality on the
Part OF his men and that his orders are being
carried out with splendid spirit by the troops
OF his command
These charges proceed, no doubt not from
any knowledge OF actual conditions on the
part OF those Responsible for them, but from
distrust Of any commanding general who
may have authorized il soldier in his army

They are not making drunken sots OF their
troops. Instead they are giving their troons
that ration which they know to be necessary
TO their physical welfare.
