CLASSES SALOON
AS HUN Agent
Rev. W. A. Vrooman Says
War Work is Held
Up by Drink
SAYS 1000 MEN
LOAF EVERY DAY

The destruction OF American man
power by drink, which makes liquor e
powerful agent for Germany, was the
theme Of a sermon preached by the
Rev. w. A. VrOOman in the Unitarian
Church yesterday morning. Mr. NroO
man gave his facts a local application
saying:
"If the 1877 saloons and liquor stores
and three brewerles Of Wilmington
were placed in line and divided into
city blocks OF 100 yards each, they
would make for one side Of a street
more than a mile and a half long. This
mile and a half OF booze dispensaries
lis the front line of German attack IN
this State.
1--WE do not attack the men in the
business. They are there to supply, a
public demand. The fault lies win the
people who ignorantly support the
greatest destroyer OF food and man
power in America.
"Today the United States Employ
ment Service is combing the country
for men. They find multitudes OF hu-
man beings in mems clothes, but a
large percentage OF them will not or
cannot work. Their manhood is gone
The Hog Island shipyards and the Del
aware shipyards are full OF slackers
who basely glory in their big wages
and little work. The nation suffers
the army and the navy suffer from the
degeneracy OF the host OF slackers with
great appetites for beer and bread and
who hate real work. The greatest cause
OF this is the saloon.
Last week not less than 1000 men
day were absent from their work
boozing around saloons in this city
That means that not less than 100000
men a day are doing the same thing in
the whole country. And the nation
urgently needs them.
