War Secretary Sees Prohibition Era Evils
In Dry Zone Rider to New Draft Bill

The tert OF Secretary OF War
Sttmson's appeal to Congress last
night not to establish prohibition
areas around military camps
tollo1Us:
I am gravely disturbed about the
proposed amendment to S. 2748,
which would prohibit the sale of
all alcoholic liquors, including beer
and wine, on military reservations
and in adjacent communities.
I do not question the motives of
this legislation. The practical re-
suits I do question and strongly d.
plore. They will tend to aggravate
conditions it seeks to remove and
to- confuse a logical program for,
the control of the liquor evil already
in successful operation by the Army.
I cannot too strongly emphasize the
fact that the effects Of the proposed
amendment will be destructive
rather than constructive.
Constructive Morale Program.
From the beginning of the emer-
gency the War Department has put
into effect a constructive program
for building morale and character.
Great pains have been taken to
provide carefully planned and COM
prehensive religious activities and
moral guidance as we'll as whole
some recreation for the leisure peri
odS Of the men. For the first time
in its history the Army has con-
structed in every unit a chapel to
house its religious activities. Not
only this, but in cooperation with
the various denominational leaders
OF the country closer supervision
has been exercised over the work
of the chaplains to see that full ad-
vantage of these facilities Is taken.
The result has already been marked.
The reports of the various COM
manding officers already show that
the attendance at these centers of
religious and moral activity is such
as to be an ample vindication of the
success of our efforts in this di-
rection. 1t has been reported to me
that the attendance at the religious
services in the Army is far higher
than the church attendance in many
OF the surrounding neighborhoods
from which these boys came. At the
same time the recreation centers
in each unit, guided by efficient
hostesses, are daily crowded with
men spending their leisure time
in wholesome recreation. I am
speaking Of things which I have
personally observed and in which
I have deep interest.

Job Offers Recalled.
One committee official recalled
that when Mr.. Flynn, Bronx leader
and New York national committee
man, succeeded James A. Farley as
national chairman in August, 1910,
he turned down an offer to become
Mr.. Farley's successor as Postmaster
General.
At that time Mr. Nicholson also
rejected several liberal offers in pri-
Vate business to stay on his present
Job at Mr.. Flynn's request. John
Franklin Carter, 45-year-old author
and Washington columnist under the
pen name of Jay Franklin, was
mentioned then as a possible sue
cessor to Mr.. Nicholson.
Meanwhile, it was announced that
Majority Leader Barkley and
Speaker Rayburn will make pre-

mittee.

1t. Bruce Fohnestock Killed
In New Guinea Accident
Officer and Explorer
Member Of Family
Well Known Here

1t. A. Bruce Fahnestock, U. S.
A., member of a distinguished
Washington family, who, with
his brother Sheridan, was widely
known for explorations of South
Pacific waters, lost his life in an
accident in New Guinea several
days ago, the Associated Press
reported today.
1t. Fahnestock was killed, the re-
port said, In the same accident
which took the life of Byron Darn
ton, war correspondent for the New
York Times. No further details
have been given.
Capt. Sheridan Fahnestock,
U. S. A., flew to New Guinea to
attend the military funeral accorded
his brother and Mr.. Darnton. The
two accident victims were buried
side by side as an Army bugler
sounded taps.
Mother Shared voyages.
The Fahnestock brothers, together
with their mother, Mrs. Mary Sher-
idan Fahnestock, achieved wide
spread fame in pre-war days for
their expeditions to little known Pa
cific islands. Mrs. Fahnestock,
widow of the late A. Bruce Fahne-
stock, ST., prominent inventor, now
resides in Essex, Conn.
1t. Fahnestock's widow, the for
mer Bette Zacher, is living with
her 3-year-old son, Sheridan zacher
Fahnestock, in Hartford, Conn. A
sister of 1t. Fahnestock, Mrs.
Thomas F. Plummer, lives in Old
Hickory, Tenn.
1t. Fahnestock was 80 years old.
From early boyhood, he and his
brother were virtually inseparable.
They fitted out their first boat, the
Director, in 1885, and began a series
OF adventures together that ended
only with 1t. Fahnestock's death.
Studied Native Music.
Later, their mother joined them
on their cruise. Early in 1910, the
Fahnestock boys, with their mother
and a crew of more than a dozen,
began an expedition into the South
Seas to record aboriginal music.
study bird life and chart the islands.
In August of that year, Bruce
was compelled to return to Hartford
Tor business reasons. Two months
later, the boat on which Sheridan

and his mother were travelling
struck a reef off the Australian
coast and went down. All hands
were saved.
Before their departure, under the
auspices of the American Museum of
Natural History, the Fahnestocks re-
ceived letter Of blessing and en-
couragement from President Roose-
velt. The Fahnestocks also revealed,
at the time, that they had received
permission from the President to
survey and map certain areas in the
Pacific for the benefit of the Navy.

Army Orders Plants
And Federal Agencies
To Observe BIackouts
CiviIion Authorities Given
Measure Of Enforcement;
Con Report Violutors

Orders calling on Federal agencies
as we'll as civilian war plants to
comply with instructions for prac-
tice or actual blackouts "even
though this means a temporary
cessation of production" were issued
today by Maj. Gen. Milton A. Reck-
ord, commanding general OF the
Sd Service Command.
Gen. Reckord's order, which af-
fects Pennsylvania, Maryland, Vir-
ginia and the District, follows in
structions issued recently by the
Eastern Defense Command on the
same score.
Making specific mention Of
plants, installations and establish
ments owned by the Federal Gov
ernment and operated by Federal
officials" the order asks State agen-
cies to report cases of non-compli-
ance to the commanding general
of the service command in which
the agency is located "for appro-
pirate action"
mad NO Authority.
Previously, District civilian de-
tense officials have had no specific
authority over Federal buildings.
Compliance with test blackouts has
varied from complete disregard
for them in the early days to almost
complete cooperation now.
The Navy Yard and other war es-
adjustments, however, have been
blacking out only 10 minutes. Gen.
Reckord's order puts the matter of
choice up to the civilian defense
chiefs.
The order does not provide for
complete exemption from tests be-
cause of changes in personnel, or
ganization and facilities after an
initial proof of blackout proficiency.
The civilian authorities are given
power to enforce blackout COM
pliance, except in the case of Fed
eral agencies when the commanding
general of the service command
takes the appropriate action.
Must Observe 10 Minutes.
Although the State defense coun-
ellis have authority to grant relax
alton of the practice blackout rules,
this relaxation cannot reduce to a
period Of less than 10 minutes the
full participation in the blackout on
the part OF the plant, the order
states.
Before even this is granted, how
ever, the order requires that pro-
vision be made for the disbursement
of boiler rooms, fire pump installa-
tions, sprinkler valve locations, main
electric light and power transforma-
ton and distribution facilities and
first aid and hospital rooms.
Relaxation of practice blackout
rules to the point of 10 minutes par
'ticipation may be given to war
plants specifically designated by
the commanding general of the
Services of Supply. The plants must
have demonstrated the ability to
blackout their operations within S
minutes from the time of alarm,
however. Industrial operations
which require the pulling of fires,
dumping of iron or steel or other
measures to extinguish glow may
continue during test blackouts if
they have demonstrated their ability
to obscure, shield or extinguish il

ton Of practical and tolerant meas
ures, from education, supervision
and restriction rather than from
fiat prohibition. The sale of beer
on the military reservations during
restricted periods in our belief IA
cilitates self control and discour-
ages excesses. Prohibit this and
those who desire such beverages will
inevitably resort to the speakeasy
and bootlegger outside the military

rience as Secretary of War many
years ago, the so-caHed canteen leg

able aspects of the proposed amend

duty of enforcing prohibition in

civilian communities throughout
the country which are adjacent to
Army installations. The obliga-
ton, apart from the severe strain
it would place on Army personnel,
would also involve the imposition
of military rule in form and to an
extent which would be most unwise.
I am convinced that any attempt
to control the liquor problem
through legislation applied exclu-
sively to military personnel will
only impede the progress now being
made in our own effective methods
of attaining temperance; would i'm
pose upon us the difficult problem
Of combating bootleg operations,
and would seriously undermine mo-
rale. I urge that it not be imposed
upon us by the Congress.
