Question on Temperance
Subject of Lively Debate
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Press International
All churches advocate tem
perance. But does temperance
mean moderation in the use
of alcoholic beverages or
does it mean total abstinence?
That question, the subject
of lively debate among Am
erican Protestants for more
than a century,' has been
brought to the fore again by
a report from the Episcopal
Church's Joint Commission on
Alcoholism.
The report was issued at an
Episcopal general convention
at Miami Beach, Fla., this fall.
It is 28 pages long, and jat
least "20 of its, pages are de
voted to explaining the rea
sons why Christians, out of
regard for the rights of others
and the sacredness of human
personality, should sharply
restrict the times, places and
above all, the amounts, of
their alcoholic beverage con
sumption. Comparatively little atten
tion has been paid to this part
of the report. What caught the
public eye, and was widely
quoted, was a single sentence
which said:
Has Caused Controversy
"A Christian who drinks
moderately with due regard
for the feelings and needs of
his brothers and with a con
scientious care for the claims
of God can drink with thanks
giving to Him for these bless
ings." This pronouncement has
stirred a hornets' nest of pro
test from advocates of total
abstinence. Methodist Bishop
Presbyterians Announce Events
And Tell Plans for Five Churches
At both morning worship

Kirkland West will preach on

ASHLAND SERMON
Ashland "How Can You
Prepare for Christmas?" will
be the sermon topic Sunday
at 11 a.m. at Grace Lutheran
church by the Rev. E. Paul
Riedel, pastor.
John Wesley Lord of Boston
recently accused the Episco
palians of giving "aid and
comfort to the enemy." The
Florida Baptist convention
unanimously expressed "keen
regret and disappointment."
The Christian Century Maga
zine charges in its current is
sue that the "rationalizations"
found in the report will "an
esthetize the consciences of
millions of church people."
The vehemence of the re
sponse has tended to obscure
the fact that the Episcopal re
port was intended, not to en
cour'age "social -drinking,'
but to define limits within
which it may be acceptable to
the Christian conscience.
For example, the report
says that a Christian should
not drink, even moderately,
in any situation which de
mands "sharp attention, keen
discrimination, self - control
and quick reactions." He
should abstain if he has rea
son to believe that "his drink
ing is an offense to others
who have been or may be
hurt by alcohol." He abso
lutely must forego drinking
if he is, or shows any tend
ency to become, an alcoholic.
The report also warns re
peatedly that "moderate"
drinking does not mean stop
ping just short of drunken
ness. "Any value to be found
in drinking alcoholic bever
ages," it says "is lost where
relaxation becomes less of
control."
If the report had. stopped
there, it would have created
no stir. But it went on to spell
for Christmas.
At 7 p.m. Sunday the young
people will make final plans
for their Christmas caroling
The final instruction class for
persons interested in learning
about the Presbyterian church

out a position that has been
traditional among Episcopali
ans and Catholics: Alcohol is,
like food, a gift of God; it is
not inherently evil, but is
subject to abuse through the
sin of glutteny.
Point To Blight
Methodists, Baptists and
other advocates of total ab
stinence hold that alcohol is
essentially evil because it has
caused infinitely more harm
than good to the human race,
They point to the spreading
blight of alcoholism, which
now claims some five million
victims in America; to the
heavy toll of automobile ac
cidents and crime in which al
cohol is involved.
One of the fullest state
ments of the case for total
abstinence is contained in
Chrpter 2022 of the Methodist
Book of Discipline. This state
ment, which has just been
unanimously reaffirmed by
the Methodist Council of
Bishops, asserts that a Chris
tian has two good reason for
foreswearing all use of alco
hol:
First, "We are stewards of
an ability to think straight."
Even small quantities of alco
hol impair this ability.
Second, "We are stewards
of our influence upon others."
Even though a Christian may
be able to drink moderately
without serious damage to
himself, he should abstain lest
the example of his drinking
"lay a stumbling block in the
path of a brother and thus
contribute to the destruction
of another human personality.
