Good Templars Object to Intoxicants in Army The following resolution presented Tuesday evening by Kev. John Ovall was unanimously' adopted by the Good Templars of Salem: Whereas, Many of the best young men from our midst have responded to their country's call and have gone forth into army life, to remain during tho pending world struggle, and i Wherets, This citizen soldiery has ;been taken from dry territory and re I moved into places where they are sub i jectcd to the numerous evils attending j the use of intoxicants, and Whereas, It is especially necessary i that, during such conditions that attend 'at .present, the highest degree of effi ciency mid manhood be maintained, and W hereas, It is universally recognized that the use of intoxicants in any form serves to deteriorate and reduce the j effectuality of all those who make use ' of them, and ; Wherets, It. is the sense of this body to record its objections to the use of anything which would in any manner . detract from the fullest measure of po j tentiality to which our boys might at Itain, therefore be it. I Resolved by the Good Templars of the city of Salem, Oregon, that we nn- nounee' our opposition to manufactory jof food stuff into aleohol and to the WANTS AMERICANS General Petain Appeals for Them To Be Sent at Once to Get Proper Training Xew Tork, Way 10. General retain, new commander of the French armies. j appeals for American volunteers to be jtcnt abroad "immediately" in an in terview ith Whitney Warren, noted j architect, published by the Xew York j Times today. Asking for volunteers at once, retain ' says: "These volunteers would at first be organized with French units, but still respecting tho autocracy of America. It is understood that it is a moral neces sity that they fight under their own flug, but there is also necessity for a period of transition or instruction when quicker nnd better results eould be obtained by the above method." Petain points out that these volunteer units could later be used as skeleton organizations for the bigger American armies. "The foundation of American volun teer units," he said, "will comprise two periods. First, constitution and equip ment in America, second, intensive in struction in France. The construction and formation of officers is all im portant, and is especially what was lack ing in the case of the English. Officers should be very numerous, enough for at least 100 divisions. They should be tak en from your regular army or militia, from among regular soldiers and young men who have a certain amount of edu cation. Send at once as many colonels, majors and captains as possible, to be stationed with French officers at the front." retain expressed confidence in Amer ica's ability for the " herculean effort" of raising and equipping a big army by selective service and said this huge army must be trained both at home and behind the lines- BRITISH ARE AGAIN (Continued from page one.)
