Restore the Canteen to the Army Ex Cavalryman's Plea
Ex cavalryman argues Congress erred in abolishing the army canteen. He portrays it as a social club for enlisted men that reduced desertion and drunkenness, aided moral discipline, and funded post needs, while its removal led to dives, drug use, and more discipline problems across posts. He cites Jefferson Barracks and Presidio, warns of dope, and urges restoration to curb vice and improve welfare.
