WET CANTEENS
BAN LIFTED IN AUSTRALIA SO FAR AS VOLUNTEERS ARE CONCERNED. UNDER RIGID MILITARY DISCIPLINE. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This-Day, 12.35 p.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. The “Telegraph’s” Melbourne correspondent says the Federal cabinet has decided to lift the ban on wet canteens in A.I.F. camps in Australia but they will be placed under rigid military discipline. Wet canteens will be permitted only in camps where all the men have voluntarily enlisted. Militia camps, where the men are performing universal service, remain dry and it has also been decided not to extend the wet canteen concession to the R.A.A.F.
