On Christmas Eve, 177d, the Amerimn troops crossed the Del- aware and won the Battle of Tren. ton when they surprised the Hessian soldiers oeiebrnting the season with drinking and feasting,

The Battle of Wiitcrloo. fought near Brussels in June, 1815, prov- ed the decisive defeat for Napol- eon because Marshall Ney, retir. ing to his headqunrtrs on the eve of battle, “fell into a deep and mo- loriized sleep" after ‘tnbibing his favorite Burgundy too freely and “when he awoke. . he found himself ap urently unable to give orders- or reach any decision."

Crown Prince acknowledging the receipt of Schmidts report said, "If we had not found ucohol we would have advanced farther than the March offensive. You are right on laying your finger on this painful wound."

Reports in the press during re- cent months reveal the verdict of the French Government in August, 1940, that "alcoholism the chief cause of collapse and the Worst of France's tour greatest problems.”
