"HANK"
SAYS ...
There seems to be an opinion running loose that as soon as a man puts on a military uniform he loses most of the identity and becomes a different sort of human being. He discards the ability to think for himself and operates with a peculiar, automatic regularity from reveille until the time he goes to bed. The moment he appears for the first time in khaki he sheds all the intelligence and originality he contrived to accumulate during anywhere from eighteen to thirty years of life on the outside.
It is not uncommon to hear such remarks as, "he plays the piano remarkably well for a Pfc.," or "He's only a corporal, but he speaks five languages." The implication seems to be that anyone in uniform is out of place with such talents. A man, in other words, who can fix a complicated airplane has no business listening to symphony music, or a fellow who can score high on a bayonet course is a freak if he can also read Latin poetry. Soldiers are so many "GI Joes, or Dogfaces."
The result is a manner of "talking down" to the soldiers, which is not only an insult to them—it is an insult to the entire American system of education and an insult to the standard of intelligence of the American people. To speak, as a recent magazine article did, of "terms which a sergeant can understand," implies that the average sergeant is mentally deficient, a corporal not quite right,
either military or civilian far more to young men
Aviation Cadet plan. Uppletion of the course.

The result is a manner of "talking down" to the soldiers, which is not only an insult to them—it is an insult to the entire American system of education and an insult to the standard of intelligence of the American people. To speak, as a recent magazine article did, of "terms which a sergeant can understand," implies that the average sergeant is mentally deficient, a corporal not quite right, and that all men of the grade of private were dropped on their head when young. It evidently does not occur to such writers that some of the finest scientists and craftsmen are holding down posts in the Army and Air Force these days. They would do well to remember that soldiers are simply human beings in uniform endowed with a normal amount of feelings and intelligence.

Old Missouri Sale Bill Found
Something interesting or clever has a habit of getting around the newspapers in a state — and if it is better than usual it jumps boundaries of a certain locale quickly and may be found in papers all over the country. Such is the reprint of announcement of a public sale that up in Missouri later Pennington and Emery brought in copies of town Missouri papers these reprints. The sale bill is over 100 yrs was typical of the sale Pike county was heard the outfitters to caring gold rush days. Follows:

either military or civilian life offer more to young men than the Aviation Cadet plan. Upon completion of the course, the Aviation Cadet will be commissioned a second lieutenant in the Air Force Reserve, granted the aeronautical rating of pilot, and then placed on active duty for a period of three years. Aviation Cadet graduates who have completed two years of college may compete for a regular Air Force commission during their tour of active duty. And, as a regular Air Force officer, there is practically no limit to a young man's career if he is competent, hard working and ambitious to get ahead.
You high school graduates and two year college men owe it to yourselves to investigate the Aviation Cadet program.
State Tax Rates Lower Despite More Expenses
Despite rising costs of California local government, reflected by an increase of $78,158,595, or 16.8 per cent, in the total of county, city and district taxes this year over last, the average tax rate per $100 of assessed value of tangible property has decreased 17 cents, or 3.3 per cent. This was revealed by William G. Bonelli, chairman of the State Board of Equalization, upon completion of studies made by the board. Commenting upon the comparative tax yields and rates, Bonelli said:
"The paradox of higher taxes and lower rates is explained by the circumstance that the value of tangible property subject to taxation has increased more rapidly than the amount of taxes levied by local governments. This year the aggregate assessed value of tangible property such as land, buildings, equipment and mercantile inventories was $10,993,637,-225, marking a gain of $1,892,-793,837 or 20.7 per cent over the $9,100,843,388 total for the last fiscal year. The growth of the taxable wealth in the State has thus made possible total tax levy..."

of a public sale that has turned up in Missouri lately. Both Lee Pennington and Emmett Woods brought in copies of their home-town Missouri papers to show us these reprints.
