ARMY IN NEED OF
RADIO OPERATORS

The army needs $4,000 radio oper-
ators right now. 1t has asked the
Federal Board for Vocational Educa-
ton to arrange for the training of
drafted men as radio operators, be-
fore entering the army. This board
has called upon the schools and col
leges af the country to provide for
the actual training.
Among other schools the Univer-
slty of Florida has responded to the
appeal by organizing a school for
radio operators.
The work of this school is princi-
pally in teaching proficiency In the
use of the international Cor CONT
nentaD code-training like that of
a telegraph operator. This is what
the army wants done Instruction
in the electrical side of the work will
be given after entrance into the
army. The army desires the school
to train radio operators to such pro-
f1ciency that they can receive or send
messages at the rate of twenty words
per minute; upon attaining such pro-
ficiency, an official certificate is
given.
The time required to gain this pro-
ficiency is about 200 hours of actual
practice. Accordingly anyone giving
his full time to practice should be
able to get through within six weeks.
There is no charge whatever for
the instruction. Persons taking the
course can get board and lodging at
the University dormitory for IS per
week in advance.
Admission to the school is limited
to conscripted men liable for the next
draft or later drafts. Do not consider
taking the course unless you are
within the age limits for draft GIL to
81 and are physically fit, so far as
you know. There are no other re-
quirements to be met for admission,
except ability to read and write.

Capt. Bennett Files
Complaint About
Moral Conditions

A communication from Captain
Bennett, commanding the Pensacola
air station, reached the Mayors
office yesterday which contained the
very strongest protest against con-
ditions which were represented here,
declaring that an unusual lot of ven
ereal diseases existed among the men
at the station, and protesting that
conditions here were responsible.
Dictated by the police commits
sioner and the mayor, a reply was
mailed last night to Captain Ben
nett, in which it was stated that
every effort would be made to Grad
icate all such places complained of,
and at the same time a letter was
addressed by the commissioner to the
police department, in which was en-
closed a copy of Captain Benefits
letter. Action and results on the
part of the police department were
stressed. This letter reached Police
Captain Anderson yesterday, and it
was read to all watches. The police
were instructed to watch carefully
for any such places, and to take sum-
mary action whenever anything Dor
dering upon such as represented and
complained of, was discovered.
Strict enforcement of the curfew
law was. also stressed in the COM
missioner's letter to the department,
through the captain, and this was
also impressed upon the department
at each watch.
