Mitchell brought back from
France the positive opinion that air
craft was the military weapon of
the future. From 1920 until today
he has fought stubbornly for rccog-

This time it appears he has fore

more than probable that he will lose
his post as assistant chief and the
rank that goes with it and be sent
to an outlying post. Mitchell says
he will accept anything coming to
him. He has only three more years
of service before he is eligible for
retirement, still in the prime of
life. If he proves that aircraft are
entitled to rank equally with battle

be satisfied. He has "sold' the

of postponcment of the Washing

cement safety apron and on trying
to regain the boards went into Il
series of skids that ended only when
his car smashed into the lower rail.

causing his car to skid across the
