President, United Airlines.

That is an impressive record of high
speed transportation of defense leaders,
business officials, expedited business cor
respondence and emergency movements
of factory tools, parts and goods, add
ing up to the acceleration of our de-
tense program by countless productive
hours
BY superimposing the map of our
country's airways against current in
dustrial map of the United States, one
can readily visualize the direct applica-
ton of air transportation to our defense
program. Industrial plants from coast to
coast and border to border are now
busily engaged in the production of
equipment and materials for use in the
defense of the Nation.
Distant though some of these plants
may be from points of supply, from
centers of supervision and from terri
tories of distribution when measured in
terms of miles, none is farther away
than a few hours by scheduled trans
port service.

Litter squads practice lifting their
patients onto stretchers and getting
out of the woods as quickly and silently
as possible. Whsn squads reach bat
talon first aid station designated by
Red Cross flags, the loaded stretcher is
placed on two medical chests.
Bandages are applied over trouser
leg or shirt sleeve, which seems strange
until it is explained that the Army prac-
tice is to expose as little flesh as possible.
In actual warfare clothing would be cut
or ripped away from the wound.
Although elementary medical subjects
form large part of the program, Col
j. H. Dawson, commanding officer, and
1t. Col j. l. Martin, executive officer, say
the camps most important training is
just plain soldering"
I'VE aim to make the soldier first and
then give him technical knowledge" Col.
Martin explained. IF you give him
technical knowledge first you may not,
in the end have soldier"
A typical days program for a soldier
keeps him busy from reveille at 5:45 am.
until retreat at Sis pm.-and sometimes
afterward.
Usually Free After Retreat.
Besides morning and afternoon classes,
there are regular drills and frequently
1s to 20 mile marches These, as well
as the night 'maneuvers" Of frst-aid
specialists, sometimes come after the
days classes, but as one oficer put it:
There's no time and a half here
there's some double time, but it's all
running"
Usually, however, soldiers are free after
retreat and have their week ends off.
The schools for typists, cooks, mess
sergeants and mechanics are conducted
in cooperation with the Illinois Board
for Vocational Education. The board
has furnished 16 civilian instructors and
some mechanical equipment. Meat cut
ting is demonstrated to prospective mess
sergeants and cooks by specialists from
the National Live Stock and Meat Board
Selectees arriving here usually have al
ready been designated for certain kinds
of special instruction, depending on their
experience and the results of aptitude
tests. Groups begin training at different
times, so that the turnover is on a stag
gered basis.
After completing the 13-week course
here, soldiers who have shown special
ability may be transferred to Army hos
pitals or other training centers for more
technical instruction.

Selectees Trained as
Medical Technicians
By Willis Young.

CAMP GRANT, Ill, June 28.-At
night, it's not unusual to see dark forms
come out of the woods here carrying
stretchers.
Ambulances without lights can be
heard moving slowly along the roads.
During the day, soldiers with bandaged
heads, arms or legs are a common sight
in classrooms.
Men in uniform are found also, prac-
ticing typing, cutting meat, cooking and
repairing automobiles and trucks.
It's all part of the training thousands
of soldiers are receiving at this $780,
acre Army camp in flrst-aid work and
other special jobs.
Need 10000 Technicians.
Camp Grant, a Medical Department
replacement training center, gives newly
inducted soldiers basic military training
and the first special instruction. There
are only two camps of its kind in the
United States, the other medical re-
placement center for selectees being at
Camp Lee, Va.
1t has been estimated that 10000 quail
fed medical technicians of various kinds
will be required for an Army of !, 100000.
The Army has calculated the number
of specialists that will be required for
each 1000 men, the number varying
widely in different military units.
In medical units, the estimated number
per 1000 is: Medical technicians, 10;
surgical technicians, 80; sanitary tech
nicians, %; dental technicians, "a; clerks,
26; cooks, 80; pharmacists, 5.
At present there are about $500 SOL
diers in training in this camp, which is
still growing. This does not include the
cadre or permanent staff of 900 officers
and men. The camps 361 buildings
occupy total of 191 acres and additional
buildings have been authorized by Con-
greSS
Young men who formerly were musi-
clans, clerks or were in variety of other
occupations in civilian life are being in
troduced here to the fine art of applying
sprints. putting on bandages. loading and
unloading ambulances and similar work
The camp also has schools for cooks.
mechanics, chauffeurs, motorcychsts.
clerks and mess sergesnts. These are
called common specialists"
Infantry units, for example, will need
"a cooks, % general clerks, general
mechanics, 8 mess sergeants and 81
truck drivers per 1000 men.
Soldiers sent into the woods at night
must grope their way among trees and
over ohxt ar1es tn find other soldiers 11,ipo
on the ground, supposedly wounded.

Airlines Save Productive Hours

A defense official may leave Washing
ton this evening and be in Los Angeles
at the opening of business tomorrow
morning after crossing the continent
without the loss of single business
hour
The failure of specialized piece of
machinery in a Seattle plant may
temporarily paralyze its production. But
replacement can be shipped this after
noon from Hartford, Conn, and within
"a hoors be installed in the Pacific
Northwest factory, which can then re-
sumo operations with only small loss.
Every night literally thousands OF
pounds of airmail leave the Eastern
Seaboard for delivery to West Coast
cities the next day.
If one will measure distance in terms
of hours, instead of miles, it becomes
obvious that, compared with older stand
ards, the airlines of this country have
virtually shrunk our Nation 5000 miles
in breadth down to the effective size
of the State of Pennsylvania.

as large as the plant area-to park
workers cars.
Uniteds two top men-Chairman Fred
Rentschler and President Gene wilson
know what they want in the way of
engines.
Mr.. Rentschler, one of the organizers
of Wright Aeronautical after the World
War, resigned as president of that firm
in 1924 to help Pratt e. Whitney develop
its horsepower Wasp air-cooled ra-
dial engine.
Mr.. Wilson, veteran flyer and former
naval commander. was chief of the En-
gine and Design Section of the Bureau
OF Aeronautics before joining United
in 1890.
Pratt & Whitney Division, at present
is concentrating on manufacture of four
principal types of engines They are
the 45o-horsepower Wasp Junior. the
600-horsepower Wasp, the 1,200-horse-
power Twin Wasp and the 2,000-horse-
power Double Wasp.
Much of United's motor parts-making
is done by outside plants. The company
buys airplsne engine components and
materials from more than 900 suppliers
Pratt e. Whitney engines are used in
planes made by long list of manufac-
turers. including Douglas Aircraft, Con-
solidated. Vultee, North American, Glenn
L. Martin, Curtiss Wright, Lockheed.
Grumman and Republic.
New f1edgling producers of Pratt &;
Whitney engines are rising in the Middle
West. Ford is building new plant to
turn out at lease 1000 P. & w. engines
under national defense order, and
Buick and Chevrolet are pushing plans
for manufacture of P. & w. aircraft
motors, too.
The main idea is to get Wasps. in big
numbers, and put them in the air
quickly.

What part are the domestic airlines
playing in our national defense pro-
gram?
The answer to that question is simple,
yet important.
The airlines have the direct response
bility of saving productive hours to speed
the building of our defenses. In these
days, when time is so precious, the many
productive hours conserved by domestic
transport planes every day and every
night represent a real contribution to
the acceleration of our Nations defense
program.
Recently, Secretary of War Stimson
stated that time is the essential element
of defense The airlines have the job
Of saving time for the defense program.
Domestic airlines, operating over a to-
tai of 35 900 miles of airways within the
borders of the United States, will fly
during 1941 nearly billion revenue pas
senger miles, 2O,687 ,911 900 mail-pound
miles and 87O,O96OOO express pound

John Ford's Bright Idea
Saves His Studio $40, 900
BY JOHN TODD

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 4.--This is
one of the brain flashes which
caused Hollywood TO dub director
John Ford a genius.
Ford wanted a baby for scenes
In the Twentieth Century-FoX
production OF How Green Was
My Valley" from Richard Level
lyn's great novel. California law
sharply limits the working time OF
babies and Ford was worried Of
expensive delays which use of ar
infant for a scheduled four days
might cause. Ford is worrying
gent anyhow.
So in making his application ia
the casting agency, he asked-if
poSsible-for identical twins. He
got them-John and Larry Mitch
ell. They worked alternately as
the child of Anna Lee, playing the
role of Bronwen.
So the baby sequences were
made in two days instead of four
and the studio estimated it saved
$4,000.
