Dear Mrs. Donache:
In a memorandum which has
come to my desk this morning,
note that your boy, now an Aviation
Cadet, has been specially selected
for training as Pilot in the Army
Air Forces.
In order to win this war, it is
vital to have the best-qualifieo
young men at the controls of oul
military aircraft. Upon their preci
sion, daring and GOODNESS will de
pend in large measure the success
of our entire war effort.
The duties of an Army Pilot
call for high degree of mental anG
physical alertness, sound judgmen
and an inherent aptitude for flying
Men who will make good materia
for training as Pilots are rare. The
Classification Board believes YOU
boy is one of them.
If he shows the progress we
confidentially expect of him, hi
will in all probability win his wings
as qualified Pilot. Considering the
rigid requirements for this train
ing, you have every reason to be
proud of your boy today. I congratu'
late you and him.
Sincerely yours,

Federal Regulations Being Overlooked

The Federal regulations for shoot

tory bird treaty isn't just stopgap,
but a permanent control over all
ducks, geese and shore birds. it
seems that all State laws should be
made to conform to Federal regula-
tions, so there will be no further
conflict in administering them.
This lack of cooperation between
State and Federal governments is
