The Army Air Show

must prove a highly valuable medium
for impressing wildly upon the peo-
pie the necessity of buying more and
more war bonds.
EOR instance, many of the exhibits
Il will bear price tags, so visitors
may walk along the aisles and see
with their own eyes how much
bomber costs and how much a fighter
plane and an anti aircraft gun cost.
To this end, Undersecretary of
War Robert Patterson has ordered
that all types of unrestricted army
aircraft be on display at the Army
Air Show.
These planes are not being taken
out of production or diverted from
their ultimate destination. They are
merely stopping over at the Air Show
en- route from production lines to
fighting fronts.
Their presence is intended not to
delay production, but to spur it.
Otherwise they would not be exhib-
tied.
Indeed, high army officials and
WPB executives are anxious to rid
the public mind of any false idea that
we can taper off in aircraft produc-
ton.
We shall need increasing numbers
of bombers and fighters before the
war is won, in their opinion.
THE Army Air Show will continue
L through June Is, long enough for
everybody in this part of the state
to visit it. 1t is not only parade of
air power and armament, but tangi-
BILE display of American determine
tion reflecting the numberless hours
of hard labor and skill which have
created the mightiest air armada in
history.
The Detroit Times is confident
the Air Show will inspire sentiments
of active patriotism in all who view it.

from college. The program also en-
ables many young men and women OF
superior intellectual ability to secure
college training because of the OPP
portunity they have to earn con-
siderable part of their collie ge
expenses"
Today our students are what
Dean Schneider called passive"
They should, however, be able to
look forward to an active career not
only after graduating but WHILE
THEY ARE LEARNING.
If, for instance, pupil is studying
engineering under the cooperative
educational plan he will for several
months in the year work at engineer
ing in field and shop.
Under this system student
y emerging from college will no
longer ask himself:
where am | going to get jOb?"
Under the study-and-work sys-
tenn he already has a job. He has
been working at it while studying
for it.
West Point and Annapolis are
ideal examples of the union of theory
and practice.
The young men at these naval and
military colleges not only study the
art of warfare and the uses Of instru-
ments used in the military and naval
services but they also PRACTICE,
they MATERlALIZE, what is in
books by solid work.
This should apply to all our educa-
tional institutions.
What Greater America will call
for in the postwar years is perfect
union of HEAD and HAND.
Cooperative education, as ex-
pounded by Dean Schneider in the
RukeySer series Of articles in the
Hearst papers, will make this Greater
America FACT.
1t makes PRODUCER of almost
every college student.

THIS newspaper is proud Of its
Il part in assembling the Army
Air Show which opens tonight at the
City Airport.
We are proud because we believe
sincerely that this exhibition will af
ford the most practical means yet
devised of acquainting Detroit and
Michigan people, and more especially
Detroit and Michigan war workers,
with the actual magnitude of Miehi-
sans war production.
SPoNSORED by The Detroit
- Times, with the cooperation of
the Army Air Forces Materiel Com
mand and the Aero Club of Michigan,
the purposes of the show are three
fold.
FIRST-To show the civilian
population, particularly Uar work
ers, not by statistics or newspaper
accounts or radio recitals, but BY
closeup xpositio of the real
finished products, just what Detroit
has been contributing to American
air poIOer.
SECOND-To give Uar porkers
a chance to see what they are making
Dhen IL is complete.
Of the 100000 aircraft workers in
this area, many have toiled steadily
on small parts and assemblies and
they have been so busy at their in
dividual jobs that they never have
had leisurely opportunity to OBJ
serve the full result of their effort.
It is anticipated the Air Show
thus will Undue them with a new
pride of achievement and a stimulat
ing awareness of their personal i'm
portance in the war program.
THIRD-To give all Civilians an
awakened realization of holD their
uar taxes and War bond money are
spent.

VOLUNTARY COOPERATION
' should be the practical ideal in
all walks of life in the postwar world
of America.
Voluntary cooperation MUST be
our shibboleth if we are to- avoid
COMPULSORY COOPERATION,
which is, in fine, nothing but regi-
mented state socialism or communism.
And nowhere will voluntary and
self-initiated coo peration be of
greater value to the material and
mental future of the people of the
United States than in EDUCATION.
This form of cooperation as out
lined in the series of Sunday articles
in the Hearst papers by Merryle
Stanley Rukeyser, based on the ideas
of the late Dean Schneider Of the
University of Cincinnati engineering
school, is simply this:
That education in our colleges and
schools shall be taken out of the
domain of the abstract and made to
WORK.
THIS, as is already being exempi-
l. fled in many colleges throughout
the country, means the application of
book-learning to actual PRODUC-
TION.
The beneficial effects of this form
of educational cooperation on
character are clearly exemplified in
the following declaration by c. V.
Thomas, president Of Fem College,
at Cleveland, O.
THE combination of classroom
and laboratory experience along with
work experience motivates students,
provides them an opportunity to test
their interests and abilities in various
vOcationS, gives them experience in
learning how TO work with people.
