U. S. Armed Strength
Now Totals 100000

WASHINGTON. - The United
States-just little more than a
year since Japan's surrender
has 100000 men under arms.
The war machine which helped
crush Germany and beat Japan
now is down to about sixth of
its peak fighting strength. And it
is going to shrink some more
during the next nine months.
On September l., 1945, the
United States had approximately
IL, 100000 men in uniform. BY
June 80 next, the armed forces
are slated to drop to around l.
615, 200 and to stay close to that
level.
The armed forces are count
ing, however, on maintaining
trained reserves of several mil
lion men.
Despite the comparatively
small size of the armed forces,
they still are considerably larger
than before the war, when the
army and navy together mus
tered less than 100000 men.

Erosion Raids Take High Toll

vigilance is a must if our greatest
farm asset-soil fertility-is to be
preserved DR.. Bennett insists.
'"The recent wartime burden on
farm land to produce record
yields to speed victory has been
succeeded by an equally heavy
peacetime load to produce crops to
meet the worldwide food crisis" >"
the soil improvement group de-
clares, adding that ''the only rem
edy that will rescue overworked
farm land from eventual fertility
exhaustion is a program of effec-
tive soil rebuilding"
Pointing out that any soil rehabili-
tating plan should be well-rounded,
the committee says it should include
the raising of legumes to improve
soil tilth and to increase it's re-
sources of organic matter, regular
crop rotation, steady use of mixed
fertilizer containing nitrogen, phos-
phorus and potash, and pasture
improvement.

Dentist Has Offices in
Cities $500 Miles Apart

BOSTON. - Air-minded DR.. Isaac
Gerson of Cairo, Egypt, believes
that his is the dental practice Of
the future. He is a practicing den.
tist in two cities-5, 800 miles apart
Gerson first came to Boston in
1923 to attend Harvard Dental
school. He returned to Cairo the fol
lowing year to begin practicing, and
had been making periodic journeys
from one city to the other for some
years when he decided to maintain
an Office in both.
Recently completing his third
fight of the year between the cities,
he plans to stay in Boston until
February. After that he says he
will alternate practices at six
month intervals. His patients
include the royal family of King
Farouk of Egypt.
He is married and has two chill
dren-a girl born in Boston and a
boy born in Cairo.

u. S. Divorce Rate
Climbs to New Peak
One in Three Marriages on
Rocks. Report Says.

WASHINGTON. - One American
family broke up for every three
approximately ~ that were formed
last year, federal security agency
reveals.
More than 502, 900 marriages end
ed in divorce courts in 1945, an all.
time record representing a 25.5 per
cent rise over the previous peak
divorce year, 1914,
The divorces were 81 per cent OF
the marriages, which totaled l.
618, 331 last year or about 81 per
cent below Cupid's biggest year.
1912.
FSA's study, the first federal
reporting of divorce statistics, gen.
orally steers clear of interpreta-
ton save to show that both mar.
riage and divorce rates rise with
prosperity, wartime or otherwise,
and fall with depression.
''The marriage rate is the more
sensitive of the two, since a mar
riage contract can be entered into
more readily than it can be dis
solved" FSA observes.
For lonely hearts there are few
clues except this: The marriage
rate is consistently higher in the
West and South than in the rest of
the country.
''The South and the West are seen
to be competing for first place,
with the South leading six years out
of the last nine. The West, how
ever, provided the highest annual
rate for any region when it reached
1875 (for each 1000 population) in
1912"
The divorce rate has nearly
doubled in nine years, FSA report
ed. Fairly steady at 1.9 divorces
per 1000 population in 1937-39, it
climbed to 3.6 in 1945.
The ratio of divorces to marriage
also scared from 17.8 divorces per
100 marriages to the 1945 total Of
81 divorces per 400 marriages.
Except for the depression years,
the divorce curve in the United
States has gone up virtually with
out interruption since the first esti.
mate-72, ,062-was made in 1906.
Arizona sun., 1946-10-25

CHICAGO. - Erosion's raids on
soil fertility are costing the United
States nearly four billion dollars an
nually. according to the Middle West
Soil Improvement committee.
''The extent of this yearly dam
age is indicated by recent U. S.
Soil Conservation service estimates
that wind and water erosion re-
moves 81 times as much plant food
from the nations farm soil each
year as is taken out by crops
sold off that land" the committee
reports.
DR.. H. H. Bennett, chief of the
conservation service, places the an
nual loss as result of uncontrolled
erosion and water runoff at 1874
OOO,O00. He estimates that nearly
one billion acres of the nations
farm lands need soil conservation
treatment to protect them from ero-
sion and to maintain their produc-
tivity.
It is clearly evident that eternal

Red Feather Flown as Symbol
In Social Service Fund Drives
Badge Is Beacon
OfHope To Sick,
Weary, Homeless

For centuries the red feath-
er has been accepted as a
badge of courage and gener-
osity. Robin Hood awarded
red feathers to his followers
for heroic and generous
deeds; outstanding Indian
braves often were the recipi-
ents of red feather awards for
feats of valor and acts of
kindness.
This year, in cities throughout the
United States, the Red Feather will
mean hope for the sick, homeless
and friendless. Community Chests of
the country have adopted the Red
Feather to designate services to Or
phans, the aged, the blind, crippled
children and the sick.
In previous years the welfare fund
raising organizations from coast to
coast have been known by vari-
ETY. Of names and their symbols
have been many and varied. In 1946,
for the first time, practically all of
them are known as Community
Chests and all fly the Red Feather.
Many Join Movement.
Last year, 849 cities in the coun-
try raised close to quarter billion
dollars through community fund
raising campaigns. These cities
each conducted single campaign to
raise funds to support multiple well
fare agencies.
1t was in Cleveland, Ohio,
that the Community Chest plan
was born in 1913. A group of
Cleveland business men, aware
of the many fund drives held
each year and of the vast sums
spent annually to raise money
for welfare purposes, evolved
a plan to budget the city's wei
fare needs and to hold one cam
paign annually to obtain the
money to meet these needs.
Before Cleveland held the first
Community Chest campaign, 5000
persons were contributing money
for welfare purposes. During the
1945 Community Chest campaign,
100000 residents of Greater Cleve-
land made pledges to support 100
home front agencies and % units of
the national war fund.
Support 100 Agencies.
This year, the Cleveland Commu-
nifty Chest is campaigning in Octo-
ber for a goal of 81, $50, 900. Proceeds
will be used for the support of 100
Red Feather agencies, including
21 youth and recreation groups, 10
organizations aiding dependent chill
dren, II hospitals, IA family well
fare services and other welfare or
ganizations.
Throughout the nation, the story of
the Red Feather is being told as
Community Chests wage their an

Chicago, which has the largest
Community Chest fund in the ma
ton, has a goal of $780, 900 in the

of the operating costs of 1872 Red
Feather agencies. An additional
$685. is sought to continue USO
activities for the final year.
One of the main detectives Of
Community Chests is to assure
good start in life for all chill
dren. Red Feather youth agen-
cies universally strive to pre-
pare the boys and girls of today
for their responsibilities as citi-
zens of tomorrow.
To carry out this objective, Phila-
delphia, for example, will allot the
largest percentage of its campaign
funds, more than 20 per cent, to its
Red Feather youth recreation serv-
ices and another II per cent to its
child care agencies. Last year, the
city's 80 Red Feather youth agen-
cies served more than 1914 boys
and girls and provided 1883 days
in camps.

FARRAGUT, IDAHO.-In an at
tempt to crack the national bottle
neck in educational facilities, par
ticularly for ex-G.I.s, education-hun-
cry veterans have opened their own
college here.
At the site of the sprawling naval
training station here, the veterans
opened a privately operated, non
profit, co-educational college and
technical institute this month.
When the navy declared the huge
training station surplus, veterans
organizations went into immediate
action. They saw the stations vast
dormitories, apartments, class
rooms, laboratories, machine shops
and recreational facilities as the an
swer to two major veterans prob

ties and housing accommodations
while attending school.

Backed by local business men, en-

partment of education and other

cations in north Idaho and eastern
Washington formed a private non
profit corporation. They called it
Farragut College and Technical In
stitute, Inc, and set out to raise an
initial operating fund of $250,000.
Veterans groups plunked down
sums like $4,000 and $4,000 to start
the ball rolling. Private clubs and
individual citizens came across. The
veterans hired a college president,
DR.. Joseph H. Kusner, formerly of
Florida, who is a veteran. He
rounded up a faculty.
