Duvis, secretary ot war, is to
be. -congratulated., on happier
conditions in the army, : as
proved by the great jjierense in
rc-enlistment. Men, once in the
army, want to stay there.
The nation has two schools
Jfor training , officers, West
Point and Annapolis. Why not
make the army itself n -great
training school , for fliers';
Young men all want. to fly, no
higher mathematics, - Greek or
Latin, is necessary, only a fly
ing machine and an intelligent
tiiicher. ;
Fliers should get extra pay.
From the anny they should be
graduated to commercial fly
ing, and especially to postqf
ficc flying. That is the way to
make army life attractive, and
Useful to the 3iation. One thou
sand fliers might be worth
many millions of dollars to this
country. . . ': . ;
