There will be no military course involved, simply the rudiments of flying. School authorities will select candidates first, whose number will later be decreased by on the part of army surgeons who eliminate men not having a reasonable chance of meeting the air corps medical requirements. The instruction course differs materially from that now required for private pilot's license, but at the end of about 35 hours instruction each student is expected to be able to pass the tests for this license. " An program will probably b.e instituted later to bring graduates back for periodic training. From this huge reservoir of private fliers the army could expand its regular air service tremendously in an emergency. Gives Industry a Boost. There is a second, and allied purpose behind the President's program. America's aviation industry cannot thrive on government support alone. It is hoped that many of the 20,000 new pilots trained each year will eventually buy their own private planes. As a further incentive to airplane manufacture the President is assisting in the sale of American-mad- e planes military abroad, a program which does not end meet with the dorsement of congress since it may be interpreted as constituting an entangling alliance.

Mechanical hoists have been erected to lift sportsmen to the hilltop after they've descended. Special instruction classes are being held for children and grown ups, and wayside inns attract countless skiers for respite over a cup of steaming tea or coffee. Why this thrilling and exhilarating sport should have remained in comparative obscurity so many years is a great American mystery. It originated in Norway and has long been practiced by Norwegians living in this country. Back in their native land these Norsemen learned to ski almost before they learned to walk.

Above, three students in the school that rebuilds smashed planes from the ground up learn about airplane engines. over President Roosevelt's program will center about one question: Is a greatly expanded national air force justified? The negative side of this argument holds that we are protected from Europe and Asia by two ocean barriers, that no bombing plane yet tried out can cross one of these oceans with a full load of bombs. It maintains that the army and navy are the backbone of defense, therefore our money should be spent strengthening these branches. It maintains that the President's program to construct several thousand new planes would cost millions of dollars which could better be spent on slum clearance, education, housing and other benetits needed by the Finally, it claims that current war talk is simply propaganda designed to create public hysteria and divert attention away from our economic plight. Says U. S. Is Vulnerable. But there is also much to be said on the other side. Major Al Williams, noted aviator and writer, claims that Germany, Britain and Italy already have planes which can cross the Atlantic with a full load of bombs. He says nothing about their returning after the bombing is accomplished, but a foreign power might be willing to risk loss of several planes to gain its end. Major Williams also maintains that guns are ineffective over 10,000 feet, therefore they would prove an inadequate defense. Other "pro plane" arguments contend that the air superiority of four other world powers is enough justification for trying to overcome our inferiority. Speaking only of its civilian pilot program, the CAA sums up the administration's entire aviation argument quite conclusively: "Only by such an approach can the United States adequately safeguard itself against the vast aerial expansion programs now being pressed with fanatic zeal by foreign powers . . It is more in keeping with the American spirit of preparedness to build up a great pool of men and machines, dedicated to and engaged in but everyday business and yielding first place to no othpr nation in flying skill or technual development, and quickly adaptable to military needs in the event of war." That's one side of the story. You'll probably hear the other side from congress. d. anti-aircra- The industrial side of skiing is reflected in testimony of manufacturers of ski clothing, who have reported increased business annually since 1932.

Mothers must, however, guard bread-stuff- s against loss of interest in bv various members of their families, as a result of monotony. Luckily, there is no reason why this should occur in any home. For it is possible to provide bread-stuff- s in such a variety that the same kind need not be served twice in succession within the space of one or two weeks. You can add variety to the diet by preparing bread from graham, whole wheat or rye flour. Rolls can be made from plain or sweet dough. Some of the more popular are Parker House rolls, sandwich rolls, finger rolls, cinnamon buns, butterscotch rolls and pecan rolls.

Breadstuffs, or other foods made from grain, are undoubtedly the largest single item in the dietary of the majority of people throughout the world. They appear in some form at almost every meal. And they are also highly satisfactory as a lunch for rapidly growing school chil-- l dren. Breadstuffs are notable for their energy values and for their case of digestion. They contain some protein and minerals, and under some circumstances, they may also carry other significant food values. Bread and rolls combine well with milk, cheese, butter and meat. They make good eating and give a comfortable feeling of satisfaction afterwards. Such simple combinations as bread and cheese, or rolls and milk, are highly effective in satisfying hunger.

To test his plan Mr. Roosevelt has air-train- breakfasts 'gestive long-rang- equipment than England, France, Italy, Russia and Germany. But every world aviation power has one thing in common a shortage of pilots. And every nation has made frantic efforts to solve this problem. In Germany, where the Versailles treaty completely wiped out aviation, shrewd national planners popularized the sport of gliding. As a result the Reich developed a huge army of youth who form the backbone of its huge modern air force. In Italy a comprehensive pilot training program has been in progress several years. In Russia much ado has been made over taking youngsters aloft and allowing them to bail out in parachutes, thereby becoming air minded. Great e inBritain has offered struction to anyone who will take up aviation. Even so, every world power needs pilots desperately. And the ominous warning to the United States from experience of other nations is that civilian training is expensive in life and limb. Germany and Italy have suppressed accurate reports of fatalities among student pilots, but the toll is known to be enormous. 13 Schools Listed.
