Post-Mortem at ‘Namru One’
Grand Canyon Village
One of the world’s strangest lo-
cations for a settlement is at the
bottom of Grand Canyon where
the Indian community of Supai.
Ariz., is located. A helicopter de-
livered parts for a quonset hut
used as a church there. The com-
munity post office is one of the few
to which United States mail is de-
livered by horse and mule.

Come in and see "The Car Designed With YOU in Mind”
Tt’s brand-new ... so new that there aren't many
-1- on the streets yet. But already it’s a tremendous
success. And it’s easy enough to see ivliy.
Everybody wants a smart, good-looking modern
car. But most of us don’t want to pay a penalty for
being modern. We want more room... more comfort
... more visibility... not less.
That’s where De Soto scores. It’s got those long,
low lines. But you don’t have to wriggle into it. It
has big wide doors. Plenty of headroom, too. The
roof won’t scrape your hat, no matter where you
sit. It’s roomier than ever.
It’s no use having bigger windows and windshields
-unless you can see out of them. In the new De Soto
you, can . . . because you’re sitting on chair-high
seats. Even a short person can see over the steering
wheel. Even a six-footer won’t hit his knees on it.
You don’t have to enlarge your garage to hold the
new De Soto. You can still change a‘ tire yourself.
And a dent in the fender doesn’t mean an expensive
body repair job. Come in and see this wonderful car
that lets you drive without shifting. Compare it with
any other at any price. Then decide.

HOW YOUR ARMY TRAINS
FOR BETTER CITIZENSHIP
Excerpts from an address by Brigadier General C. T. Lanham,
special assistant to the Chief of Staff, United States Army,
before the 28th Annual Meeting of the National Council for
Social Studies at Chicago.
In time of peace a free society regards its Army with distaste
and often with suspicion. This is normal, for an Army by its very
structure is the antithesis of everything held dear by a democratic
community. It is authoritarian; nor can it
compromise with that principle if it is to sur-
vive on the field of battle. Its leaders are
necessarily vested with great power and are
therefore constantly subject to the corroding
and corrupting influences that attend per-
sonal power. Its men, in their own interest
and in the national interest, must acquire the
habit of obedience or suffer for it, a process
unfavorably known as regimentation. And
finally, a free people do not relish in their
midst the incredible destructive power that is
unavoidably concentrated in the military
______ establishment—a power so vast, so awful that
the human mind staggers with disbelief in its
GEN. LANHAM presence. These then are the facts—facts that
the most skillful apolocrist can not evade. And
facts they shall remain so long as an infantile world society clings
to its tribal totems and invokes organized force as its ultimate
arbiter.
These very real fears have repeatedly led us in previous times
of peace to reduce our Army to a state of impotence, wall it up in
isolated and forgotten garrisons handed down from frontier days,
and then wipe it from our minds and, I am afraid, from our con-
sciences. An Army can not thrive on Burke's prescription for the
colonies—salutary neglect. An Army abandoned by the clergy,
ignored by education, pilloried by the press, and forsaken by the
civil community will inevitably degenerate professionally and rot
morally. This has happened before. We must not let it happen
again, for in addition to the social evils implicit in such miasmic
conditions, our military weakness invites external forces to destroy
the very values we had sought by this deliberate policy to safe-
guard.
Surely then, since Utopia has not yet arrived, we must support
and sustain an Army adequate to the evils of the day. And since
such an Army will of necessity embrace great numbers of our
young men, we must see that this substantial period of their lives
is not spent in a civic vacuum, in an educational wasteland, in a
moral slum. It is clear, therefore, that our obligation transcends
the traditional military concept that our sole duty is to provide the
Republic with a body of trained fighting men. With your help we
must provide those fighting men with a healthy mental, moral, and
social climate with full opportunity lor intellectual and civic growth.
We must return these young men to their communities not merely
as master journeymen in the deadly trade of war but as self-
respecting, mature citizens, strengthened by self-discipline and
fortified in the democratic faith by living and working with men of
all creeds, of all origins, of all economic and educational levels.
Thus, our broad objective is to produce a better soldier and at
better citizen, for the better the man as a citizen the better he is as
a soldier. Similarly, one of the objectives you pursue most passion-
ately is the development of a better citizen.
There s nothing better than hot crisp waffles with
lots of meltea creamy butter and syrup to perk
up tired appetites. 1 ake your waffle maker off the
shelf and surprise the entire family by serving
them tonight.
Your waffle maker is just one of many inexpen-
sive electrical conveniences designed to make
your work easier, your kitchen complete. And low
cost dependable electric service is always at hand
to help better your living.
So take that waffle iron, toaster or mixer off the
shelf... use them frequently and think about all
the comforts and conveniences of electric living.
