GI's To Study Courtesy Like Officer Candidates
Washington—(U.P.)-The service brass figured some GI taste runs to reading comic books, so why not throw some learning at the GT's via that simple medium?
The brass has come up with a little Jim-Dandy called "Military Courtesy."
The cover is a flag-waver, with Old Glory in the background and two soldiers standing on either side of a cute little WAC with blue hair. All at stiff attention, hands raised in salute.
The first inside page, logically, is on the salute. It shows the boys how and says in effect that the smart one who finally becomes an expert saluter gets that way by practicing in front of a mirror.
In another salute section, a lot of "sever-nevers" are illustrated with funny drawings.
One of the "nevers" is never salute while on a dead run. It's bad manners, for one thing. The GI also runs the risk of stubbing his boot and maybe busting his neck.
Other rules which make medium grade soldiers good ones and keep them out of the reservation jailhouse are:
When standing in line waiting for the monthly pay, salute BEFORE
you're paid—not afterwards. In civilian life you thank the man after you've counted the change.
A man doesn't have to drop everything and salute an officer if he happens to be carrying a duffle in each hand and is loaded with a barracks bag strapped on his back. All this would waste the officer's time and put the GI in an awful tizzy.
Non-commissioned officers are a noble clan and deserve all kinds of respect unless you want kitchen police, but you don't have to dignify them with a salute. They have enough dignity as it is.
How did this saluting business begin? Seems that among primitive peoples, raising empty hands to a stranger indicated that you weren't about to shoot him dead.
Better comics for better soldiering!

Press Conference Starts In New York
New York—(U.P.)More than 400 editors and publishers of newspapers in the Americas opened a week-long Interamerican Press conference at the Waldorff Astoria this week.
It marked the first time that newspaper executives in this hemisphere have met in the United States since the Pan American Press conference in Washington in 1926.
The conference was convened by Tom Wallace, editor emeritus of the Louisville Times, Louisville, Ky. On the agenda as the first order of business was consideration of a new constitution, written by the Pan American Press conference in Quito, Ecuador, last year.
The constitution proposes formation of the Inter American Press association on a hemisphere-wide basis to protect the freedom of the press throughout America.
The Inter American Press association also would encourage uniform standards of professional and business conduct, exchange ideas and information, protect members from "irresponsible acts and legislation" and "work collectively for the solution of common problems and for the preservation of the peace and tranquility of the new world."
In addition to consideration of the new constitution, the delegates will hold panel discussions on various phases of the newspaper industry.

CO's Say Larger ROTC Due To Korean War
The University's reserve officer training corps in the three branches of the service represented on the campus—army, air force, and navy—have almost doubled their number this fall over that of 1949.
The biggest share of the increase is credited to the air force R.O.T.C. Its enrollment more than doubled from 219 last year to 532 this fall. The army R.O.T.C. stands at 255, up from 197 a year ago. The naval R.O.T.C. has 188 midshipmen compared to 148 last year.
The cadets and midshipmen now have 975 men instead of the 564 listed in 1949. All enrollments are voluntary. There is no compulsory freshman-sophomore military training at K.U. as at land grant schools.
The Korean war has been a big
factor in the increasing enrollment in the R.O.T.C., the commanding officers agree. However the larger corps are not due to students seeking deferment from the draft. Although a portion of the cadets and midshipmen may be deferred from selective service, they only postpone their terms of service.
Strong hall was named to honor Dr. Frank Strong, who served as chancellor of the University from 1902 to 1920.
