selves. There is bickering in the business, criticism by other medical men, and a broad national tend~ency to paint the soul-prober as a voodoo doctor with a.pointed hat, or head. > These are not my words, although they reflect a8 long and deep-felt sentiment. They are the measured cadences of Dr. C. Charles Burlingame, a 40-year specialist in the profession and one of the most respected of the-craft. Iman editorisi . in the house organ of the Institute of Living, of which Dr. B. is president, he says: « “Psychiatry has now reached the peak of public interest, and a great part of that interest, being } neither laidatory nor desirablé; is.out of harmony i with fame that springs from public approval and confidence. Not only the sharp nittes of criticism, but also the hiss of ridicule, are sounding in many quarters, ; “Not a week goes by that some jest is not poked at one psychiatric technique or another by cartoonists, or’ comedians, or otherwise more or . less serious news commentators. Even in our own field of medicine, psychiatry is being severely criticized for what other medical men call ‘highly doubtful’ theories and ‘questionable’ practices.

Losing Confidence

3 “SOME physicians are bluntly accusing psychi- |§ - atrists of departing into the domain of philosophy, ~ 3 : sociology and politics to the extent of forsaking ff the field of medicine. It is manifest that we are losing public confidence and of more immediate importance : . . of nonpsychiatric physicians. . . . “Yet at this time of psychiatry’s greatest need, peychiatrists themselves are more disunified and their efforts more diffuse than ever before. Now, as never before, we need BALANCE and RESERVE and MUTUAL TOLERANCE among ourselves in a quest for the understanding of the emotions. , . .” (The caps are Doc Burlingame's, not mine.) This is the sum of a sharp reprimand to his fellows, and it has been a long time coming. The excellent—even wonderful—-work that has been

Flying Stripes

By Harman W. Nichols

ug | WASHINGTON, Apr." 15—The captain looked bo thotghtfully through a smoke ring he had just blown.

The “flying sergeants” he said were quite a gang. Tough as they come. Tough as the spéedy little P-38's they flew.” Men who -loved to get their shoes off the ground. ; * What's left of the “flying sergeants” who eventually became the 82d Fighter Group are in town today for their first reunion. The boys, that is, who weren't doing something more im‘portant like helping operate the Berlin airlift. Capt. Emory C. (8lick) Morgan, an old enlisted man himself, told me about the boys. You might remember some of the story. Three and a half months before Pearl Harbor, a class of 200 privates, corporals and sergeants shocked the hide-bound traditionalists of the Army Air Corps by climbing into_ planes and beginning flight trainihg. Up to that time only aviation cadets ‘had been accepted. But by that time somebody has sé€en the hand-writing on the wall,

faster fighter jobs. : Because:all other pilots wore the bars of offiJ 5 cers, a rank of ‘staff Jergeant pilot was created for thé FIIving sergeants.” : Of the original 200, only 97 of them finished their schooling and many of them are still in service—-all us officers. : : Graduation day created somewhat of a fuss, Capt. Slick Morgan said. One technical sergeant had to be busted to staff sergeant so he could

get his wings because staff sergeant was the only rating promised to the men. Time was wasting and there weren't enough scissors around to snip through the red tape. | “Because a lot. of army brass didn't know what the ‘flying sergeants were up to” the captain said, “we had a lot of other trouble.”
