our armed forces, the way to find it for the future sure ain't contained in Defense Secretary Louis Johnson's latest request to Congress. That would be to set up a separate boarding school for fliers: A West Point or Annapolis of the Air. Sure we need some facilities for the bird boys, but the creation of in extra old school tié rivalry among the existing closed military shops. just tips a ‘ittle more fat-on the fire of intramural jealousy.

i's. the Law of the Herd

THIS MIGHT sound =illy and I guess it is silly, but at last look the associations formed in tender years at the military academies are stronger than common sense, stronger than patriotism, stronger than honesty- or decency or competence. It is a a law of the herd, and no regular military man

out'of Anfiapotis can deny IC 13 in hia heart, This comes from earliest indoctrination, ‘and is burned deeply into the virgin brains of the farmer-lads who fetch their fresh faces to the war academies. From. the first plebe day, heavy stress is placed on the value of banding together against a hostile civilian world; a hostile rival service, a united front against a peacetime, cheese-paring Congress. The catechism says that the warrior's only reward comes in wartime, and

- that the greater his personal domination in the

field of war, the greater his personal reward. It's an unhealthy view, in the modern concept of war, for it makes possible the existence of the bumbling incompetents, like my old friend Courthouse Lee, who managed to freeze the feet off countless men because of his inadequacies as a supply chief. “Lee was a boon friend of Brehon Somervell, the boss supply man-—a friendship dating back before World War I. Likewise, it breeds the blind bird dogs in the

Rich Old Girl

WASHINGTON, financiers were talking about. Fanny May. They didn’t indicate - whether she was a blond or a brunette, but she céttainly sounded like the girl for me. The richest lady there ever was. Was it true, inquired Sen. J. Allen Frear Jr, ARAL Fanny May plunked down $100 million in cash to buy up first mortgages? $ It certainly .was. Fanny ‘stuck ’em in her garter and then last week she bought $80 million™. more. In fact, said James L. Dougherty, general counsel of the Reconstruction Finance Corp. he wouldn't be surprised if Fanny May kept on buying mortgages at the rate of $50 million’ a week,

Bitter Disappointment THE MORE they talked about Fanny. May, the more interested I became, but the gentlemen didn’t identify her further. The official stenographer, who couldn't stand the suspense, finally had to blurt: “Who is this. Fanny May?” I regret to report that she. turned out to be a little-known government corporation, the Federal National Mortgage Association. “The FNMA,” said Harvey J: Gunderson, ome of the directors. “Fanny May, FNMA... Get it?” This ‘was a grave disappointment to me and the stenographer, but we got it. So sexless though my-story-must- be, I think youll be interested in. Fanny May. She's. a subsidiary of the RFC and her job Is to buy from the banks the 4 per cent mortgages insured by the Federal Housing ‘Administration. The banks take the money, issue more mortgages on more houses, and so on until Fanny is using more cash than the RFC has in the till,
