DEARBORN, MICH - When 1ts huge buildmg program got under way the Navy faced another huge problem the trammg of men m the highly technical duties which crews are called upon to perform

The existing naval trammg sta tJons were already full Turning to 1ndustry Navy officials found that the Henry Ford T1"ade School, situated m the heart of the Ro,1ge plant was perfectly swted to such trw.nmg

Henry Ford not only offered the fac1hties of both school and plant to the Navy for this pur pose, but also said he would build barracks for 1200 students1 mess hall for 2000 admmtstration bwlding, prov1s1on storage, recre­ation room, athletic: field, a lteam generating plant.

The offer was accepted, aotl on December 6, 1940 the first shovel of earth was turned on the bank of the Rouge River Forty days later the firat contingent took up quarters in the newly erected bmld1ngs The Inauguration cere­monies were descnbed by Com mander C P Cectl as ' uruque m the history of th,.. Umted States Navy-for we are dedicating the first Navy Service School evel" to be operated m connection with civtl•an industry"

With naval officers: on tM out door platform beside him, and 200: enltsted men drawn up 1n

front of tbe school'• admiru.stra­tion buildmg Heney Ford said that 'i:Dunng the present cnsi11

our orgarure.tion wants to do everythmg possible to help Amenca and the Pre$1dent The Navy being our first ltne of de­fense I feel that the trammg of these young men will vitally benefit our nanoo And, when thia

ln turnmg the facillties of school and plant over to the Navy for trsurung personnel Edsel Ford explained that his father had established U1e Henry Ford Trade School 24 years ago

because he believed m usmg the facilities of the Ford Motor Com pany for sometbmg more than the bwldmg of motcr vehicles He believed that these faethties could also be used for the bwld mg of youth"

Rear Admiral C W N1m1tz wno came from Washington to repre-­sent Secretary Knox, accepted the fae1httes of school and plant ' I can think of no better place for th.ts extemnon of the Navy tram. mg program," he declared "I wu;:h, Mr Ford, to express to you the apprecaation of the Navy Depart ment for this fine demonstration of patriotism on yom part."

The new Navy Service School will be under the administration of Rear Admiral John Downes Commandant of the Ninth Naval D1strict, which mcludes 13 states and has headquarters at Great Lakes, Illmots

After explaining that the men to be tramed here come from both the Pacific end the Atlantic, as well as the Great Lakes, he added 'We know that Mr Ford has here established tbe finest school in the world for trammg men in the mecherucal trades This will be the most nnportant trainmg center that the Navy ha11

Military Training Beneficial 1' o Youth of Country-

The same old problem of big cash for the organized 25 cords of wood for the church at ·worlier and the low monthly wage for the soldier in camp is I their "bee" in Henry Spaulding's 'here again. While the present draft law had to be put to- w~ods last Saturday. .

th · h 't · b · · d &me one entered the ·C. H. W1l-,ge er m a urry 1 1s ecommg more an more apparent bur home last sunda night and that the country must eventually adopt compulsory military took $9 from Mr. W:ifuur's pocket training as a fixed .national policy, to avoid unhealthy dis- while the family sleJr!, crimination. This is going to be true, especially if the fear of Twenty-three members of. the foreign dictators continues. Governor Wilbur M. Brucker R.ebekah lodge enjoyed a chicken 'backed b d' d · pie dmner Wednesday at the home . y an outstan mg war recor of his own - and the of MT and Mrs George Rhines :father of a son of draft age at an early date - is urging near Onondaga. · ' •compulsory training for all youth. Here is a pungent para­:irraph from Governor Brucker's article in Sunday's Free Preas: * • * Military training in the public schools has in my opinion, a definite educational value. It quickens the :sense of precision and begets a habit of concentration. It -improves the physical condition and health of our youth by ;putting the corrective finger on physical disabilities and ·:Jb.9rtcomings in time tv ro;;medy tht:iiii :if pu.ssible. It ·strengthens his muscles, straightens his shoulders and gives 'liim an ei-ect bearing. It teaches neatness, orderliness, punctu­

. :aiity, accuracy and alertness. It produces a discipline that tends to accept responsibility. Many times this is precisely the WfJ-Y for a boy to get over his softness and self indul­gence. * • • Then it must be remembered that military training in the schools is of incalculable value to the nation. "'1.e safety of the nation requires it and must depend upon it. It produces better citizens with some appreciation of the sacrifices that are required daily to maintain our Democracy. Youth learns that there is a higher interest than its own selfish pursuits. It seems to me that all young men ought to give this much service at least to their own country in re­turn for the protection they receive. Certainly these young :men, Who enjoy the boundless opportunities of education at the expense of society, assume the duty of being worthy and qualified leaders in any crisis.

''I get Ooutile Range Anti-Knock!"

Every motorist 'knows that there are two important ranges of acceleration where highest anti-knock perform· ance ~s needed. For example, y9u need knockless power.at 10 to 45 ,miles per hour for acceleration in traffic and 45 to 90 miles per hour for pasJiing other cars and climbing hills. Some gasolines may give higl\ anti-knock in one range but not in the other. But the new Sinclair H·C combines high anti'!knock performance in both ranges. With the

Double-Range anti-knock in H-C you also get other remarkable qualities in performance. You get quick starting-: rapid pick-up-smooth power-and long mileage.

Try a complete tankful of the new Double-Range H-C in your car today. Your nearby Sinclair dealer sells it at regular price. You will find it adds to the pleasure of driving and helps reduce motoring expense as well! Ask for the new Sinclair H-C.
