Talking Things Over With Laughton » Per lull Information i-imtait y«ur naaml VKTKKANS AOMINISTHATION uttice \ veteran who is drawing compensation or retirement pay is not receiving a pension, although there is a widespread misconception that these terms are synonymous. Actually Uncle Sam draws a fine line of distinction where these benefits are concerned. ni .ability compensation is a monthlj payment made by the Veterans Administration to an eligible veteran because of an injury or illness incurred in or aggravated by service in the Armed Forces. Anqther compensation payment generally confused with pension is that for death compensation, which may be paid to the dependents of a man who died in service or who died as a result of a service-connected disability after returning to civilian life. On the other hand, pension payments are made to Civil War and Spanish - American War veterans because of old age and infirmity and to veterans of both World Wars because of total and permanent disability which may not have any connection with their service. Dependents of a deceased veteran also may be eligible for a pension, under certain conditions, even though the veteran's death had no connection with his service in the Armed Forces. Service retirement pay may be granted to officers and enlisted, men leaving the active service in the Armed Forces after having served not less than 20 years or it may be awarded under certain conditions because of a disability incurred or aggravated while on active duty.

His explanation was that he was slal ioned-in Korea after the last war and didn't want to go back. By Richard Welling (Ed. Nolo: This article reprinted from Personal Growth Leaflet No. 99, published by National Education Association) In the College It is hard to think of a college in a democracy that does not. give its students a share in their own government. Democracy cannot he taught by merely talking about il Make every student a citizen under some form of government and give him a voice and a vote, reserving somewhere in the faculty a general supervision and veto power. Give this student body charge of all athletic affairs; of all delinqui of conduct; chapel, sanitation; cooperative store; college commons; college grounds; debates: celebrations, and the like. In the field of study begin by giving them author- iyt as to "cuts" from recitations, and then give them a voice and a vote—large or small as their fitness may warrant—in the matter of electives, prescribed work, and scholarship generally. In short, teach responsibility by giving responsibility. Opnosing Views Backward schools often feel that as long as I heir students are orderly, polite, and considerate, they do HEDDEN'S SYLVA, N. C.

However, when such students leave I, though they may continue lo he orderly, polite, and eoe ate, each will go his way and oul his own salvation, thinking that tovernment of this city and State and nation is to he left lo Ihe politicians. When he awakes lo the fact thai Ihe politicians are in the governing business for whai they can gel'onl of if, and he tries lo better conditions by interesting his neighbors and friends, he finds them preoccupied and apathetic. Pupil cooperation, on the other hand, seems to make every student alerl so thai he will be an alert citizen when he grows up. Opponents of ihe self-government idea object that student goVernmepi organizations have a had influence, thai they are essentially window- dressing in that pupils have no real authority, and that the effect is to play up the students who love the limelight; to (lie distraction and handicap of tbe more serious- minded who really wish to study. This criticism comes from those who regard the purpose1 of school as merely "scholarship" and who have forogtten that the whole community is taxed, not for scholarship, hut. according to the plans of Washington, Franklin, Jeffer- Devotes Inventions To Aiding Doctors CHICAGO Kenniston Root of South Pasadena, Calif, lias invented more I hail 500 devices lo aid the medical profession, according lo the Journal of Hie Anicrical Medical Association. Root developed these inventions in his home workshop. His own choice as best of the many useful instruments he has perfected, t In- Journal said, is a reversible eye magnet to extract metal objects from the eye without surgery. Root now is working on a device he hopes will aid victims of crippling infantile paralysis. Joe Drazenovich, older of two Penn State athletic greats, is a member of Ihe freshman football coaching staff at State. son, and other leaders who blazed the trail 150 years ago for a democracy to be founded upon a new kind of public education, namely- public schools to preserve the Republic by developing alert citizens. As Dr. William McAndrcw said: "The schools fell into the old rut of European scholarship standards, syntax, cube root, and other frills, and the democracy planned by the Fathers has not even been tried." WASHINGTON—If you wanted to fly across the country 20 years ago you traveled by airplane only in Hie daytime. At night you traveled by train in a connecting service. Then Transcontinental and Western Air began putting pas- rs in a hotel at Kansas City overnight and flying on the next day. Some of the people who flew the planes when that first all-air transcontinental service began in 1930 are still in the business.

Airliner pilots of 1930 took care of passenger comforts as well as the planes.

In those (lays pilots who didn't dress like a combination duck hunter and fullback were obviously "showing oil' and trying to make ihe |ob of (lying look easy"—which it wasn't, Twenty years ago pilots had to carry firearms because they carried the U. S. mail. Railroad mail car workers wore sidearms, and the fact lhat few highway men prowled the skyways meant nothing. "The pilots didn't mind," one recalls. "It was, as a matter of fact, a welcome touch to point up the superman idea with which the airmen were credited. That is, to all cxcei)| one pilot. "Going into New York from Newark airport one day, he was seized upon by the police and charged with carrying firearms in violation of Ihe Sullivan act. It took Ihe airline- company, the Post Office Department and no end of trouble to shake him loose." Wife Burned Up and So Was Husband's Truck .

It was all legal, however. It happened because somebody had lost the key to the door which led to the court clerk's office. The judge delayed court proceedings 3(1 minutes while a locksmith, Willis Klein, picked the lock.
