Unknown Soldier and American Injustice in Washington
A charged denunciation recalls the Unknown Soldier and condemns Washington's treatment of returning veterans.

A two-eyed Kirbys camera at Los Angeles records runners crossing the tape and shows the clock time on film at one hundredth second precision. Developed by Bell Telephone Laboratories, it provides a photographic finish order and eliminates human error while official stop watches remain for record. The system uses a tuning fork clock at 200 cycles per second, synchronized by a vacuum tube oscillator and a synchronous motor.
