U S Soldiers to Do Less Saluting in War Department Move
Washington reports that the War Department approved reducing salutes for American soldiers except on frosts overseas and at special dress events. The Doolittle board proposal to drop terms like officers and enlisted men was rejected, with soldiers remaining the proper label. Alexander de Seversky elected mayor of Ashercken Village with 23 of 40 votes.
