Brisbane Sees Big Progress in Texas
famed writer Arthur Brisbane told about 600 at a San Antonio luncheon that Texas could feed the world if properly cultivated. He praised Randolph Field and air power, noting the many young Texans and the nation’s booming aviation industry as proof of progress and potential. He contrasted the Alamo with modern aviation’s frontier, predicting 10 000 Lindberghs at work on farms nationwide and saluting Texas leaders and educators. Brisbane arrived at Randolph Field, toured the base, and spoke before leaving for California.

Learning to Fly in the Army Air Program
Today planes train young men from West Point Annapolis and across the country to fly. The elimination process is severe yet necessary and just and those sent home are disappointed but not bitter. The army officers teach with patient precision and pride. If 10 000 pilots could be kept up to date in pursuit and bombing roles, the nation would be safer and cheaper than battleships. RFC funds could fuel the effort. See San Antonio and the air fields that belong to 123 000 000 Americans and be proud of the investment.
