European conscription compared with American youth advantage
A discussion contrasts European mandatory military service with American opportunities for youth in business and state service. It notes conscription disrupts careers, handicaps skilled labor, and shapes a harsher industrial mindset in Europe, while America values a sound mind and body and pursues growth in horse breeding and related industries.

Admission to West Point Requires Public School Standards
Col. A L Milla, superintendent of the military academy at West Point, urges the secretary of war to empower entrance requirements that align with public school education. He notes current exams reflect early primary qualifications, while typical applicants are older than 14 1/2 and should have high school basics including algebra geometry. He argues for matching arithmetic and algebra and geometry in exams to what schools already provide, not increasing difficulty.
