The Army embraces character guidance councils from top to bottom to mold youth into citizens with self respect and moral fiber. A broad recreation program at Fort Riley and Fort Ord expands facilities and activities, while a teacher-student approach replaces the old officer-soldier model to foster intelligent following and mutual respect.

Grants in aid shaped the federal aid program history
A survey of the grants in aid from the early 1800s through fiscal 1949 traces the growth from Morrill act endowments to modern aid. It notes totals of 1.85 billion to states and local governments and 3.04 billion to individuals, with major programs like old age assistance, unemployment, highways, and school lunch among the largest. The piece discusses matching funds, regional differences, and the political debate about welfare. It highlights veterans as a primary recipient category and lists several major and smaller programs driving the expansion.
