After inspecting the sanitary conditions in military areas, with special reference to the spread of typhus and other infectious diseases, the members of the Interallied Medical Commission sent by the League of Red Cross Societies to study the typhus situation in Poland were conducted by Dr. Trenkner and Dr. Rajchman of the Polish Ministry of Public Health to typical districts under civil administration. The tour was effected in Ford cars, and the photograph shows a halt at a town near Cracow. The Commission found that the present epidemic of typhus was wide spread and the number of deaths enormous. The Polish Medical Authorities are carrying on as active a campaign against typhus as their resources permit, but they are terribly handicapped by the lack of soap, disinfectants, drugs, sheets, blankets, clothing and hospital equipment

America's youth builds and flies model planes on miniature flying fields.Two American boys give their giant model plane a running start at Kelly Field in the city of San Antonio in the southwestern U.S. state of Texas where members of the Gas Model Club do their weekly flying. The plane, which weighs eleven pounds, has a thirteen feet (3.9 meters) wing spread, and a wing area of twenty-four square feet (2.2 square meters) The plane will not take off by itself, but with a running start flies very successfully.When the U.S. government in 1941 called on model plane builders to turn out 800,000 scale model airplanes for use by the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Army, and civilian defense groups to train military and civilian personnel to recognize hostile and friendly aircraft, it was estimated that there were nearly three million American youths actively interested in aero-modeling. These young model builders put their experience to practical use by turning out models of fighters, scouts, fighter bombers, bombers, torpedo carriers, and commercial planes of the United Nations and of the enemy

America's youth builds and flies model planes on miniature flying fields. A member of the San Antonio Gas Model Club, which does its weekly flying at Kelly Field in the city of San Antonio in the southwestern U.S. state of Texas, proudly displays his amphibian model airplane, which has a six foot (1.8 meters) wing spread. When an earlier model crashed there was nothing left but one good wing. This young model enthusiast decided to build a new plane around it. He built an amphibian and turned out a perfect flying job. The plane is made of balsa wood covered with silk and waterproofing material. Like millions of other young Americans who make model building their hobby, this young man will be called upon to put his practical experience in aeronautics to use in the air-minded post war world
