What about these bombing planes
Germany is supposed 10 be using-ths ones

'Nonsensev' said the captain. That story
Is just a foolish newspaper yarn, probably
coined IN the heated Imagination OF some re-
porter at the front First, since most bomb
ing IS done at night. there is no need for
eight men. Their weight could be taken up
by so many pounds of explosives. The only
need for several gInners in a bombing plane
Is during daylight
