u.s.. AIR FORCE
TOO SMALL FOR
MEXICO INVASION

WASHINGTON, August 23.-The
American air force has been reduc-
cd so greatly since the signing of
the arnistice that it is too small to
maintain an expedition into Mexico, i"
Rrig. Gen. William Mitchell, direct
or of military aeronautics, told the
House Rules Committee this week.
He urged that Congress take i'm
mediate action, particularly in view
Of the Mexican situation, to prevent
what he termed ''the complete dis
integration" of air service by lack
Of appropriations and an apparent
failure of high War Department
officials to realize the Importance of
aviation as fighting branch of the
service.
SIN view of the possibility of inter
yention in Mexico" Gen. Mitchell
said. sit is imperative that the air
service be kept up to it war time
standards of efficiency.
"If we should go to Mexico now
we have the skeletons of seventeen
souadrons. Twelve hundred Offic-
ers are not enough to keep them up;
we need twice as many. That num-
her is too small even to maintain
an expedition to Mexico.
every inch of the Mexican bor-
der is patrolled daily by the air serv-
ice. and we are sending large
share of our fiers and equipment
available there. There has not been
a single invasion across the border
since this patrol started. Bandits
can be more easily run down with
an adequate air force.
Only $50 u. S. Aviators.
From the standpoint of our future
military policy it is certain the air
service should never be smaller than
it is today. We now have only seven
teen skeleton squadrons and $50 &C
tual fiers. We have already lost
many of our best officers on account
of the pathetic attitude toward the
development and maintenance of avl-
alton. l can safely say that we have
been able to hold on to many of our
best fiiers to the present time on ac-
count of their expectation that Con-
gress would put this branch of the
army on it's feet by providing for a
permanent air service"
General Mitchell made plea be-
fore the committee for the assign
ment of 1920 emergency officers to
the air service, with the provision

that 50 per cent be actual fiiers. The
bill previously considered by the
House Military Affairs Committee
provided for $4,000 permanent and
emergency commissions in the army,
under which it was planned to allow
only 1900 temporary air officers and
increase the number Of medical Of
ticers. The number of officers allow
ed in the army appropriation bill,
members now feel, was too small.
Gen. Mitchell strongly advocated
the combination of all aerial activi-
ties of the government in one serv-
ice, including the work CT the army,
navy, post office and other govern
ment departments.
Urges Single Service.
Single air services are being main
tanned abroad, and much better re-
suits are being accomplished" Gen.
Mitchell, who has seen air service in
Europe, said.
Although reluctant to criticse the
General Staff, General Mitchell said
he did not believe its plan for the
reorganization of the army gave avi-
alton the importance it deserved. The
plan does not put aviation on an
equality with infantry, artillery or
calvary, but would make an auxiliary
wing. thus undermining morale, he
claimed.
The United States, he said, as a
matter of nationalanl defence, should
consider what other nations are do
ing.
at is to be considered that Eng
land and France are demobilizing
very little of their air services" he
said, !" and it must be remembered
that while a novice can be taught to
shoot a musket in an emergency a
real military flier cannot be turned
out in less than five months at the
least.
"Our skilled Tiers today have train
ing that would have been impossible
to obtain under peace conditions.
Manv of them know actual battle con-
ditions, and should be kept as nu-
cleus for the peace time organization.
It would take three years to replace
the present equipment we have, and
| am sure Congress does not wish to
compel us to junk it.
