Thus, the first idea of those who

1t means that within few hours,
giant airplanes leaving Berlin could
come and drop on Paris, tons Of
bombs If we were disarmed and we
would let the Germans rebuild their
aerial war material, under the pre-
text Of making commercial airplanes,
nothing would prevent them from
putting us within two days in a
frigiltful condition Without even
waiting an official declaration of war
hundreds of giant tirplanes would
come and set Paris afire. And the
future war, if it happened, would be
immensely more murderous than the
one preceding because much mo,e

necessary condition would be that I
there existed in Paris apparatus PIE
yiously installed to receive the order.
Whatever is the thing that is to be
done between one place distant from
another, there must be a receptive

execute it.
