"Hedgers."


Hedgers are folks who never come
'ut into the open. They are timid
souls who would like to run some
hing If they weren't afraid they might
make a mistake. Sometimes these
lwellers by the side have good ideas,
put they are afraid to air them. They
fear criticism and escape that incen-
i've to better effort il they possibly
IAN. SO they continue living in the
shade Of the hedges and never doing
anything to bring them into their best.
And because OF their peculiar thinking
md habits they are MOI even harmless.
such folks need a fire in the hedge or
something else that will make them be-
stir themselves, and DO things worthy
of men and the times.

Plane to Attack Warships
In Real Battle Off Coast
Fight for Supremacy Before Committee
ToDecide Armament Dispute

The battle probably would be staged
on the Middle Atlantic Coast.
Congressional action is necessary,
according to Mitchell, who says that
repeated requests to the Navy De-
partment for the obsolete battle
ship 70 make the test have been re-
fused
We want to demonstrate to the
committees of Congress what we can
do now and what We can DO with a
development OF aircraft and arma-
mert in the future" said Mitchell.
we want to show that the great
naval vessels with their thick armor
are helpless against an aerial at
tack by a comparatively small
force"
Want Real Test
Because Of MtcheITs confident
claims for the prowess Of the air
plane, Anthony and other members
believe that a conclusive test should
be made before any large additional
sums are authorized for the build
ing OF battleships or the continu-
snce of the present program.
One thousand sirplanes can be
built for the cost Of one battleship,
Mitchell claims, adding that for the
cost Of three battleships the United
States can have an aerial fleet that
would make it extremely dangerous
for any nation to attack the United
States by land or sea.
Mitchell also pointed out that
with poison gas developed to such
an extent that cities can be wiped
out by chemical compounds dropped
from sirplanes the greatest navy in
the world would be pOwerless to
prevent such an attack on the big
cities Of this country.
a strong submarine force also is
not necessary il the air force -
supreme" according to Mitchell.
You will find" he said, that
dollar for dollar you will get far
more from an air force than from
submarines, as an air force will
both protect sea communications
and destroy hostile vessels"
In addition to bombs the naval
vessels OF the future also will be
subjected to aerial torpedo attacks.
as the result OF which at least three
vessels we're sunk by the Germans
during the war, Mitchell said.
We have a complete project" he
said, Involving the use Of smoke,
gas and attack aviation.> to neu-
traliEe the effect OF an anti-aircrsft
attack and to destroy the ship. The
thickest deck we have to pierce 6
about three inches and even IL d.
rect hits are not made I'm many
cases the big ship would be put out
of commission. IL not destroyed"
Mitchell's views are causing a
stormy controversy both in army
and navy circles and at the Capitol.
Senator Borah next week will pre-
sent further information tending to
show immediate construction Of
more battleships is unwise from a
military viewpoint, while Senator
Gerry Of Rhode Island Will defend
the battleship.
