AIR ATTACK

plane Bombs to be Con-
sidered by Experts

NORFOLK, Va, July 22:-With
the former German dreadnought
Ostfriesland at the bottom Of the
Atlantic as the result of a one-ton
aerial bomb exploding alongside of
her, naval experts of this and other
countries will turn their attention to
the problem of protecting the capital
ship from this form of attack. Since
present day aircraft carry bombs
contain more than three times the
amount of TINT enclosed in a torpe-
do for the large mines, high paval
officers, who observed the bombing
of the vessel off the Virginia capes,
lean to the view that the solution
lies in keeping control of the air.
Construction of a hull which would
weather explosions alongside of such
force was regarded as almost impos-
sible.
Naval men expect to learn many
lessons from the tests conducted dur
ing the month. Careful study was
made of the effect of the explosion
on shipboard of the various types Of
bombs up to 1 pounds and some
changes are expected to result. One
possibility suggested was that of an
armored deck on top of the hull in
addition to that below the waterline.
Naval officers made no effort to dis
guise their surprise that the Ostfries-
land fell victim to an aerial attack.
