Cat Let Out of Bag by Question
Asked in Parliament.

LONDON.-(A. p. letter. Britain
Is declared again to be in dire peril.
She is described as in a dangerous
state of unpreparedness against air
attack. Experts contend that London
could be laid in ruins from the air
within "a hours. Many facts and fig
ures are given by various newspapers
to prove it.
Can't Sleep.
Britons and Londoners especially
are told they should be so badly scared
they wouldn't sleep soundly in their
beds again until something was done
to set matters right. But, the stoIid
Britisher refuses to be scared for any
body or anything. He rejoices that it
has temporarily stopped raining and
that the last two days of the Ascot
racing were gloriously fine.
But there may be serious trouble
brewing for the government over the
state of the country's air defenses.
Major General Seely started the trou-
ble-as trouble is often started here
by asking a question in Parliament as
to how the country was fixed for air
planes in case of war.
SO Machines.
The reply Of Captain Guest, the
Air Minister, was not exactly calculat-
ed to make nervous people feel COM
Portable. He said that while the
country in 1920 had 1876 civil airp1anes
fit for war, it now had only SO and

propaganda work and issued a state

The total strength of the Royal Air
Force in these islands is IL squadrons,

No provision has been made to en-
