THE Army estimate for Project No

that the Curry hill with notifications
to meet the recommendations con-
tanned above be used as the basis for
legislation for a Department OF the
Air.
"Of the above. the Air Force itself
in time of peace, exclusive Of the
Army and Navy, would be composed
of 1000 service planes, 1900 officers
and 20.500 men. These planes would
be ready to take the offensive and
fight and are not mere auxiliaries of
some other force or paper descrip
tions Of what planes might be. No
numbers have been put down for
training planes, as the proportionate
number of one plane for 20 men is
covered in the general estimate"
Now, let us take a look at what
our entire National defense scheme
would be in case we put the general
plan I have suggested into operation.
First. we would have a Secretary
of National Defense, charged with
co-ordinating the Army, Navy and
Air Force. The Army. charged with
the defense Of land areas. The Navy,
charged with the defense Of sea areas.
The Air Force. having Jurisdiction
over air areas. tThe Army and Navy
would have with them, as a per
manent part of their own organiza-
ton, the air services necessary for
their own domestic use)

there should be sufficient reserves
both of personnel and equipment.
'On n war basis. for the airplane
carriers Saratoga and Lexington an
estimate Of $50 planes, rs each. cal be
made. Added to this, SO planes might
be carried by all other craft, or a total
of 200 planes for the Navy. With a
amount to 900 planes. The Navy
should be made to show specifically
what can be carried to sea on sea
craft as a basis for their organization.
''All airships should be handled by
the Air Force. carrying Army or Navy
observers when necessary. The whole
airship question must be completely
overhauled and not rushed into quick
ly again without exact reasons for
their use and development and then
using and developing them for what
is provided.
Air Force Schools.
''All basic flying training and aerial
combat instruction for naval aero
nautical personnel should be conduct
ed at air force schools. When they
fight in the air they should fight un-
der air force regulations. Their fin
ishing training on the airplane car
riers and other ships of the Navy
should be carried out by the Navy and
in any manner the Navy desires. In
other words. it is distinctly up to the
Navy itself to develop its aviation for
work on the high seas. The Congress
would judge what kind and how many
atrplanes, battleships or other vessels
are required for the Navy in the gem
eral national defense scheme
Maximum for Navy.
The amount of aeronautical per
sonnel necessary for these purposes
would be about 10 officers in naval
headquarters at Washington, about
go flying officers and about 200 oh.
servers and about 10 non.navigating
personnel for every airplane, or 1000
men. There should be a reserve not
on duty of about so per cent for the
pilots and so per cent for the ground
men. This. it would seem, is the
maximum that our Navy will need
under any ordinary conditions for
work at sea, according to the present
system. War casualties in naval avia-
ton will not be high, because they will
not be engaged in constant comhats
with the enemy in an air war. They
Will only be in combat when hostile
fleets come together, which, in fact,
may be never. and If they do come to.

This system gives the Navy no

would have as part of their own or.

would stop the Navy from trying to
create a land air service, which is not

Based on about 20 airplanes to the
squadron, this will make 200 airplanes;
SO per cent reserve would make 100
airplanes additional There should be
about 230 pilots and 230 observers for
the Army and 10 ground men to the
airplane. making a total of about
1000 men. In time of peace all Army
air units in the United States should
be at so per cent strength, abroad at
100 per cent.
This contempates that there be
four complete modern Infantry divi-
sions and one cavalry division in the
United States. These divisions should
be distributed so that two of them
would be available in the area Chica

in the middle States. one on the Pa

tier and one Cavalry division on the
Mexican frontier.
"The harbor defense artillery could
use one squadron on the Atlantic and
one on the Pacific. They could provide
themselves with whatever balloons
they needed and operate them.

Air Force in the United States should
be built should contemplate the use in

bardment, in which some attack avia-
ton is included. There should be 100
per cent reserves provided for.
This organization is necessary on
account Of what may be brought
against us in the future. This con-
templates that one brigade Of 600
ships will cover the Eastern part of
ad hrfcy 1n nf
ships will cover the Western part Of
the United States, and one air divi.
sion of 1900 ships will be stationed so
that 1t can be shifted either way or
both ways and even to our inSular
and outlying possessions instantly in
case of necessity.
"Supplementing this, there should
be II nights Of airplanes each COW
erfng our Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
This gives a patrol and surveillance
element for every 200 miles. / wish
that it be distinctly held in mind that
the stationing and distribution Of air
units in case Of war or even in peace
does not involve the tremendous con-
struction work that is necessary for
land forces or water forces. Fields
for operation can be prepared for oc.
cupancy within a few hours. Air
planes themselves in the future will
be constructed so that they need lit
tie or no shelter under service con-
ditions. The comparatively small
number Of men that handle them can
be 1easily housed and taken care of
in In efficient manner With a prop
er tystem, unencumbered by useless
red tape, the whole thing can be
put into operation with great rapidity.
Assuming that 81 500 per man be
taken as the cost of the Air Force per
year. which is based on the estimate
for the Lassiter Army project. now
known as project No. incidentally
