MOFFETT UPHOLDS
NAVAL AIR POLICY
Rear Admiral ReiterateS Con-

BY the A .sociated Press.


CHARLESTON, S. c.. May 12.-An
echo of the air power controversy
precipitated bv William Mitchell, then
assistant chief of the Army Air Serv-
ice, crept into the commencement
exercises at the College of Charleston
last night when Rear Admiral VII
liam Moffett, Navy air chief, reiterated
his belief that air forces should never
he separated from the fleet.
Either through ignorance or ma
lIcious intent the Navy has been
charged with being opposed to the
fullest development of its air arm,
Admiral Moffett said. "Such accusa-
tions are false and without founda-
ton. The Navy. however, has been
opposed to powerful attempts to Wrest
It's aircraft from it, and to the at
temptS of irresponsible individuals TO
create distrust in the ability and in
tesrity of those directly concerned
with the agencies of the national de
tense. Confidence in the forces safe
guarding our interests is essential to
national security.
Our progress has been steady and
our policies sane. That we have re-
sisted the attempts to weaken our
Navy by following the dictates of
radicals should be placed to our
credit.
at can be truthfully stated that
aerial efficiency is henceforth to be
the true measure of sea power. That
such is the reality Of tomorrow no
one can doubt in the light Of postwar
progress and achievements.
ITO meet the exactinE requirements
Of efficiency, the utilization of aerial
weapons at sea cannot be hastily i'm
provised in wartime. but must be
carefully prepared for by competent
and responsible experts having faith
IN the future Of air power and per-
severingly working along evolution
