greater.

London, (UP)--Although their
belief appears to be supported by
meager evidence, European gov
ernments and general STATS have
been displaying interest in what
they consider the dawn of Anglo
German aeronautical cooperation
in which they detect important
military implications.
Britain's insistance at the arms
conference, that use of military
aircraft in colonial territories
shall be exempted from the pro-
posed general abolition of bomb
ing planes, is taken to indicate
that the British air ministry is
determined to retail all its bomb
ing planes. 1t is realized here,
however, that world opinion will
hold Britain responsible for block
ing aerial ornaments limitation.
An escape from this dilemma is
seen in the collaboration of Brit
ish air forces and German mill
tary aviation.
1t stands to reason that Britain
could afford to reduce the number
OF military planes at home, were
she permitted to keep, or even ex-
pand, the total Of bombing planes
