25 CIVIC BODIES
BACK CKPLANFOR
RDEFENSES

Formation of a permanent or
ganiZation to promote 5000, ,000.-
900 program for national air
frontier defense was assured to-
day.
Representatives Of more than Is
civic groups accepted invitations
to attend meeting here Monday
to throw their support behind the
plan sponsored by Representative
James Wilcox CD), of Florida.
Representative Wilcox is pre-
pairing to introduce legislation in
Congress providing for the crea-
tion Of 20 air bases along the coast
lines and inland, at each Of which
100 airplanes, 6 blimps and cap
tive balloons would be perma'
nently stationed.
On Each Coast
Although the location of these
air bases is still tentative. present
plans call for three on the At
lantic coast, three on the Pacific,
one in the Great Lakes sector. one
on the Gulf of Mexico, one at
Panama and another at Alaska.
The inland bases may be fixed at
existing airportS.
The National Air Frontier De-
fense Association, when perma-
nently organized. will stress the
necessity of bolstering the nations
air forces as the best means OF
defense in time of war.
Navy Inadequate
The Navy is inadequate to pro-
tect our coasts in an emergi ncy
and coast Notifications have be.
come obsolete, the associations
program asserts. 1t adds:
actually our air defense is
almost nOnexistent. The dis.
treSSing part of the story is that
at best it would take two or
three years to build our air
power up to its proper size.
"After war has broken out it
is too late to begin production,
particularly if the enemy pre-
vents movement of raw ma
terials or even bombs the fac
tories themselves. Steps should
be taken Immediately to remedy
this situation by organizing our
air power.
"TO utilize air power for our
national defense is to insure
peace. To ignore air develop
ment is to invite war"
