sPEcTER OF AIR ATTACK FAR FROM
ALARMING ..- ..s
CBv BRUCE CATToN)

One of the most prominent bogeymen
. of modern times is the specter OF aerlai
warfare.
When the next war comes, we are as
sured, great fleets of bombing planes Will
swoop on US out of the ocean somewhere
and reduce our chief cities to ashes IN
something less than the time it takes to
saw "Jack Robinson" Alarmists have
harmed on this theme for years, assuring
rs that we are defenseless against aerial
invasion and that we shall have a pretty
sorry time of it the next time we go to
war.
But Maj-Gen. James G. Harbord, who
was something of a soldier in the last war,
thinks we are getting worried for no good
reason In a recent speech General Har-
bord bluntly scoffed at this picture OF
wholesale destruction. 90.
Reviewing the dreadful prediction OF
American cities destroyed by hostile bomb
res, the general remarked that the predic-
ton has only one fault-it has no founda-
ton in fact. .
Before we grow frightened at the
thought of an invading air fleet, he begs
us to figure out where such fleet would
come from.
at is still seven-day wonder" he says,
"when plane, stripped of excess weight,
makes trans-ocean flight, while in the
, time taken by the Italian armada under
General Italo Balbo to cross the Atlantic,
aided all the way by friendly nations, the
: trip could have been made in a tramp
steamer"
An air squadron must have base, con-
tinues the general No neutral country
would permit its soil to be used for such
purposes; and if a floating base were used
well, we have pretty fair sort OF navy,
which could be relied on to take care of
that.
And those bombs? No bomb yet made,
says the general, could destroy modern
steel skyscraper. Those gas bombs which
are to extefminate city's populace would
Have to be brought in by the million
pound lot-and even then people would
be safe if they kept their doors and win
dows closed.
Z There are not, continued General Har-
bord, enough bombing planes in all the
World to destroy city in few hours.
Furthermore, planes must land, sooner or
later; and no air armada has yet flown
whose personnel could not be run in by
the municipal police if it landed in hostile
territoryis'
e All this sounds very Much like excellent
eonnrnon sense. This bogey-man may not
be quite as dreadful a specter as we had
supposed.
