Planes VS.. Ships
To the Editor of The Times:
Your article, "Airplanes versus
Battleships" allow me to explain
that battleShips and cruisers
are needed for our national de-
fense, as long as other nations
continue to build them-but-
A battleship or cruiser can be
struck directly by a we'll
trained aerial bombing crew
from a minimum elevation OF
5000 feet by using ordinary
bomb sights, and direct hits can
be scored from a minimum H.
900 feet elevation with telescope
sights. 1t is not necessary for a
bombing plane to maneuver in
position over a target, as the
target can be lined up miles
away by the use of sight
wires" and the sights adjusted
to the average speed of the tar
get and speed and elevation OF
the bombing plane. Wind d.
rections can be easily obtained
by observing the drift of the
plane when flying in natural
position, and by dropping mini
ature bombs long before reach
ing the targets. When bomb
ing formations attack their tar
gets, they fly up or down wind
and the bombs are dropped
while flying full speed over
the moving or stationary
targets. The advance pursuit
and scout formation can en-
gage and down all battleships,
guarding planes in less than 80
minutes, as they would be out
numbered l to S.
The attack (Hell DiVerS) can
follow up the heavy bombing
planes and "dive bomb" all tar
gets while the, second heavy
bombing formation is approach
ing the targets, followed up by
q second attack formation and
while the first bombing and at
tack and pursuit return to their
nearest base carrier or shore
station for additional bombs
and fuel, the third formation
is on the way to drop their
bombs. So it is obvious that
an entire fleet can be de-
stroyed in event of real war.
Peace time mimic wars and
maneuvers cannot demonstrate
the high efficiency of bombing
planes. Today's bombing planes
are fully developed and it
would be endangering our Ma.

ness.
Airships in future wars will
not only destroy battleships,
but they will also effectively
destroy entire armies in the
field, transportation, and in
dustrial centers and play havoc
with cities and towns.
There is only one effective
weapon against air attack and
that weapon is airplanes.
Second to none.

$252 on a soldiers certificate.
Afraid of banks, we returned
1852 for safe-keeping, drawing
on same $50 per year. They
gave us back $142.67 for the
$152 cash we loaned them for a

Mosquito Boat May
 Solve Navy Worries
MiIe-a-Minute Ship With Torpedo Tubes Frances
 Newest Weapon-Wonld Paralyze Sea Transport

CT airforces, has found echo on the waters of St Nazaire.
 The BIO, described by its ad- yocates as the most formidable weapon on the sea, is being per- fected at the estuary of the Loire for the French navy. If the cur- rent tests prove satisfactory, the craft is to be turned out in series.
 Chief argument in favor of the BIO is its alleged invulnerability. Briefly described, the craft Is a speed boat destined to develop between sixty and seventy land- miles an hour and armed with two torpedo-tubes.
 Sixty feet long, IS abeam, pro- pelled by two internal-combustion engines developing I, ,000 h.p. each, the BIO according to it's advo- cates will be able to dart over the surface of the sea without fear of air bombs, shells from forts or battleships and submarine attacks
 Virtually invisible from com paratively low altitude in any but clearest weather, and equipped for lightning-like maneuvers such as might be necessitated by ravi- gating through a mine field, this motorized torpedoboat would be to the sea forces what the new ultra rapid two-man tank prom ises to be to the United States land forces.
 The BIO, it is said, has devel- oped 55' knots in recent tests. A small craft, with lesser cruising range, attained 50 nautical miles an hour at CherbOurg last sum- mer. Both prototypes more close ly resemble millionaires speed boats than engines of war. This type of ship, 1t is said. would be invaluable in paralyzing the transport of troops by sea and in blockade work generally. Unlike the airplane, 1t would not neces- sarily suffer through temporary loss of speed, or even a halt, "be- hind the lines" It could slip quietly over fogbound waters, hide in the vicinity of enemy fleets and harbors at night and carry out the sort of detailed policing which is too circumscribed in scope for aircraft.
 Launching of the ''mosquito- boat, by France recalls predic- ton last October by Hubert Scott Paine, designer of Miss England. that the futures navies would consist largely of miniature bat tleships travelling at a mile-a- minute.
