PARIS, May 28.-The Belgian
army surrendered Internationally to
the Germans today under orders
from King Leopold III, breaking the
back of the Allied armies of the
north and bringing the battle of
Flanders to its eliminating point.
That blow was as heavy as the
collapse of the army of Gen. Andre
Coraps in the battle of the Meuse
May IS, which permitted the Ger
mans to break through France to
the English Channel and split the
northern and central Allied forces.
The French and British remnants
Of Gen. Blanchard's northern army
carried on the Flanders fight, but
a military spokesman acknowledged
their resistance was extremely diff
ficult."
The outcome of the war now turns
on the central front along the
Somme and Aisne Rivers and down
the main Maginot Line defenses.
Capitulated Before Dawn.
The Belgians. battered back al
most to their Western shore by 18
days of blitzkrieg, capitulated before
dawn today.
The Belgian government, now in
France, rejected the Kings leader
ship, "disowned"-in effect, de-
posed-him aid conferred on new
Belgium" to continue the fight.
But how effective Belgium now
can be as an ally is problematical.
King Leopold himself was COM
mander in chief Of the Belgian
Army. His order to lay down arms
in unconditional surrender ended
the resistance of the great body of
his forces =
1S Divisions Lost
The decision of Belgian leaders
here to reorganize an army to
continue fighting referred presum-
ably only to whatever Belgian
troops are in France, few units
at most, and to Belgian refugees

taking military training in this
country.

American warplanes must be re-
designed before mass production
can be begun, q pioneer designer in
all-metal airplanes declared today
as executives from the aviation In
dustry pondered their problems In
forums.
william B. Stout of Detroit, who
designed the Ford tri-motor plane
Of 4 decade ago, predicted in an in

new methods will be found before
the United States can attempt to
turn out $4,000 planes a year.
"You cannot 60 into mass pro-

he declared. THE average big plane
has 1900 rivets which have been
put in by hand, and the costs 60 up

The only method to advance the
output is by getting technical men
to do it instead of screwballS." Ger

He recommended that a research

Immediately without being bothered
by political interference. They

A production group, made up of
industrialists acquainted with the

nothing to do with it, he asserted,
and both the research and produc-

only to the President. .
Standardization on a very few
models would not provide the
answer for large output, he said.
Competition must be continued
even if it is only by three or four
companies so that advancement
will continue" Each factory, how
ever, should be standardized on one
type of plane but not the whole in
