WAR INTERPRETIVE

4he British Mediterranean fleet the

German warship.
The pocket battleships are fast,
nowerful craft armed with 1-inch
Guns, Although one British cruiser
with eight-inch guns and two light
mes with six-inchers proved sui
ficient to whip the pocket battle
ship Graf Spec and persuade the
Germans to scuttle her off Monte
yideo last December it. takes a
large number of craft to search
such a great area as the Atlantic
for any warship.
If available, the ships making
up such a scouting force would
ordinarily consist of several high
speed cruisers. an aircraft carrier
whose patrol planes could sweep
the sea for 500 miles and more in
all directions, and c backbone of
one or two ~battleships to make
certain that the enemy was pound
ed to pieces when found.
1t appears unlikely that the Ger
nan cargo vessels which dashed
out of Tampico and turned back
upon e e g searchlights ahead
were trying merely to find out
what patrol force the British had
in that vicinity. Such a purpose
might have been accomplished
much more easily, and without the
scuttling of one of the ships.
Possible Mistake
One of the German ship captains
has stated that he saw the lights
Of a %battleship in the distance,
directing destroyers in pursuit of
the Nazi merchant men. Among
men with long experience at sea
it is said that he might easily have
been mistaken as to the ships
character, because objects on the
ocean at night are difficult to dis
tinguish.
The likelihood of a British battle
ship being off the coast of Mexico
is minimized also by the known
scarcity Of warshirs recently in
Britain's Atlantic conveys, where
they are badly needed. Dispatches
concerning the convoy which was
scattered on November S men

cept the converted cargo-passenger
liner Jervis Bay. A convoy of such
Size could well have used a half
dozen or more destroyers in an
effort to strike the raider with
torpedoes.
Perhaps the German warship's
pest chance of escaping a British
scouting force would be to slip into
some port in conquered Norway.
aeaVy weather, reducing visibility
al sea, would improve the pros
poets for success in such a maneu-
YER.
But even if the recent claimed
increase in Britain's balance of

"army cooperation command"
which will work closely with land
forces.
The air command shifts carry
cut a previous arrangement to give
the army its own air force and
capitalizes on lessons learned from
Frances collapse.
"A principal feature of the new
arrangements is the decision to set
up a command of the Raj to be
called the army cooperation COM
mand which will comprise all
s%quadrons allotted to the army in
the United Kingdom together with
associated training units" the air
ministry said.
"An agreement in principle was
reached between the army and the
Raj commands several weeks ago
when the Raj met the army de-
mand for complete control of the
air force with an offer to turn over
several units"
The authoritative Press Associ-
alton described the army cooper
alton command as an admirable
compromise"
It said that 'In some quarters
there has been a demand for an
army air arm comparable to the
fleet air arm. This proposal
has been found impossible of real
ization."
Vice Marshal Boyd's appoint
ment was to a new post in the
air force set-up.
