forcements. It has been said that
mechanization and motorization
afford equal advantages for attack
and defense, since II they enable
attack to 60 forward quickly and
under some protection. they also en-
able the defender to assemble his
reserves quickly to meet the threat.
But 1t is to the air that the assailant
must look to prevent this, and hence
1t may now be laid down as a rule
as absolute as any rule of ever
varying war may become, that air
superiority is essential to successful
attack. 1t may be only a local or
temporary superiority, but it must
be possessed (other factors, of course
being reasonably balanced) If the
attack hopes to succeed against the
tremendous fire power of modern
defensive weapons. Moreover unless
the attacker does have air superb
ority, he will himself be so harassed
and badgered by the defending avi-
alton as to greatly diminish his
chances.
Artillery Accuracy Better.
On both sides of the North Sea
we have as yet seen so little real air
action that we can draw only tenta-
tive and fragmentary lessons there
from. Anti-aircraft artillery ap-
pears much more accurate than in
the World War, but still requires a
considerable warning period for the
best results, which is rarely afforded
1t in defending coastal positions. 1t
is seriously handicapped at night

espite improvements In search

lights.
There have been few, If any, in
stances Of attempts to attack gun
positions by aircraft. Pursuit avia-
ton has shown that, given q reas-
enable opportunity, 1t is a most
formidable foe of the bomber, and
the Helgoland raid suggested that
the defensive fire-power Of bomb
ing formations as against properly
handled and armed pursuit has per-
haps been over-rated. This raid,
and some of the smaller German
raids which preceded it, were so
badly handled by the defending pur-
suit aviation as to suggest the ne
cessity of daylight bombing attacks
being accompanied by pursuit
escort-an opinion also held by some
observers Of the Spanish Civil War.
This would tend to limit the radius
of action of bombing forces in day.
time to that of their accompanying
escort-just as surface fleets are
limited by the radius Of action of
their destroyers-and If generally
accepted will have two results, de-
velopment Of long-range escorting
planes and an increase In night
bombing operations. The Germans
in their Scapa Flo attack did in
deed take the precaution of bomb
ing the airdrome of the defending
British fighters, using the advantage
of seaward approach-hence, sur
prise-to do so. But this will hardly
be the rule in such matters. The
British attack on Sylt was by night,
and demonstrated what was we'll

showed little evidence Of being
capably commanded or possessing
. first-class personnel, though its
material on the whole appeared
good. There was no complete over
whelming of the greatly outnum-
bered Finnish air force, which con-
tinued to operate. though under in
creasing difficulties, right to the
end Of the war. Finnish rail and
sea communications were attacked,
damaged, but not completely par
alyzed as in Poland. Particularly
instructive to the British, however,
must have been the very serious
damage inflicted by repeated attacks
on the port facilities of Hanko,
Turku, Viipuri and other coastal
points; these, had they been con-
Quoted by the German air force
which attacked Poland, would as
suredly have put an end to all mari
time traffic through those ports, and
Great Britain's utter dependence
on sea communications includes de-
pendence not only on the movement
Of ships, but on the ability to load
and land cargoes.
Spanish War Lessons Applied.
In the field of air-ground CO.
operation the Finnish war, as the
Polish. was most impressive. Here
Interest centers on the Russian en-
ployment of their air forces in sup
port Of their series of attacks on
the Mannerheim Line, especially the
successful attacks of February.
Since there is,every reason to be-
lieve that these February attacks
had the benefit of the advice If not
the day-to-day direction of Ger
man staff officers, the use made of
air power in their conduct is of
especial interest In forecasting the
nature of war in other parts of
Europe. The Russians appear to
have applied to their problem the
lessons of the Spanish civil war,
where this technique was developed
by Gen. Franco, notably in his
assault on the iron ring of Bilbao.
During the World War the general
course of many attacks was first a
local penetration, narrowing its
front and slowing its advance as it
went deeper because of increased
pressure on the flanks, finally COM
ing to standstill as 1t outran the
range Of its supporting artillery;
there followed pause in which the
supporting artillery was being dis
placed forward and reserves brought
up to widen the front of penetration.
This was usually the moment for
the counter-attack, which frequently
deprived the assailant Of all that he
had gained at the cost of so much
blood and effort.
The intervention of strong air sup
port for the attacker at this point
Is obviously most useful if not
wholly adequate substitute for artil-
lery; If his air power can slow
down or destroy the counter-attack
it will render him a still more valu-
able service. In more distant areas
the assailant's air force can check
the assembling of enemy reserves
and the arrival of supplies and rein

known In the World War. that at
night pursuit aviation can accom-
plish very little against bolnbers save
under unusual conditions Of wis.,
bility.
Thus, slowly, We are learning .
little more about the new and ter
rible weapon Of air power, and what
we know suggests that, like all other
weapons, 1t has its own virtues and
its own defects, and will be the
more formidable when 1t Is used by
those who understand both what 1t
can do and what it cannot do, and
employ it in close coordination with
other fighting forces. Yet Of its true
qualities we know as yet but little;
we are probably standing on the
threshold of q wider experience.

extremely risky against q properly
organized foe. Absolute mastery
of the air." writes Gen. Boucherie
of the French Army in the current
National Defense Review, "and the
close combination of ground and
air operations are shown by the
Polish campaign to be the prime
conditions of success in the en-
ployment Of large mechanized units
for the execution of swift-moving
long-range missions
But the Polish war affords us few
lessons regarding position warfare,
instructive as it is with regard to
mobile operations. The Finnish
campaign has been more useful in
the former respect, though by no
means lacking in the latter. To
begin with, the Russian air force
