"The depression hit me like wallop from Joe Louiss left, and with about as disastrous results, says Merrill K. Riddiek in an ab- sorbing personal Alaska experience article in the July number of The Alaska Sportsman, just issued.

Planes Not Men Decide Outcome Of Battle Today

ton with planes to burn wins the battle-perhaps the war!
 That's air power.
 Until May 10. when the Germans started their blitzkrieg through western Europe, air power was largely au academic argument be- tween airmen and generals-the kind of word tempest that disgraced such great prophets as Billy Mitchell Of the U. 5. Air Service.
 More than a decade ago, Billy Mitchell told the generals what was coming. But he couldn't prove it.
 Now il has happened.
 Go behind the scenes with the military men. Let them point out on maps the German drive through the low countries and France.
 'Blitzkrieg?" you ask.
 No, they answer AIR POW FRI"
 German air power blasted every step Of the way, told the motorized corps where the enemy waited in force, and protected it from deyas- tating assaults from French and Brit ish bombers.
 The German planes zOomed out in full daylight, exposed to the aim of enemy pursuit ships and anti-air- craft fire. Hundreds Of pilots paid the penalty of daylight air war; but many completed their missions of spying, bombing, spotting artillery.
 And the Germans still have planes to spare!
 The Allies have no planes to spare so they roar out in force mainly at night. Their aim is poor then, but they avoid widespread destruction.
 All of this adds up to German air supremaey-temporarily, at least.
 Some Saw It Coming
 Strange this should have happen ed when there were so many omin ous warnings in the sky.
 The first of these was the ghost of Baron yon Richthofen. Germany's World War ace Of aces, who discoY- cred the germ of air power when he invented his flying circus. Those rowing German airmen proved that superior air force at a critical point could prove a decisive factor in war fare.
 Then Billy Mitchell told anybody who'd listen that armies were no longer front line forces, but holding forces.
 4 few years later, Charles A. Lindbergh unwittingly gave air power it's greatest shove forward when he flew to Paris, fired the worlds imagination, started com mercial aviation toward greater heights.
 Each new advance was absorbed into military aviation, especially by the Germans. Other nations were not so fast to recognize that con- mand of the land and the sea were insufficient.
 Preview In Spain's War
 In 1898 came the Spanish civil war, and Munich. when Hitler's threat of air power brought hu- initiating peace to most of Europe.
 Let Spanish Loyalist Pilot Eugene Finick tell the story of wrecked Italian blitzkrieg at Guadalajara: Here were nearly 10000 Ital- ians who had broken through our lines. Tanks and great motor lor- ries filled with troops. They came roaring along that macadam- ized road. a whole army on wheels. We came over, squad rons of Is in close formation. We dumped every bomb We had on the tanks in front and the road-tons of high explosives. In two min utes' time the tnaks and road were a shambles. :"
