PREFER PLANES FOR
PATROL SAFEGUARD

Naval experts doubt whether
American warships are the best
weapon TO safeguard shipments

patrolling plan. They prefer TO
spot hostile subs and aircraft
by the use Of planes based on
Greenland.
Airplanes have been extremely
successful in warning Of and
wsrding off surface or under
water attacks in the Mediter-
rsnesn. They are cheaper to
maintain than cruisers or sub
marines. They can cover more
territory. which is an essential
factor in patrol duty. They
could keep away from German
aircraft more easily than a war
ship, thus minimizing the dan
ger of an actual clash. Our avia-
tors would receive training I'M
der conditions approaching those
OF war.
On the other hand. the Green
land scheme might subject the
