PLANES NEED PILOTS

This nation is at present bending every effort
toward producing airplanes better, faster and ir
larger quantities than they have ever been produced
before anywhere in the world Planes are recog-
nzed necessary to the defense of democracy Just
as necessary to fly those planes What are
we doing to train pilots? ,s
The Civil Aeronautics Administration has just
,ssued report showing that 1899 graduates of the
CAAs civilian pilot training program have volun-
teered and been accepted by the Army and Navy
air services up to June l. CAA filters have been
going into active defense work at the rate of al
most 200 week since the first of March. This is
approximately the rate at which planes have been
rolling off the production lines. AS in the case OF
planes an increase is expected soon. AS a matter
Of national policy the great majority of CAA stu
dents in colleges have been discouraged from vol
uneerng until they have finished their years work
at school. The current figures include only few
volunteers from this group which will undoubtedly
contribute handsomely to the greatly increased total
now that school is out for the summer.

afraid of a showdown with the left
wlngers and bent on appeasement.
The anti-Reds say they are de-
termined to clean house even if 1T
splits the CLIO wide open. The leftists,
fearful of being isolated, will play
every trump card to hold Murray
in line to protect them. This strategy
was very apparent last week.
When Murray finally blasted o.
M. orion, leftist head of the Wood
workers Union and then condemned
the outlaw plane strike at Inglewood
Calf, the ants were jubilant. But
two days after the Army took over
the North American plant. Murray
suddenly reversed himself and sharp
ly criticized the seizure.
Behind that statement was some
maneuvering by Harry Bridges, left
ist Pacific Coast leader. Sensing the
wave of public ire at the Kommies
Bridges cannily decided it was time
for them to duck for cover.
He had endorsed the strike, but
hurriedly he switched and recon-
mended that work be resumed. Also,
he sent word to leftist leaders of the
outlaw strike of Cleveland die-cast-
ers to pull in their horns-an order
they obeyed promptly.

Detecting Submarines
New York Times)

(NeW YORK 11meS)
If Mr.. Charles F. Ketterng were not a trained
scientist and the director of of our great indus
trial laboratories his forecast of device to
ter the submarine might be dismissed another
optimistic dream His assurance that 1--WE have been
working with the Navy for six years. indicates plain
ly enough that he refers not to sudden in
spiration but to something which has been the sub
ject of systematic and earnest experimentation
The detection of submarines under water may
be considered solved reasonably well. Here the en-
gneer deals with sound. Sensitive telephones have
been used successfully TRANSATLANTIC liners to de-
tect the beating of nearby propelers in fog The
submarine commanders know all this and shut off
every sound when they submerged The ques-
ton is the perfection of device to catch sub
marines on the surface at night.
Since Mr.. Kettering refers to work that has
been going on for six years we drift back mentally
to some experiments which made about 1885
off Sandy Hook in detecting steamers at night with
out the aid of searchghts Not the slightest tech
nical hint given at the time as to the principle
that was tested Perhaps thermocouples used
devices which can measure heat at considerable dis
tances; for, If astrophysicist can measure the
temperature of Mars at distance Of 100000 miles,
it ought be possible to- detect the presence of
submarine at the surface few miles away by the
heat that its engines give off either during propul-
sion or during the charging of storage batteries.
Radio too, might possibly be used. If any piece of
machinery submarine generates sparks (some-
thing that engineers do their best to avoid very
hort waves are sent out which be picked up.
The faulty ignition systems of taxicabs around the
corner play havoc enough with television sets it
is. Whatever the Mr.. Kettering may have
in mind he could hardly be explicit at time like
this.

ALLIES WILL CONTINUE

There was an interesting inside
story behind the declaration by four
teen Allied governments in London
that they would fight Hitler to the
end.
The idea was first conceived in
I the United States by one of the
Presidents friends, who put it up to
Vice President Wallace The plan
was for each of the exiled govern
ments-Norway, Greece, Yugoslavia,
Holland, Poland, Belgium, Czecho-
slovakia, etc.-to join in sending a
letter to President Roosevelt setting
forth their determination to continue
! fighting for freedom and indepen-
dence in Europe
Vice President Wallace thought the
plan was excellent and took it to
the President, who then sent it to
the Secretary of State.
I After that nothing happened. Fin
ally, the Vice President called upon
the President to see what had be-
come of the idea. He found that Cor
dell Hull had sent Roosevelt memo
disapproving it. Mr.. Hull's chief OBJ
lection, in effect, was this: 1T would
bring discord among our people"
After that the idea was put up to
the British Churchill snapped it up
Immediately, altering it to have the
declaration jointly made in London
instead of addressed to Roosevelt.

Flight 10
Yesterday,

FAIRBANKS, Alaska-Army Air
Corpsmen, engaged in experimental
flying at Ladd Field near here, have
flown from today into yesterday and
returned unscathed.
Major Dale v. Gaffney, expert
mental station commander, and a
tbomber crew "past-tensed" them
tselves, then cojugated themselves
land the plane back into the present,
during flight to Point Barrow, on
the Arctic rim The huge craft took
off from Laid Field during one of
the shortest days of the year, flying
north and away from the just rising
sun. But it soon left the rays of the
sun behind and the men found
themselves flying through the Arc
tic night.
At Barrow, the plane beean its
return flight, and presently the crew
was treated to the phenomenon of
the rising sun again-the same sun
rise they had left behind few hours
previously. N

at homea What would Germany do with am army
invincibe but largely useless? What would be the
effect on the nations conquered by Germany, OF
acting as vassal allies, when British air superior
ity was established?
For there is tremendous difference between
the British and German psychology in this war The
British are able to take terrific punishment from
the air because they know that their only alterna-
tive is barbarous and intolerabe slavery But the
German alternative to punishment from the air is
merely to change leaders and to give up booty and
nsensate ideas of world conquest That is why there
is real hope that the present war can be won in
the air.

BRIDGES AND CuRRAN

Bridges followed this up by a
message to his East Coast pal, Joe
Currhn, head of the CLIO Maritime
Workers, to arrange get-to-gether
between Orton and Murray. Only a
few insiders know that it was Bridg-
es, working through Curran. who
arranged this peace meeting orion
gave the impression that he was
making the trip from Seattle to
Washington at the request of Muir
ray. But Curran sat in on their meet
ing.
Bridges knows that the leftists,
while in control of key places in a
number of CIO unions, numerically
are weak and would be easy to GUST
in a determined fight. He seeks to
forestall such purge by playing on
Murray's fears of split OF the CLIO
So the leftists are plying him with
assurances that henceforth they will

HOW WIN THE WAR?

Many Americans seem to assume that the war
can be ended only by the direct defeat of the Ger
man Army. This assumption, logical it seems
on the basis of the history of most other ever
fought, is open to question in 1941. This war has
revolutonized destroyed conventional strategic
concepts that had stood for generations. German
air power, for example, has sharply contracted the
previous advantages of British sea power The first
clear evidence of this came in the Norwegian cam
paign We have seen it illustrated recently
the Greek islands in the Aegean; the Mediter-
ranean: in the campaign in Libya; in the Battle of
the Atlantic, and in the crucial battles in the sky
over Britain itself The British have been able to
defend their fleet and their most spectacular
sea victories in the Battle of Cape Matapan and
the sinking of the Bismarck only by their own air
power. 1t is British air power much sea power
that keeps Hitler from invading England today.
But this revolution in warfare has its reverse
potentiality-that air power can just sharply re-
duce the advantages of land power This potenality
has been concealed far by the fact that Germany
the nation that has land superiority, also has air
superiority Germany even owes its present land
superiority in fact largely to its air superiority; for
if the air situation had been reversed it is hardly
conceivable that France in spite of German tanks.
would have been conquered today.
Let us suppose that American help could hold
Britain in the war long enough for America and
Britain combined to gain air superiority over Ger
many This achievement is not easy it is
sometimes presented as being, but it is than
possible Then, though Germany might be every
where victorious the Continent. the British could
bomb industrial and military detectives in Germany
and the French coast almost at will. What would
be the feeling in Germany what would happen to
the prestige of Hitler and his Nazi gang, if the

accepted these promises and is now
seeking to restore peace" between
the warning factions.
NOTE. = 1t was significant that
Murray conferred with Orion and
Curran in his office in the United
Mine Workers building, one floor
above the vast, ornate office of John
L. Lewis. Also significant: Lee Press
man, leftist general counsel Of the
CLIO and a close Lewis lieutenant,
participated in the talks.

There was a minor revolt in the
office of Senator Jimmy Byrnes the
day he was appointed to the SUI
preme Court. And in the showdown
he lost.
Roosevelt had told the popular
South Carolinian one day before
that his nomination would be sent
to the Senate. But Byrnes said alb
solutely nothing about it to his Of
flee staff. 1t was his intention to &c
to the Senate with as little commo-
ion as possible. However, no sooner
had he left his private office when
he ran smack into his entire staff
"Wh-where are you going?p gasped
ByrneS.
THE office is closed" firmly de-
clared his secretary, Cassie Conner
We're all going over to hear your
nomination for the Supreme Court
announced in the Senate.
Please don't do that" pleaded
Byrnes. 1T will look funny if my en-
tire office force is perched in the
gallery People will think we're Show
ing off,"
Sorry, Mr.. Justice, but you're
overruled.' declared pretty Miss Con-
nor with a defiant tilt of her chin
This is an opportunity that comes
once in a lifetime and we don't aim
to miss it. The office, I repeat, is
closed"
AND she trooped off, with the rest
of the staff behind her.

Good and adverse planetary IN

There may be an inclination to

tons, but to those who face the
facts first will come the right re-
adjustments. AS the Sun enters
Cancer today for the summer quar-
ter there are certain signs that are
cheering. This is happy day for
outdoor recreations, although ex-
IRENE heat may be expected in
various parts of the country. There
is promise of pleasant employment
for many women.
Business Affairs: The elevated
position of the beneficS is believed
to presage extraordinary prosperity
for the Middle West. In all parts
of the United States prosperity
will prevail as political and finan-
cial leaders direct tremendous ex-
pansion of manufacturing. Under
this planetary government there
should be a united effort toward
defense which assures practical
achievement. Whatever retards the
fulfillment of ambitious plans now
will be eliminated as desperate
needs generally are understoodsIir
National Issues: Since this is a
democracy there will be a h deter
mined opposition to Government
secrecy regarding any program that
concerns war. Labor will demon
