The Foe Within

In orr battle for justice we must
realize that there are thousands Of
traitors within our own ranks-men
and women who, having mortgaged
their own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anxious to
sell out our group for a mess Of pot
tage. In myraids of instances they
have already done so. Many Of these
beings are like moles which burrOW
beneath the surface, and they have
by their pernicious activities placed
the entire structure of our rights IN
peril. The vilest, cruelest, most bru-
tai, craftiest, most venomous, and
most cold -blooded outspoken enemy
is far less dangerous than the vile
crafty, Sinking, snake-like burrOw-

To carry out these various
jobs, the nvay employs many
kinds of planes, based on both
land and sea. In addition IL
carriers, planes are based on
battleships (three-plus each) and
cruisers (four-plus each), from
which they can be launched by
catapults, and on special smaller
plane tenders. Many types of
U. S. Navy planes are univer-
sally considered the worlds
finest.
Huge patrol bombers, like
the Consolidated Catalina
which sighted the Bismarck for
Britian's fog-bound M val posse,
have a tremendous range, ex-
ceeding 5000 miles. One of these
bombers can watch many thou
sand square miles of sea in one
day.
Shorter-ranged. but very
deadly, are the scout bombers
which perform the double duties
implied in their name. Many Of
these are also convertible into
dive bombers. The navy still
believes that dive bombers are
most effective in the role for

Dive bombing calls for the
peak of physical perfection in

If air power is the navy's
strength, it is also its weak
ness. On hand are less than
half of its 10,000-plane goal.
And Americas ships, though
speedily preparing, are not yet
fully armed or armored against
enemy air power.
More important, it must be
remembered that air fleets, un-
like sea fleets, cannot operate
in all weather. The navy can
not count on planes for scouting
in foggy or rough weather, must
rely on cruisers, destroyers and
submarines when planes are
grounded" at sea.
Increased emphasis on air
power has made all the more
important the second major
aspect of sea power-bases.
Modern fleets cannot operate
much more than $500 miles
from their bases. In the past
year America has improved her
naval strength through the &C.
QUESTION of bases in the Atlantic
stretching from Greenland and
Newfoundland in the north to
the coast of Brazil.
It takes more than the acquisi-
ton of land, however, to make
a fleet base. It takes years to
build the necessary drydocks,
fuel storage tanks, repair shops,
grocery stores and the thousand
and one other items the fleet re-
quires. The new Atlantic bases
are chiefly useful as advance
bases for patrol bombers and as
blocks against their use as in

ute. Screaming down from per-
haps 10000 feet to within a
couple of thousand feet of his
target. the pilot drops his bomb
and pulls out" This is the
crucial moment for both pilot
and plane, for gravity pulls them
with tremendous force back
towards the sea. As it does so,
the pilot momentarily loses
consciousness.
To take care of these critical
seconds, the Nazis repeatedly
equipped the dive bombers with
a device to freeze the stick as
the plane pulled out, until the
pilot could regain consciousness
and take control.
Dive bombers are the most
spectacular. but by no means
the most important, of the
navy's air arm. The value of
torpedo planes was proven by
the British air attack on italian
ships at laramie and again
against the Bismarck.
One criterion of any navy's
