HINT Il GIVEN IN
STATEMENT BY BRETT

A hint Of this may be seen In
Thursdays statement in London
by Maj. Gen. George II. Brett, a
member of the United States aid
mission TO Russia. General Brett
urged that the South Atlantic
route be used for ferrying planes
both TO Britain and the Near East.
While it is longer than the north
ern route, he argued that weather
delays would make it faster and
far safer.
In his remarks at a press
conference. General Brett, who
has surveyed the South At
lantic route, made significant
emphasis on the Near East.
He intimated that the British
AIR force there IL being rapidly

The implication of his sugges-
