A secret flight of 81 long
range, four-motor Army bomberS
from the mainland to Hawaii
was disclosed today by the War
Department.
The War Departments announce
ment of the flight said other bomb
ers would be sent to Hawaii later,
indicating the planes are being con-
centrated there to reinforce the air
command in the Pacific.
The planes departed last night
from Hamilton Field at San Fran
cisco and the last safely reached
Hickam Field on the island of
Oahu today.
1t. Gen. Delos Emmons, COM
mander of the Army's General
Headquarters Air Force, was in the
leading plane on the flight of more
than 1000 miles over the Pacific, the
War Department said.
Took Off Last Night.
The planes took off at 9:29 o'clock
(E. S. T.) last night and the last
plane landed at Hickam Field at
11:28 am. today.
As a precaution, the Navy had
provided destroyers at three stations
along the Pacific water route.
The planes were the latest models

This type of flying fortress has a
speed of more than 300 miles an
hour with flying range easily

Prior to the arrival of these long

The mass flight to Hawaii was

CAIRO, Egypt, May 14-Reliable
sources said tonight that when
American ships enter the Red Sea
with supplies for Britain's Near East
forces it will not be stealthily but
openly-as the ships of a neutral
nation, with flags painted on their
sides and brightly lighted by night.
The same sources said no ships
had yet passed through the Red Sea,
but some are expected soon.
When the United States Legation
here first was asked to report on
the, situation, it informed the State
Department that the Red Sea might
be considered practically free of
italian attacks.
President Roosevelt then declared
the zone to be no longer a combat
area under the Neutrality Act.
Thus, a body of water more IA
miliar to most Americans through
the Bible than for current events
became the focal point of clashing
Axis and American aspirations.
This area, which the Bible says
opened to permit the children of
Israel to escape from Egypt, SIM
mers today under a broiling sun
and the air seems breathless as if
in anticipation of things to come.

Senator Bailey made his state
ment on the Long testimony at the
request of Senator Vandenberg of
Michigan, who said his understand
ing of what Mr. Long had said was
that the Government did not con-
template the transfer of these ships
to any of the bellgerent nations.
But debate brought out that the
President will be at liberty under
the terms of the bill to make such
use of the foreign ships as he may
deem proper

the Senate during the debate on
the bill which would prevent this

Italian vessels now in American

Senator Vandenberg and Senator
Clark, Democrat, of Missouri.
Senator vandenberg declared that

Senator Clark said that Mr.. Long
had laid before the Commerce Com
mittee an agreement between this
country and other American repub-'
lies to put these seized ships in the
inter-American trade.
Senator Pepper, Democrat, of
Florida called attention to the fact
that Secretary of State Hull had
asked that the bill be passed with
out amendment.
For eight years representatives

If the convoy issue is not brought
up, the bill is expected to pass to-
