Eight Of 100 Air Schools
Completed for Army

Construction of the 100 new Air

to train 10000 pilots a year, is pro-
ceeding at "recordbreaking pace,
the Engineer Corps reported yes

Already eight have been essen
TALLY completed, while 50 more have
been partially occupied. The pro-
gram is costing the Army $346,-
@oo, 900.
In is first progress report, the
chief Of engineers said the con-
struction is proceeding much faster
than had been expected. The an
swer to that was said to be the en-

In creating new setup. BY dividing

tricts, the force was able to swing

fessional engineers.
The completed Air Corps schools
are at Albuquerque, N. Mex; Char

Nelson suggested, this country must

Should this increased defense ef-

or lowering of the American stand
ard of living and the shifting of

to be made, he said.

he asked. How can we hope 10 sal

If we are walled in, helpless. by
hostile forces which have sworn to
exterminate our economic system
and our social system together.
" - We must measure what we
have done against what we need to
do. The answer, I tell you in ao-
vance, is going to be unpleasant;
as q nation, we have not tried to
do nearly enough; as a nation. we
have not yet stripped for action
The sad fact is that so far we have

Nv DEWITT MACKENZIE,

Nazi Grand Admiral Raeder's
warning to the United States
against aid for Britain perhaps
would have lacked some of its
emphasis had it been delivered to-
day with Germany's proud battle
ship Bismarck lying at the bottom
of the sea, but the issues OF the
moment still remain those involved
in his statement.
Among other things. the admiral
declared American conveys for con-
traband to England would be an
open act of war which would be
met by the guns of the German
Navy If necessary. Such conveys.
he said, wouldn't scare the Nazi
Navy-a remark bolstered by the
sensational sinking Of the British
battle cruiser Hood which went
down under gunfire from the
Bismarck.
Secretary Of State Hull in COM
menting on the admirals statement
accused Germany of trying by
threats to induce the United States
to refrain from any real efforts at
self defense. Presidential Secretary
Early thought Berlin was trying to
becloud Mr.. Roosevelt's fireside chat
tonight
Intended to Intimidate U. S.
Admiral Raeder's threat was, OF
course, made under orders from the
Fuehrer, since he alone can author
lie such statements. Obviously, too
1t was intended partly to intimidate
us and partly to try to create con-
fusion in the minds of the Ameri-
can public.
Beyond this. just what did Nazi-
dom have in mind in making such
statement? Here is one case
where thought reading isn't very
difficult.
First off, it was an effort to
stymie our aid to Britain without
forcing us into the conflict. Ger
many doesn't want to war with
Uncle Sam at this critical juncture
Herr Hitler naturally would be de-
lighted to see us at war with Japan
in the Far East, so to dissipate our
forces and hamper our aid to the
Allies, but he has all he wants on
his hands already in the European
theater.
The Nazi chief recognizes that in
all probability he is going to win or
lose the war this summer. That
doesn't necessarily mean that peace
will be signed so soon, but that the
outcome will be determined. >
Realizes Value Of U. s. Aid.
He recognizes, too, that the out
come depends on American aid to
the Allies. Without our help Britain
and her supporters cannot win.
AS a matter of fact, Britain's posi-
ton Is exceedingly serious as she
waits for our production to get going

stronger, and say that If vital sup
plies do not reach her in the i'm
mediate future she will be in grave
straits.
No wonder. then, that as Hitler
presses in for the kill his great
thought is to halt the American
supplies which are keeping him from
victory.
Thus it is that Germany not only
claims conveying would be an act OF
war, but even asserts that our patrol
system is a belligerent action
Washington takes the position that
such a patrol for the protection OF
the Western Hemisphere is within
the law.
Position Made Clear.
A month ago President Roosevelt
made our position very clear on
this point of patrols. In one of his
press conferences he said in SUBJ
stance that for a year and a half
vessels Of the neutrality patrol had
been operating as far as 1000 miles
into the Atlantic from the Eastern
Shore Of Maryland.
During that time the patrol had
been extended here, and had been
pulled in there. He said 1t was
being extended and would be ex-
tended from time to time.
The extension would go as far
into the seven seas as was necessary
for hemisphere defense. A patro
necessarily wouldn't be confined tt
the Atlantic.
This is the position as we await
President Roosevelt's fireside chat
which is of such great importance
as to have occupied most of his time
for some days.
