Lindber9h Doubts
British Victory

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6. up
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh said to-
day that the administrators Brit
h-aid bill would weaken Ameri-
can defenses still further" and
might result in invasion of the
United States.
Personally, I don't believe that
England is in position to win
the war" he told the senate foreign
relations committee.
If we deplete our forces still
further, as this bill indicates we
may, and if England loses the war,
then, gentlemen. 1 think we may
be in danger of invasion, although
do not believe we are today.
IF We ever are invaded in Ameri-
ca, the responsibility will lie upon
those who send our arms abroad" !"
He said he opposed the bill be-
cause it endorses a policy that will
lead TO failure in war, and to condi-
tions in our own country as bad or
worse than those we now desire
to overthrow in Nazl Germany
He repeated his preference for a
negotiated peace to complete vic
tory by either Great Britain or
Germany.
He testified after Col Robert R.
Mccormick, publisher of the Chica-
go Tribune, said 1T is fantastic to
suggest that we are in any danger
of attack"
Lindbergh denied that he had
ever taken the position that it
makes no difference to US who
wins the war.
1T does make a difference to us,

blocks.
Members of the police and fire
department were ordered to make
an inspection of all structures in
the area to determine damage and
to ascertain whether the buildings
had been rendered unfit for occu-
pancy.
Electric power was affected, but
soon restored.
Volunteer workers aided author
tiles in making sure that all per
sons living in the area were remov-
ed. The fire company was called
to remove Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Hell
riegal and their three-year-old son
from an apartment in the center
of the affected area.

There were strikes at five plants
engaged in national defense pro-
duction Thursday with negotiations
in the two largest walkouts still
deadlocked. Higher wages and bar
gaining rights were demanded in
each of the disputes in progress.
Most important of the strikers
were the Allis-Chalmers Manufac-
turing co. walkout at Milwaukee,
Wis, where 1900 members of the
United Automobile Workers (CIO)
union were out and the Interna-
tional Harvester CO. dispute at Chi
cago involving $500 Farm Equip

mittee (CIO) members.
Defense production on the whole
was proceeding normally.

Air Depot Mum on
Sabotage Attempt
Involving Plane

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 6. CUP)-
1t was reported today that authori-
ties at Mcclellan field, the U. S.
army's $8,OOO,0OO air depot here,
had uncovered evidence of an at
tempt to sabotage a military plane
at the depot
The post adjutant said he could
neither confirm nor deny the re-
port. All other comment was refused.
However, it was said that guards
at the depot had been strengthened.
It was reported that the attemp-
ed sabotage was of a nature easily
detected. The type of plane damag-
ed was not known. 1t was said wing
surfaces and ailerons were damaged.
The air depot's ships on hand
usually consist of transport and
cargo planes, fight attack bombers,
and two or three primary training
planes.
However, it is a repair center for
west coast military planes, and ham
dies extensive overhaul jobs that
could involve any of the types OF
ships in use.
A huge four-motored flying for
tresS is at the depot, having flown
from Ladd field. Fairbanks, Alaska,
for installation OF equipment to
combat extremely low temperatures.
The depot's engine and propeller
repair departments employ large
numbers of civil service workers, in
addition to regular enlisted men.

a great difference" he said. But
I do not believe that it is either
possible or desirable for us in Amer
lea to control the outcome of Euro
pean wars.
when 1 am asked which side !
would like to have win, it would be
very easy to say the English But,
gentlemen, English victory, if it
were possible at all would necessi-
tate years of war and an invasion
of the continent of Europe. I be-
lieve this would create proStration,
famine, and disease in Europe-and
probably in America-Such as the
whole world has never experienced
before.
That is why I say that prefer
a negotiated peace to a complete
victory by either side :.
L do not believe that the danger
to America lies in an invasion from
abroad. I believe it lies here at
home in our own midst. and that
it is exemplified by the terms OF this
bill-the placing of our security in
the success of foreign armies, and
the removal of power from the rep
resentatives of the people in our
own land"
He said our army and air force
are poorly equipped on modern
standards" and that our navy is in
urgent need" of new equipment.
What we are doing in following
our present policy, is giving up an
ideal defensive position in America
for a very precarious offensive posi-
ton in Europe. I woulo be opposed
to our entering the internal wars
of Europe under any circumstances"

Truck Makers to Keep
Production Pace Up
Dodge Chief Sees !
Great Need for
Vehicles

Passenger car manufacturers
may be having the filters wonder
ina Just how they will como out
of the produc I ion curtailment
muddle but the truck makers need
have no worries over their future.
A record number Of motor trucks
will be needed, along with railroad
and waterway facilities. to handle
the country's about defense and
domestic activities, predicted L. d.
Cosart, Dodge truck sales chiefs
after a six weeks series of con-
ferences and surveys in cities from
coast to coast.
Demand Still Rising
1--WE talked with dealers, man.

ers everywhere we went" said
Cosart. I'VE found industry

culture n exerting extra effort

mer that q heavy crop move
ment must take place, IL going

be put In service.
Demand for motor trucks IN
rising steadily"
May Cut Losses
II appears likely, therefore. that
the great volume of truck produc-
ton will continue, no matter how
much the output of passenger cars
is curtailed. The first half Of
1871, an estimated production Of
$50. 900 units was shown. COM
pared with 100000 for 1910, an
increase OF AZ per cent.
The largest manufacturers of
passenger cars are also the larg-
est producers of trucks, General
Motors. Ford and Chrysler. The
increase in the truck business il
expected to Offset much OF the loss
incurred by curbing passenger car
production. Although most of the
truck volume is for army use. and
the margin of profit is narrower
than for private firms. the COM
-panies are optimistic on this phase
of the business.

Complicated Panels

Planes instrument panels are
fast becoming more and more con-
fusing to the eye of the layman.
There is, for example, the gyro-
pilot or Iron mike" which re-
lieves the human pilots from the
manual operation of the plane
controls; and the directional gyro
and the gyro-horizon which give
the pilot a direct and accurate
picture of his course and the alti-
tude of his plane even though he
is flying in the overcast or on top
of the clouds where there are no
visual reference points.
In 1928 the Sperry Gyroscope
