There is no mystery about
the popularity of the American
mystery. Year after year the
"Whodunits' hold their fans and
the announcement of a new re-
lease by a favorite author is
cheered like the sinking of
Jap ship. There is no season
for mysteries.
Picking mystery novel for
a reader is reviewers most
difficult task. Probably no one
agrees with your selections.
Some mstery fans prefer clever
detectives, and try to beat the
sieuth to the solution. Others
want ghost or horror stories.
There are others, too, who just
want a few murders, a couple
of chuckles and not too much
mental exercise. The war has
brought another old f~vorite -
the spy story - into renewed
popularity.

Checkup on the seven high
officers just named to the new
General Board of the Navy re-
veals not one of these officers
is from the Navy's Bureau of
Aeronautics, and not one has
had training as a naval aviator.
Several have commanded naval
forces which have had air arms
in the command, but none is con-
sidered an authority on aviation.
According to naval aviation
enthusiasts, this is typical of the
representation which aviation
has in the top command OF the
u. S. Navy in the predominantly
aerial warfare of today. Admiral
Ernest j. King, commander-in-
chief of the U. S. fleet, is en-
titled to wear pilots wings. But

. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTONe

the secretary of the navy the
number and types of ships and
aircraft proper to constitute the
fleet, and the building program
that shall be recommended to
Congress each year not only for
ships and planes but also for ma
val yards, stations and bases.
The duty with regard to aviation
is elaborated upon:
THE General Board shall con-
slider and recommend to the sec
rotary of the navy the general
military characteristics which
should be embodied in the de-
sign for new service classes
(types) of aircraft"
There you have the crux. This
is the board that, even if it does
not originate the designs end or
ganization for the Bureau of Ae-
ronautics. at least has the veto
power over such matters as far
as making recommendations to
the secretary and to Congress
is concerned.
Who has been appointed to the
board? Three full admirals,
Hepburn, Hart and Bloch, all of
whom were retired and called
back to active duty by the war
emergenc.'; two rear admirals,
Sexton and Rowcliff, of whom
the former was retired; two cap
tains, Pence and Mahoney, of
whom the former was retired
and the latter is secretary. Only
the two captains are under 60.
Five of the seven officers are
retired, men who may have been
considered great stuff back in
World War One, but who are
now called upon to determine
naval policy for the somewhat
different World War Two.
"THE UNPROBABILITY"
There is another recent in
stance of how this Navy hangs
onto its traditions and it has a
bearing on this subject of reluc-
lance to give the air arm its full
and proper recognition. This
may be unfair to the extent that
the ideas of lot of people have
changed considerably in the last
20 years.
In the Navy Department files
there is a report on the expert
mental bombing of the old bat
tleship Indiana, in October, 1920.
This was before the famous Gen.
Billy Mitchell bombings of bat
tleships off the Virginia capes in
1921, but it was none the less
important.
The report from the director
of gunnery, in charge of the
experiments, concluded with
this pertinent paragraph of a
memorandum to the secretary of
the navy:
In a general way, it was
found that the damage to mater
ial from aerial bombs was local,
that personnel in unprotected
positions within the blast area
would be destroyed, that per-
sonnet in closed and armored
turretS would probably not be
incapacitated, and considering
the probable effect of defense
gunfire against aircraft at the
low altitude necessary in order
to be accurate with heavy aerial
bombs against a rapidly moving
target at sea, the entire expert
ment pointed to the improbable
ity Of a modern battleship being
either destroyed or completely
put out Of action by aerial
bombs"
The report is signed by Capt.
w. d. Leahy, then director of
the gunnery exercises, now Ad-
miral w. d. Leahy, retired, re-
