In Air Offensive,
Gen. Arnold Says
Americans TO Operate
Under Own Command;
Superiority Predicted

LONDON, June 1 (UP).-Lleut.
Gen. Henry II. Arnold, chief OF
the United States Army Air Corps,
said today that force of United
States Army Air Corps fighter and
bomber planes soon would join the
British Air Force in battering
Germany.
I'VE shall hit the enemy hard
and relentlessly until his mill
tary power has been broken"
Arnold promised.
He revealed that he and his
associates visiting London had al
most concluded talks with Prime
Minister Churchill. Air Chief Mar
shall Sir Charles Portal and other
British leaders. He said that his
talks "aimed at further devel.
Iopment OF the original agreements
between the British and United
States governments looking TO the
maximum impact of our combined
air strength upon the common
enemy"
Referring TO the recent state
ment by Gen. George c. Marshall
chief of staff of the United States
Army, that American troops will
land in France, Arnold said:
ut Is obvious no offensive
against Nazi-occupied Europe
can succeed without air supe-
riority, and we mean to have it."
TWO COMMANDS
Describing the vast scope OF
American plans to join in the of.
fensive against Germany. Arnold
said the American air forces would
staff American fields in Britain
with their own ground crews
pilots and component units.
They will be under a separate
American command which will CO.
operate with the British.
"We are determined TO get
every possible fighting plane into
the fight" Arnold said.
He said the chief consideration
of his talks here had been to in
sure that the increasing demands
of American units on American
aircraft production did not impair
the British offensive, now or in the
future.
