Our Navy Pays The Price

The fighting going around Guadalcanal
Island represents the determined effort of fighting
power to recapture lost ground Heavy losses may be
expected by both sides.
1t is significant that Secretary of the Navy Frank
Knox points out that our naval forces operating in
the Soomons. inferior to those of the enemy This
is serious situation and, while wait for news of
the outcome of the battle might inquire about the
reason for our plight.
The Navy of the United States entered upon our
present without adequate ships to do the job.
While the Navy has been considerably enlarged under
President Roosevelt it remained navy when
the seven-ocean began. This condition was the
result of disarmament folly, policy of national
economy at the expense of adequate defense and the
pacst attitude of many people in the United States
There is no to blink at the truth. American
ships are being destroyed and American sailors
losing their lives around the Solomon Islands because
of foolish national policies, promulgated and followed in
this country after the first World War.
The price is now being paid for economy in years
of peace, promulgated and upheld by Americans who
chanted that nobody would ever attack the United
States Unfortunately the price is not being paid by
the economygrou and the pacifst-group whose poll
cies almost led this country to it's destruction.

'Austerity' Luncheon
Makes Lasting impression

My friend from Australia dropped
in suddenly in an army bomber the
other day, as friends have a way
of doing these days. His business
has kept him in Australia many
years. He likes the folks ''down un-
der" and he's doing a good Job for
our soldiers there and for Uncle
Sam now.
Australia is not fighting a total
war yet" he said, ''but she's a darn
site farther along than America. We
haven't started" he told me.
Because" suggested, I'VE
didn't get the scare they got and
are still getting"
"Yes," he said. Nobody expect
ed the Japs to try to get and hold
Australia, but they did fear that if
there wasn't adequate protection the
Japs could bomb Australian cities
and the big war plants all along the
coast and put them out of business"
The thing he seemed to feel that
had made a great impression on the
"austerity."

dinners-that is what they are

him the menu. He said: I'll take

him, that will amount to three shill-
ings and will leave you sixpence,

produced by the automobile.
The automobile and the good
roads which made its use possible
revolutionized small town life. The
airplane, according to the experts
who manage to snatch a moment
to think beyond bombers and fight
ers to passenger and cargo planes,
is going to change big town life and
perhaps something far more impor-
tant-small-world life.
Recently l had a long chat. with
one of the men who heads up a
plant that is turning out planes for
Uncle Sam. That is fulltime job.
But he is dreamer, too, and the
moment he gets chance to lean
back and think out loud about the
future, he paints an epic picture of
the skyways Of tomorrow.
What the roads did for the auto
mobile the airfields will do for the

The way these dots on the air map

as new seaplane bases and anchor

communities themselves pushed for

waiting for commercial organiza-

nearly twenty-five hundred fields

Airport Development
Meanwhile. with the aid of the
CAA laws were drawn up in many
states which in the year 1912 result
ed in the passage of AZ separate
acts by state legislations designed
to provide municipalities or coun-
ties or other political divisions with
authority to cure defects in or de-
velop airports. Ten states passed
acts to acquire land and construct
facilities and operate them. Some
states built flight strips beside high.

Shuts Views On The War

Field Marshal Jan Christian SHUTS, who won fame
as the leader of the Beers in their with Great
Britain and added to his aures the leader of British
forces in the overthrow of Germany in Africa during
the World War, made some important observations in
his recent speech in London.
On the general trend of the war; he declared that
the defense phase has ended" with final align
ment made, resources developed and modified and
ours still on the increase, those of the enemy the
decline"
With "the situation is rpening for far-reaching
developments" and want hunger and starvation is
increasing the spirit of unrest in the subject countries
to the explosive limits of endurance the general
thinks, lit would be folly to delay, to overprepare and
perhaps miss our opportunity"
He adds, "Nor are we likely to do So"
General SHUTS emphasizes that Russia is bearing
more than her share of the burden" and should
be given help in the fullest measure and with the
utmost speed" He believes that probably no such
losses both sides have been suffered in the his
tory of war" in Russia and adds that appalling
bloodetting which is necessary for Hiter's ultimate
defeat is being administered by the Russians"
Referring to Japan, he says that 'the handwriting
is on the wal for the Japanese as surely for Hers
Germany and predicts that all that will remain of the
spectacular Japanese will be Japan for Japan

smo Chang Kai-shek that China is shifting from the
defensive to the offensive The Chinese leader says
that his country has been preparing general coun-
terofensive and that preparations being strength
ened "step by STEP"
Interesting is his report that the Allies are send
ing large amounts of supplies through routes re-
placing the Burma Road This is important in view of
the general idea that the Japanese have cut off all
supply routes to China, except by air.

there is an obstruction to traffic. In
the air a comparable block is now

OF the commercial planes goes up
the block will have to be increased.
Traffic control is regulated by a

was extended to the point where it

Cruising-At 400
Think back" my air-minded
friend said, ito World War l. Our
maximum speed of war planes was
about 100 miles. Today, 1870 miles
is the cruising speed of our CONNER
cial planes. Today our fast war;
planes make much more than 400
miles an hour. Let's be conserva-
tive and say that in 1865 our COM
mercial planes will be cruising at
at least 400 miles.
I'm my opinion we will race the
sun from New York to Los Angeles
and not do a bad job; leave New
York at noon and be in Los Angeles
at 4 p. m.-their time.
Going in the other direction,
leave New York at S p. M, get to
London for breakfast. Leave Lon
don at eight in the evening and get
to New York in the morning"
1t is easy to see that when London,
New York and Los Angeles are that
near together in terms of time, they
will be that much nearer together in
terms Of thought-in habits, Gus
toms and understanding. There can
be no distant places, in the natural
course of existence, Americans on
business or recreation will move
through Singapore, Tokyo, Buenos
Aires, Rio, Moscow and their citi-
zens will be part of our cities.
When it comes to the makeup Of
our own towns, large and small, it
is easy to see what will happen when
a normal daily committing distance
to work will be stretched to a hum
dred miles. The residential area of
cities will fan out in monstrous cir
cles. There will ha a much more
