Revolt Of Arabs
In Africa Feared

WASHINGTON, Feb. GNS)
Danger of an Arab revolt in
French North Africa today was
cited by authoritative sources in
Washington as the reason why re-
Taxation of the anti-JewiSh laws
there must proceed gradually.
Reports received by the Ameri-
can government from the military
and diplomatic authorities in
French North Africa indicate that
the danger of an Arab uprising
over repeal of the anti-Semitic
Jaws Is much greater than is gen.
orally realized in this country.
AXIS propaganda broadcasts
have been telling the Arabs day
and night that the Allies, espe-
cially the American authorities
were about TO turn the Jews loose
on them.
If the anti-Semitic laws were tC
be repealed overnight, the Ameri'
can authorities in French North
Africa fear that Axis agents might
succeed in melting the Arabs tC
revolt.
There are estimated 10 be IL
100000 Arabs in North and West
Africa.
Some OF the anti-JewiSh laws
alpeady have been relaxed. High
official sources in Washington say
the others will be repealed gradu-
allv.

IChennault was living with his

his retirement (for partial deaf

His book, "The Role Of Pursuit

theories for the employment OF

brought him some notice in avia'

reborn China OF Chang Kai-shek
realized that an attack by Japan
was inevitable.
The question was how 10 defend
against il? China had neither
the money nor the materials and
crafts 10 build a navy capable OF
challenging the ambitions OF Toxic.
II had the manpower for large
army. but lacked the industries 10
equip this manpower for moderp
war. Chang felt, however, that a
strong air force was a practical
possibility.
Accordingly. after the invasion
OF Manchuria. he asked the British
government 10 install military
aviation system for China. The
British declined on the ground
that such a move might be frowned
on in Toxic.
Chang then turned 10 the
United States government. which
agreed. after considerable parley
10 send an unofficial" mission 10
China.
L. s. MISSION IN 1892
In 1882 this American air mis-
sion arrived in Hangchow under
the leadership of Col. John II
Jouett. who had recently retired
from the United States Army All
Forces.
Jouett. a pioneer in American
military aviation. was a disciple OF
the late General Billy Mitchell
the great prophet of air power
who suffered so long without the
hon0rs that developments of the
second World War would finally
heap upon his name.
With JOuett came nine expert
'enced United States Army pilots
among them Christy Mathewsor
Jr.. son of the famous old pitcher
of the New York Giants. and Har
vey Greenlaw. who later was tC
become second in command of the
American Volunteer Group.

thousands of expert combat fliers,
a few thousand modern fighting

Chennault must have thought OF
his old friend General Billy
Mitchell when he outlined this inn

alone because of China's poverty
in money and in aviatorS, but be-
cause the previous sources of sup

The Japs, far overhead. must
have been puzzled indeed by this
self-slaughter of the innocents.
The Japanese spread their con-
quest of eastern and northern

for two years, driving Chang S

the provisional capital at Hankow

He would know exactly how
many bombers were coming. where
they were from minute TO minute
and how many fighter escorts ac'
accompanied them, if any.
Usually there were no fighters
because the Japs knew well they
would meet no resistance.
When harassed military leaders
and nervous statesmen cried fol

planes to halt this continual insult

against a repetition of the old mis-
takes.

The strangest venture OF TIT

the American Volunteer Group
which sent 80 American boys Il
China long before Dec. Z, 1871

CHANG CONVERTED

At Hangchow, Jouett found a
couple of dilapidated hangers, a
small and bumpy airfield, and an
assortment of Russian and British
airplanes so old and badly cared
for that they offered a greater
threat TO China than to a poten-
tial invader.
He learned that the Chinese re-
garded military aviation as a pro-
fession reserved for the elite OF
money, family, or political power.
But he met there the man named
Chang Kai-shek, who could listen,
and understand.
Chang gave Jouett free hand
for his plan TO build in Hangchow
a Randolph Field" for China
Jouett promptly fired IS per cent
of the pilots in the Chinese All
Force, denoted every officer two
ranks, and raised the pay OF al
fliers from $50 Chinese to SlOC
Chinese per month, to improve mo
rale and protect against squeeze,
