To the fixed items Of equip

On top of this, there must be
a steady stream of requirements
to take care of day-to-day wear

clash, the Wastage is tremendous.
A week of heavy fighting may
mean losses of more than one

ROCKET PLANES
AFTER WAR SEEN
Scientist Says Craft OF To-
day Have About Reach
ed Top Speed

WASHINGTON, Dec. s. R -
Today's planes have just about
reached their speed limits and
scientists now are striving to per-
feet an airship without tail or
propeller which can streak through
the air like a rocket.
A "flying wing of this type
may emerge from the laboratory
stage Gin the not too distant fu-
ture," says DR.. H. L. Dryden OF
the u. S. Commerce Department.
The aerodynamics expert said
three different groups, well fl
nanced, are working on the propo-
sition and have found that the prob
lem of distributing weight has
been one of the big difficulties.
Jet propulsion-power provided
by sharp gusts such as rockets
PRODUCES the principle behind
the propeller-less plane.
Scientists the world over for
many years have been seeking
to apply the rocket or jet pro-
pulsion theories to aircraft. Re-
search has been intensified by the
war.
Much of the pioneer work is al
ready done.
An Italian experimental plane
powered this way is reported to
have flown a considerable dis
lance. Numerous patents involving
the principle have been issued in
the U. S. and in other countries.
1.-THE propeller does very well
in speeds up to. say. 400 to 500
miles per hour" said DR.. Dryden.
Beyond that range. difficulties
may be expected. Ultimately we
may look for the propeller-less
plane. So radical a development
is not likely to come quickly. In
the midst of war, with an entire
industry geared to produce en-
ormous numbers of conventional
aircraft power plants, it would
not be possible to switch to a
wholly different form of propul-
sion."
The flying wing is coming
along" though not yet "out OF
the woods" he added.
"The numerous problems involv-
ed in such a departure from con.
ventional design are not insuper-

-[P)- Australian troops and artil-

counterattacks before Wareo on
New Guinea's Huon peninsula Sat-
urday and then frightened their
lines in a developing enlightenment

Of that stubbornly-defended noun
Fighting was centered in a half
mile area separating Wareo from
previouslycaptured Kuanko to the
southeast. The Australians here
were battling hardened victors of

four bitter miles north to the out
skirts of Wareo in a week of Jungle
skirmishing.
They caught the full weight of
the enemy counter-attacks and re-
pulsed them with the help of artil-
lery.
Air power continued to lend a
hand to the ground advance, rip
ping the enemy's rear positions a.
