The change is considered by many

President Theodore Roosevelt. At

the aircraft carrier has usurped the
role Of capital ship both because Of
the job to be done against enemy
island air bases and the fact that
whereas the battlcship can destroy
a target 20 miles away the carriers
planes can reach out 200 miles.
The basic principle, however, re-

objectives rather than fritter it

it was apparent she had seen and
heard about the telegram.
Jean and Mrs. Parkinson sat On

suggested they go to bed. Jean

and stood by the open window a
long time. She looked off to the

sleeping under a cloudless sky.
Suddenly something silver flashed
past her face to sink itself with a
dull thud into the heavy bedroom
door. Jean could see it glinting
across the room in The thin moon

quivering. A note was attached.
