WASHINGTON -UR)-Aero-
nautical experts are just begin
ming TO realize the value of the
helicopter, according to j. r.
Fredland, an instructor at the
u. s. Naval Academy.
Writing for the authoritative
u. S. Naval Proceedings, Fred
land denied criticisms of the
helicopter's ability TO stand up
i'm foul weather" and pointed
out possibilities for several types
OF service.
Since its landing speed can
be as little as one foot per min
ute, landing in a fog, for ms
lance, would have none of the
terrors Of crackup that the pilot
faces in the ordinary plane. In
case of motor failure, the hell
copter pilot disconnects the ro-
tor blades from the engine and
they serve as a swiftly rotating
parachute for the whole plane"
Discussing its use for combat
ing the submarine, he observed:
I'VE are just on the verge of that
as practical possibility"
The helicopter already de-
veloped," he continued, "can
take off and land in an area
barely larger than the diameter
of its rotor. Even the most
heavily loaded freighter can af-
ford to swap 25 feet of open
deck space for the advantage of
air protection from lurking sub
marines.
Furthermore, the efficiency
of the yacht patrol and other
auxiliary services would be
enormously enhanced by having
air eyes. Portable, collapsible
flight decks are within the realm
of possibility"
Although lacking the speed
and maneuverability Of a fight
ing plane, the helicopter can be
adapted for anti-ub, communica-
tions, coast guard work, and
mail delivery at sea, Fredland
pointed out
The "helicopter is easily pi-
loted," he said. at can carry
anti-submarine bombs or depth
charges; above all, it can be
flown from a postage-stamp-size
flight deck. II combines the
features Of a blimp with more
desirable compactness and needs
only one man as crew" Fredland
wrote.

address at all. The salutation
was simply My Dear Emma,
the signature simply Bill" The
only clue was a reference in the
letter to Uncle jim. Army
Postal Service checked every
nurse in England named Emma,
but none of them had any Uncle
jim. Then they checked the En-
mas who had been in England
and sailed TO Africa. Eventually
they got the right gal.
The most frequent mistake in
wolves V-mail. More than 500
V-mail letters arrive every day
without any address at all. The
address box at the top of the "
mail form is either completely
blank or filled in with the send
er's address. Major Humes fig
ures the error is due TO the fact
that some people think they've
done all that's necessary when
they write the soldiers name
and address on the outside of
the V-mail form. They forget
that the outside OF the V-form
isn't photographed and that any
writing thereon stays right in the
United States. (These letters get
to England because they're sort
ed according to the address on
the outside of the envelope be-
fore being opened and photo
graphed). Army Postal Service
cannot do anything with these
letters except return them TO the
senders.
