It turns out, is lot different from
the old street-corner sport of dis
tinguishing between Marmon and
q Stearns-Knight.
When your Fortress and a fighter
plane are coming together at a
combined rate of 900 miles an
hour, you can't wait to tell by
the radiator cowling or the wheel
pants whether it's Focke Wulfe or
a Spitfire.
You must have dozens of different
characteristics of every plane filed
away in your mind so you can haul
them out and formulate a quick
comparison.
Is it low wing, medium wing,
shoulder-high wing, or high wing?
How many engines does it have?
Are the engines centrally mounted,
underslung. or what they call "ap-
pearing underslung?" Is the fuse
lage round, oval, pear-shaped, box
shaped or stirrup-shaped? Are the
wings tapered on the leading edge
or the trailing edge? Does the
fuselage extend back of the tail
assembly, and does the tail assembly
have a V cut-out?

Is regrettable that the Yorkshire

twice as dogmatic as Scotchman's,

He'd been on IL bombing opera

assigned to this school to give
novice Fortress crews the benefit of

He relished the assignment. "I

oblivious of the smallness of the
classroom, he bawled out data like

Central Administration
Of Merchant Shipping
Urged by Senators

Centralized control of mer-
chant shipping operations is
necessary if this country is to
get the full benefit of available
tonnage, in the opinion of a
Senate Military Affairs Subcom-
mittee which has been studying
various phases Of the war effort.
In report filed yesterday with
the full committee the subcom-
mittee headed by Senator Kill
gore. Democrat, Of West Virginia
mixed praise Of shipbuilding
achievements with what it said was
the failure in some instances to
utilize fully all cargo space and
urged all shipping operations be
placed under the War Shipping Ad-
ministration.
The report also emphasized that
concentration Of shipping in the
Atlantic for the war against Hitler
is three times as effective as using
the tonnage in the Pacific.
Three times as many troops can
be transported. three times the VOL
ume Of munitions can be carried
to batter down the powerful en-
emy" by centering operations in
the Atlantic, it was explained.
In advocating a single control of
cargo vessels under the War Ship
ping Administration, the report said
that at present less than half of
the 100000 tons Of dry-cargo ton
mage is administered by this agen-
cy, with the remainder handled by
the Army, Navy and other agencies.
Amplifying, it was pointed out
that 100000 tons are administered
directly by the Army and Navy;
another 100000 by the Army and
Navy under ALLEGATION by the War
Shipping Administration, and the
remaining 100000 tons, devoted to
lease-lend and commercial ship
ments. is controlled by the War
Shipping Administration.
Thus, the report said, I'VE have
two separate merchant fleets, each
operating independently of the
other. The result Of divided re-
sponsibility is failure to utilize our
shipping resources.
Trained technical personnel is
duplicated. There is competition
for waterfront harbor facilities
where there should be planned allo-
cation. Moreover. divided RESPONSE
bility between military and civilian
administration prevents that proper
balancing and blending OF cargoes
which is so essential for maximum
utilization OF our cargo capacity" p"
In support Of its statement on the
triple effectiveness Of shipping in
the Atlantic as compared with the
Pacific, the report continued:
The round-trip to Britain requires
so to IS days. The round-trip to
Australia from the West Coast takes
more than six months. From the
East Coast the turn-around time to
India and the Far Pacific is more
than 200 days.
Thus" the report said. three
times as much shipping is required
to transport and maintain the same
number Of men in the Far Pacific
as in the European theater."
Noting that We have 100000 more
deadweight tons-because of dimin-
ished U-boat sinkings and record
breaking shipbuilding-than figured
in 1943 plans, the report said not
even all on ships would be able
to get the necessary troops and sup
plies overseas unless all shipping
agencies increase and unite their
effolts to improve ship utilization. .

racy would continue after the war,
although it might require some
structural changes in some coun-
tries. Excelsior quoted him further:
But one fact Is certain: To func-
tion properly democracy needs an
educated people. And the people
need a good chief. Some educated
men have been good leaders and
some uneducated ones have been as

Never has so much been ac-
complished with so little" Senator
Brewster added. His use of para
troopers at Lac was one of the mir
acles of modern warfare"

bell rang the end of the radio ses-
sion.

British Oil Plants Laq
In Persia, Brewster
Tells Radio Forum

American companies in the Per-
sian Gulf are increasing their pro-
duction while the British refineries
there are far below capacity, Sen
ator Ralph o. Brewster, Republi-
can, of Maine declared last night
as he took issue with President
Roosevelt's press conference state
ment that access to the area meant
that a larger and fairer share of
British oil would be used in the
United Nations war effort.
The Senator spoke on the Ma
tional Radio Forum arranged by
The Evening Star on Station
WMAL and the Blue Network
Back from a journey to Ameri-
can fighting fronts around the
world. Senator Brewster went on
the air with Senator Richard Rus
sell, Democrat, of Georgia, chair
man of the group of five Senators
who made the trip.
Boykin Questions Both.
Both were questioned before the
microphone by Edward Boykin,
executive secretary of the Thomas
Jefferson Bicentennial Commission,
who introduced and interrogated
the speakers. Mr.. Boykin sees
a splendid opportunity in the Ma
tional Radio Forum to emphasize
the theme, History in the Making" :"
and thus to connect current events
Evening star., 1943-10-07

with historical events of the past
In presiding last night at the 728th
forum broadcast, he introduced a
dramatic touch by signaling the
opening OF the discussion with the
sound of changing quorum bells at
the Capitol. The program came to
a close on the same note, the bells
marking adjournment" of the ses-
sion until next Wednesday evening
Senator Brewster termed as graf
flying" the statement made by the
President Tuesday in which Mr.
Roosevelt said that the opening of
the Persian Gulf meant that a
larger and fairer share of British
oil would be used
But" Senator Brewster added
"one is still puzzled to find proposals
being seriously considered to in
crease the output of petroleum prod
ucts from the reserves in the Per-
sian Gulf controlled by American
companies, while at the time of our
visit the output of the British re-
fineries was far below capacity. An
increase of 40 per cent in refined
output and definite increase in
crude output was possible without
increase of facilities.
Halls U. S. Firms Cooperation.
THE patriotic cooperation Of the
American companies in tapping
their reserves in this area is very
gratifying. But in view OF the tre-
mendous contribution of America to
the war effort thus far in the pc
troleum field as a result of the
strategic location of our reserves, it
seems most unfortunate that in the
Persian Gulf again American re-
serves must be further tapped to
supply the current need instead
of the readily available British
sources"
Russell Describes Trip.
The IS days and the 10000 miles
OF the trip passed very quickly
said Senator Russell when he took
the microphone. I'VE travelled
through every theater We slept in
palaces and pup tents. We ate
with commanding generals and with
the enlisted men at their mess
We talked to men in every branch
of the service of every rank and
grade, with Gen. Eisenhower and
Gen. Macarthur and innumerable
buck privateS. We watched the
5th Army in North Africa as it
finished its intensive training in
amphibious operations for the in
vasion Of Italy. We saw Ranger
units engaged in strenuous work
preparing for jungle fighting with
the cunning and brutal Japs."
Mr.. Boykin's first question was
on the duration of the war.
Il see no chance Of the European
war ending before next year." said
Senator Russell, "and I don't see
how the war in the Pacific can
end next year. 1t will take until
1945 at least to lick the Japs."
Pacific Tempo Slow.
Senator Brewster said, THE
tempo of the war in the Pacific
has been slow 1t may move more
rapidly from now on. I hope the
German home front may collapse.
The Japs will have to be crushed
into the ground
"Exterminated," added Senator
Russell.
They were asked about Gen. Mac
Arthur.
"A military genius said Senator
Russell. I'VE spent three days in
his headquarters. He did a great
deal for his country with very linn
tied equipment. He was asked to
