PROPER Use OF
FORTRESSES NOW
BEING DISCUSSED
OFFICIALLY STATED THAT
THEY ARE NEEDED FAR
MORE IN EUROPEAN OR
NORTH AFRICAN AREA
tBy Associated Press,


WASHINGTON. May 4.-The
great American Flying Fortress
es. with their precision bombing
from lofty heights. are needed
far more in fhe European or
North African theatres of war
than they are in the southwest
Pacific. it was stated officially
here today.
The FortresseS have accom-
plished feats that have proved
destructive to japanese ships and
planes on many an occasion, but
as high-flying bombers are not
needed in the southwest Pacific
nearly as much as they are in
Europe, and as the Liberators,
which carry a much heavier load
of bombs than Flying Fortresse5,
and also bombs of far more de
structive power, they will be
used in blasting the Japs and q
Fortresses will be switched to
England and North Africa.
The displacement of Fortress
es in the southwest Pacific by
Liberators has already been
started. The devastation of the
big Liberator bombs has been
noted at Jap bases in New Brit
ian, New Guinea, the northern
Solomons and New Georgia Is
lands.
