Seversky Doubts Future Value
OF Island Military Air Bases

those stations outright or share
their use with other countries.
But the military phase of the
discussion deserves more serious
thought than it has so far received
Nearly every one assumes that a
vast number of air bases distrib-
uted all over the planet will be
needed to support a great military
air force such as the United States
is likely to possess.
Picture Has Changed.
This simply is not true, and 1t
seems highly desirable that Ameri-
cans should obtain a more realistic
understanding of the matter. We
surely do not want to gum up post
war relations with friendly coun-
tries for the sake of bases which,
from the strictly military vieW-
point, at least, are unnecessary.
When people assume that our air
power will require far-f1ung bases
clear around the globe, they are
usually drawing a parallel with sea
power. Naval operations call for
permanent strong points at strategic
intervals, like Gibraltar, Singapore,
Pearl Harbor, Hong Kong, Corregi-
dor, etc; hence it is taken for
granted that the same need exists
in the case of air power.
But strategic aviation, designed
for striking directly at the heart of
the enemy, will have no use for
Intermediary bases. Their posses
sion may even prove a handicap,
Evening star., 1943-11-05

In that the Job Of defending them
will divert vital air power from the
main task of knocking out the
enemy in his homeland.
viii Be Based at Home.
Air power in the near future will
be fighting directly from its point
of origin, which is to say from the
mainland containing industries, nat
ural resources and manpower. It's
function will be to destroy the cor
responding enemy air power, like
wise at its point of origin. In such
a contest between main concentra-
tions, all in-between bases will be-
come meaningless.
Those who think we shall need
chains of bases, even when they are
politically far-sighted, frequently go
astray on this issue because they are
reckoning on the kind of aviation we
have today, rather than the avia-
ton certain to emerge tomorrow
They forget that most of the in
between bases constructed during
the war were necessary to compen-
safe for the short operational range
of aircraft. Everytime that addition
al range has been built into air.
planes. more of these way-stations
have lost their strategic value. That
Is why Gen. Macarthur now sees
the possibility of using air power in
long massive strokes" instead of
hopping from island to island.
When we have available bombers
with the range to bomb Europe from
American soil, it will make not the
slightest difference whether they
operate from the American main
land or from, let us say, the BAHIA
mas. The extra few hundred miles
will not represent an advantage. On
the contrary. First, it will be i'm
possible to concentrate sufficient avi-
alton at such outlying points for de-
clSlVe offensive action; and second,
the picture will be immensely COM
plicated by the vulnerable overseas
supply problem. The most sensible
and economical procedure will be
to fight from the main bases that
40 VIC hIIlelICdll COllllileIl.
Could Seize Enemy Islands.
To hold an intermediary base you
must be able to protect 1t with avia-
ton equal to everything the enemy
can throw against it. If that base is
close to the enemys main aerial
strength, it therefore becomes in
defensible. The same is true of an
enemY's bases close to our own coun-
try. Suppose a hostile power held
bases in the Caribbean, dependent
on supplies from the other side Of
the ocean. Obviously we would take
them over at Will
Japan found its inundated islands

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
THE SOUTHWEST PACIFIC, July
27.-Presaged by a 600-ton air and
sea bombardment, the American
ground offensive against the stra-
tegic Munda airbase in the Central
Solomons was under way today.
Softened up by weeks continual
bombing, the japanese gave ground

Of >Mundas defenses yesterday, 800
yards in one sector, and while de-
tails of the fighting were lacking it
undoubtedly was the start of the
long-heralded advance.
This first general offensive re-
ported since the battle for New
Georgia Island began four weeks
ago followed a destructive attack
Monday morning by Navy Dauntless
and Avenger bombers which braved
intense ground fire to dump 81
tons Of bombs on pin-pointed gun
positions and personnel targets
around the big base.
An unspecifled number and type

lobbed shells into the Munda de-

bombardment."
