MAJOR DE SEVERSKY

A ROYAL AIR FORCE raid
on Nuremberg. on the night
of March 3o-31, cost the British
SO aircraft.
This is the biggest loss of the
bomber command in any single
operation.
1t is estimated at 10 per cent
of the forces involved.
That is a high ratio. II Is
especially serious when we re-
call that comparative immunity
from attack was the chief
reason for operations at night.
The theory of nighttime area
b ombing." which had some
validity in the past, is opened
10 doubt now that losses rise TO
such proportions.
There is now every reason TO
expect heavier losses despite
darkness.
THE fact that the natural
L protection" which used to
be offered by fog. clouds and
darkness would peter out was
evident years ago.
"The rapid perfection OF
radio-locator devices is narrow
ing down the margin of i'm
mnnity provided by darkness"
/ wrote in a national magazine
back in August. 1912.
"Once again science IL
winning out over nature, In
effect turning night into day."
And in these dispatches I
found II possible to indicate, five
or six weeks ago, that soon "the
difference betwe cen day and
night operations in the air will
disappear. All bombers will
have to count on fighting their
way to the target and fighting
their way back, day or night,
clear weather or foul. and losses
in planes will continue to grow
until the backbone of the luft-
waite is broken"
A ERIAL warfare has been
n revolutionized by the fact
that now. through electronic
control. artillery concentration
in the air has become feasible.
Many guns of many planes
can focus their fire on the same
moving target, just as naval ar
tillery does on the sea.
Though darkness is losing its
value as protection. il remains
a serious hindrance TO tactical
maneuverability.

not hampered in attacking the

THESE DAYS
: By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY-

TIiE demise of Wendell Willkie
Il as candidate has inevitably
ended an unarranged truce
among Republican aspirants for
the presidency. As long as
-Millkie Was around most Of the
boys hid in the bushes waiting
for a Willkie-Dewey- deadlock at
the convention.
The exception to that, of
course. is John Bricker. who
frankly announced his candidacy
and has been out preaching
sound Republican doctrine in
an intensive campaign over the
country. Stassen is in the navy;
Macarthur in Australia; the
rest were self-appointed dark
horses.
With Willkie gone, the dark
horses are removing the camou-
fiage. Some of them, quite
naturally, would like to succeed
TO whatever strength Willkie
possessed.
Others are hoping that Dewey
and Bricker will be deadlocked
at the convention. Still others
believe that Willkie will, in
spite Of his elimination, be able
to stop Dewey and that another
candidate will be needed.
"nV@ EnCE IF Naxtt TnYcoIg
VI has played a droll role.

are for Dewey. but Edge got

that he would head an unin-
structed delegation which, had

DEAR BOSS:
A MOTHER early breakfast and
"A take-off. Nothing eventful
on the way into the target. We
saw plenty of fighter planes, but
they were all our own. ~s
About Is minutes after leav-
ing the target, the co-pilot called
out that a fighter was coming
in at u o'clock level.
l didn't see him until he was
about 200 yards out, but 1 was
able to get a few short bursts
in before he broke off his attack
and went under our wing.
His guns must have either
damned or ne shot all his ammo
from way out, because when 1
saw him his guns weren't firing.
About five minutes later two
Me 109s started an attack from
out of the sun, forward and to
my left.
They didn't press IL home at
first. but when they did come in
they must have had pretty close
10 so guns firing on them, in
Guiding my two.
Our right wing man got one.
and a large piece came off the
fuselage of the other one but he
got away.
Nothing else eventful happened
until we got 10 the coast. AL
though we saw nine enemy air
craft. they did not bother us.
Our gas was low and one
engine was running, rough. ! had
visions of a cold bath in the
channel, but our pilot took out
