Spy System
Advocated

Washington. Sept. 12-AP-Advo-
Gates Of a central intelligence agen-
cy for this country want that unit
alone to carry on espionage abroad.
This was learned today from
aides of Maj. Gen. William ]. Don
ovan. chief OF the office Of strate-
gic services who has recommended
establishment of some form of CEN
trail peacetime organization.
These aides say Donovan feels
that no executive department of
the government should he allowed
to engage in secret intelligence
abroad because such work covers
a huge field and because secret op-
erations by such persons as reg
ular military or naval attaches
could cause embarrassment.
In the days before the war, much
il not most OF the military informa-
ton abroad was acquired by at
taches at American consulates. Ser
wing in uniform, these officials
were well known in the capitals in
which they were assigned.
II secret intelligence is required
abroad, Donovan is described as
believing, the department needing
the information should request the
central agency for service.
The general is reported to favor
a specific prohibition against the
central agency engaging in any
clandestine work within this coun-
try or having any police power
either at home or abroad.
Donovan's idea is for a director
&c be appointed by the President,
with policy determined on advice
OF a board representing the secre-
taries OF state, war, navy and
treasury.

American pilots. Our job in flying
supplies into Burma was a tough
one with unarmed transports, for
by this time the Japanese had
crossed the Sittang and the IRA
waddy and had taken Rangoon.
They now had columns moving to-
wards Mandalay. Their Air Force
was all over Central Burma, and
the only thing that stood between
them and the capture of all of Bur-
ma was the few American pilots of
the First American Volunteer Group
who had been forced now to base at
/ Lashlo. These were truly the dark
days of Burma.
On April "a. Colonel Haynes and
Colonel Cooper transported a load
| OF ammunition and aviation fuel to
Lashio for the Flying Tigers, and on
their way back an enemy fighter
plane made an attack on their trans
port. Recognizing the ship as an
enemy Zero, Haynes and Cooper left
the flying Of the plane to the CO
pilot and went back into the fuse
lage, to ward off the attack as best
they could with Tommy Guns. Don
Old, the co-pilot, dove the transport
until they were actually skimming
over the jungle trees. These eva
sive tactics kept the Jap ship from
coming up under the vulnerable
transport. Just one of the Jap trac-
ers in that Douglas would have set
it afire.

This either discouraged him or the
enemy ship lost the transport in a
turn, for they got away. But even
considering the bravery of these
flyers in using their meager arma-
ment against fighter ship, it is a
poor policy to shoot Zeros with Tom
my guns; 45-caliber ammunition is
not very effective against aircraft,
but, as usual in a case like this, if
you have only pop-gun to point
at the enemy, it helps the morale.
Most of our pilots had been chosen
from the crews of the thirteen ships
of our original mission. Even with
the loss in morale they had suf-
fered when the attack on Tokyo was
called off, they were still the best
transport pilots / had ever seen.
Colonel Haynes was veteran big
ship pilot, and for the last ten
years he had worked in four-engine
bombers. The records that he had
set with the giant BIS will inspire
the Air Force forever. Here was a
big, cheerful master pilot who never
asked another man to do a job he
wouldn't do himself. We of the A.
B. c. Ferrying Command looked
upon him as the best, and Haynes
will always stand out in my mind
as one of the greatest officers of
our army. This jovial veteran was
ready to do anything to help win
the war, but we all knew he pre-
ferred to kill Japs rather than rustic
