 The oil program-the battle for oil-had the most spectacular re- suits in our air operations" Spaatz continued. But the bombing of railways, bridges and balm highways was part of it, too. In a single week in February, 1914, we reduced German plane production from about 1900 a month to 800. That was enough to let us get on top and we stayed there. But the Germans dispersed their plants and when the war ended they had about as many planes as when we got in.
 We continued to desthroy them on the ground and in the air. As oil production went down they had the planes but not the gasoline to send them up. Perhaps if the Ger mans had had more time to go underground and to disperse their industrial operations we might not have won this war"
 For the welfare of the United States, Spaatz believes we should maintain a strong national defense including a first line air force.
 For the next 10 years," he said, T can't see having fewer than 50 to 60 active groups. That would be about 5000 planes and 300, 900 to 400, 900 officers and men,"

12 Ministers Nozi Victims

Twelve Protestant ministers-nine of them fathers of young children --died in Nazi captivity in Hol- land during the German occupa- ton, 1t was revealed in a cable gram just received by Robbins w. Barstow, D. D., director of the service Commission of the World Council of Churches in New York city.

 Dr. Cockburn, a former moder- ator of the Church of Scotland, is remembered in the United States for his visit of 1943, when the spoke before large audiences in many American churches.
 In addition to the story of the 12 pastors who died in captivity, the report on Holland reveals that fifty ministers and their families have Host everything.
 Damage to church property was assessed at 18O00,000 florins-$6,- 840,000. Sixty Protestant church. es have been completely destroyed and forty more are seriously dam too. have suffered seriously.
 Twenty parsonages have been destroyed and fifty are seriously damaged. Twenty youth institutions have suffered damage.

It was the seat of many important inter- denominational conferences.
 Dr. Barstow indicated that help would be sent from the American churches represented in the World Council of Churches toward the supplying of fifty wooden church barracks as requested in the cable gram in which the program of the Dutch churches can again get un- der way in the stricken areas.
