Council because it would not pro-

The Council believes the need

Commissioners. A committee of
the Council membership worked

describing this proposal and a set
was given to each Commissioner
some time before this discussion.
1t was a disappointment to the
Council Committee when the plan
was not given sufficient attention.
1t was felt that the request for the
old jail's use was Sidetracked by
the Commission. The Council Com
mittee was convinced of this fact
when it was rumored that two
other agencies were offered use of
the building.
There was recognition at this
meeting that the County Commits
sion might not be free to release
this building for a Juvenile facili-
ty since it had been condemned
as unSanitary and unsafe for hui

this was probably the first time

Commission might have consider

negligence rather than a express

1t was finally suggested that
since the Commission plan for
renovating the Jail would not
bring immediate relief and since
such a plan was far from desirable
anyway, that other steps should be
taken. One member pointed out
that organizations are always look

Americas top military men
are now following the admir-
able slogan, silence is golden"
The nonstop flight from the
United States to Japan of a
number of B-36 bombers. the
heaviest strategic bombers we
now possess, capable of de-
livering atomic or hydrogen
bombs almost anywhere in the
world. was the only comment
they offered to the announce
ment of two weeks ago that
the Russians now possess the
hydrogen bomb.
The statement by Premier
Malenkov on the H-bomb, con-
firmed later by Chairman
Lewis Strauss of the Atomic
Energy Com mission, has
thrown many American public
figures into a hysterical tizzy.
If Mr.. Malenkov's main pur-
pose in making the announce
ment was to produce propa-
ganda and scare headlines, he
certainly succeeded.
While reSpon sible and
highly placed leaders renewed
their arguments on whether or
not the United States was vul-
nerable to a Red attack be-
cause we may possess fewer
planes than the SovietS, the
high brass remained discreetly
silent.
The facts are that American
military leaders have long an
ticipated Soviet success in
achieving a hydrogen bomb.
They have kept abreast of
Russian plane production,
number of combat planes ac-
tually available, and industrial
capacity with which to supply
more. They know that Indus
trial mobilization in the
u. S. S. r. and it's satellites
has been in full swing for at
least six years. In contrast.
American military production
is still not much in excess Of
peacetime schedules.
But one important factor
which the military men have
not overlooked, and the Amer
ican public has, is the human
element. The quality of COM
bat personnel must be reck-
oned with in the Air Force
even more than in the Army
and Navy. And in this vitality

mans only a little behind,
doesn't seem to be present in
the Russian airmen. no matter
how excellent their aircraft.
Air war is still man-against-
man; it has not yet become
machine against machine.
American flying skill was
amply demonstrated in the
Pacific during the war. Pearl
Harbor had seriously crippled
our Navy'S air arm. What re-
manned was divided between
the Pacific and the Atlantic.
Yet, despite numerical inferi-
ority, we not only held our
own but opened a limited Of
fenSive only a few months
after Pearl Harbor. Eventually.
when new ships began to join
the fleet, we overwhelmed the
Japanese. The victories in the
Pacific were not alone the
result of superior materiel.
They were most of all the
product of superb fighting men.
In air warfare, we are un-
matched by any potential
enemy in the quality of our
individual fighters. That is the
major reason why the Malen-
kov announcement on the Red
H-bomb produced only ripple
among our military leaders.
The news was accepted as
calmly as was the intelligence
received by the Navy that the
Russians had more than 800
submarines, including atomic
powered models.
Evening star., 1953-08-27

important factor, the advan-
tageS lie deciSively on our side.
The box score of enemy
planes destroyed or damaged
in the Korean war is most
impressive. From the time
the Russian jets first appeared
over Korea until the armistice,
American fighter planes de-
stroyed no less than 1,700
MICS. OF this number, 800
are definitely known to have
been destroyed in plane-to-
plane action. On our side, we
lost in such actions a total of
So planes.
Although the Air Force has
been known to eXaggerate,
perhaps unwittingly, some of
its achievements, particularly
the results of ground bombing
missions. there is no reason to
question the accuracy of their
air combat figures. And those
figures are weighty evidence
that the American airman is
manifestly superior to the
Russian. 1t must be noted
here that, while a number Of
Chinese are known to have
been MIG pilots, it has been
conclusively established that
very many Red missions were
flown by "CaucaSianS." very
probably Russian pilots.
We are not so foolish as to
underestimate the courage
and hardihood of Ivan, either
as a foot soldier or as a flyer.
But much more than physical
bravery is required of an &C
complished fighter pilot. 1t is
in this extra something that
the Russians appear deficient.
Throughout World War II
Soviet airmen were undistin-
guished, although the planes
they flew were as good as ours
in fact, many of them were
ours, furnished to Stain
through lend"lease.
Possibly the training of
Soviet airmen has improved
greatly in the eight years since
the end of World War II.
Former Nazi flyers now in
Soviet service may have passed
on some of their tricks. But
that indefinable something

flyer the finest in the world,
