of the known fact that enemy air
craft could block out radar and
slip through without being noti-
fed. In that case, ground observ-
ers would be the only means of
tracking enemy aircraft. Mr.. Lee
pointed to remarks made recently
by General Benjamin W., Child
law, commander-in-chief of the
Continental Air Defense, who said
"It could well be that one or two
observers would catch a low-fy-
ing covey Of aircraft which had
escaped the radar detection net"
Through the nation, over 100000
civilian volunteers are manning
plane spotting posts. Most of the
new posts being organized by the
Air Force are located in states
not previously covered by the
Ground Observer Corps. The rea-
son the watch is being extended
to these states is the known fact
that the Russian long-range bomb
er fleet can now attack any part
of the United States. The Air
Force also is increasing the num-
ber of filter centers in the nation
from 40 to II. Most of these will
be located in states not previous
ly covered. Filter centers, which
are manned by civilian volunteers,
receive and plot reports from
spotter stations. The Corps is
now active in SO states across the

each coast. This is the 24-hour

state now has % active posts
with about 1900 volunteers serv-

posts are on a round-the-clock
watch. Two more posts must be
organized and the stats of the
others greatly enlarged in order
to achieve the states quota of 25
