BOMBERS (By The Associated Press) The Air Force is working out a completely new bombing attack technigue to fit its ultra-long range B-36 strategic warplan:zs. One of the problems has come to light n the testimony of an Air Force General to the House Appropria- tions Committee. No other existing plane in the Air Force can fly as far as the B-36. Therefore, only a B-36 can be used for reconnaissance essen- tial to any strategic attack. Now the Air Force is confronted with the fact that it must divert part of its B-36 fleet from bombing to reconnaissance missions. e e < FARM PROGRAM 10 BE EXPLAINED 10 COMMITTEE TODAY (By The Associated Press) The head of the Agriculture De- rartment, Charles Brannan, wil go over the administration’s farm program with the House Agricul- ture Committee today, Committee members are largely interested in finding out the cost of the farm proposals, which were outlined by Brannan last week.
