DAHLIA ineed some | 000 THE EVENING STAR, The War Over the Air By Will Irwin. Chapter IX—*“The United Air Service.” In previous installments I have tried to set forth impartially the danger to our cities and to machinery of national life which might lie in one swift, intelligently organized attack from the air; and I have shown that the best defense against an airplane is another airplane. If we fall to force aerfal dlsarmament, we may day a cohesive air fleet built and trained to meet this danger. So, at le: , say the airmen. turally ‘and humaly, perhaps, the old-line officers of the Army and Navy do not agree with this view. Air- planes are important, they say, but not supremely important. The In- fantry with its auxiliary services on land, and the battleship at sea still remain the lords of battle. If you ask any unprofessional opinion on this point, I will say that I lean to the side of the airmen rather than to that of the old-line officers. Mitchell's View Stated. Given this danger of overwhelming aerial attack, how shall we meet it, asks General Mitchell and his parti- sans. except by training and drilling our Air Service as a whole? When an isolated country lke this knows that the enemy is advancing by land or sea, it has at least a few days to organize for defense. The breathing space In event of acrial attack might be a matter of hours. We should doubtless need to t plane we had: tory at the b cause incalculable damage tan life and property, whole issue of the w In this emergency. what would probably happen? s and mirals, believing as military men will that In their own spcetal arms of the service lie salvation, would be likely to hold on to thelr airplanes. There would be no time to debate the ques- tion; it would have to be done on the instant or not at all. And even| If the sea forces and land forces con- sented to give up their afrcraft for *he emergency, you would have two separate units which had never ma- neuvered together. Tactics and strategy are becoming as important in air operations as in | land or sea fighting. Iven in the face of the enemy, there would rise that question which hampers efi- clency whenever units of the Army and Navy join operations—which arm kas procodence, which is in command At tuis moment. no one know whether the Army or Navy is sponsible for our coast defense. in every air- air vie- not only | to «.nu-i | | | | but settle the T. Three Elements Involved. The land is one element, the sea another. And the air is still another. You would not expect a general of Infantry, artillery or engineers to go aboard a battleship and command a flect action. But airmen, practi- tioners of a new technique, must take the commands of men who never made a landing or manipulated a joy- stick. No man on the General Board of the Navy or in high command of naval aviation has qualified as a pilot There are more than 100 members of the army general staff. Of these, only | two are fiyers. In these circum stances, the air will never have its chance. There is, too, the matter of appro- priations. Our alrplanes are going to pleces with hard wear. The Euro- pean natlons are on the upcurve. We are on the down. We have the fac- tories and the mechanical talent to build airplanes as good as the best. But the estimates for both Army and Navy are made, respectively, by the | general staff and general board of the two services. It is they—not airmen— who declde what proportions of the | money should go into aviation. The Army and Navy always ask for more than they expect to get. Congress takes | the estimates and begins to slash them. i The battleship commanders of the gen- | cral board, the artillerymen and Infan- try of the general staff fight like pi- rates for the’= special arms: there is none to fight for aviation. At least, 5o the flying men. The Navy requested an aviation appropriation of $20,000,- for 1926; f{t got $5,250,000. Further, who are the judges on new designs of service airplanes? To a great extent, men who never flew! Dupiieation Is Seen. ‘When the Navy settles on a new de- sign for a battleship hull, the Army on a new gun—it's right. When these mere earth-men adopt a design for an aeroplane or an accessory—it may be | right or it may not. Still further, the two separate branches of the service, whatever they themselves may say, are duplicating effort and wasting money. The senior services respond first that the aviation faction exaggerates the danger from the alr. ondly, the aeroplane, while most indispensable, is still an auxiliary. One cannot bring the army to grips with the enemy, join a general action at sea or even fight a battery, without aeroplanes. But fiyers, to be efficient in these circumstances, must have an ingralned knowledge of army and navy tactics. A spotter who didn’t naval operations,” said “would be nearly useless in action.” Both Army and Navy announce the same general policy for the future. Part of their corps of officers are to be trained as flyers, transferred to the line, and through their whole profes- sional careers educated with a view'to understanding and commanding opera- N understand an admiral, In the Lowg Run It Pays to Be Thoughtful That is why we have established our good rep- utation as Careful Morti- cians, Our knowledge of the human ties of sympa- thy enters into every bome. to which we are called.

More Money Advocated. As for Quplication of effort, the ser- vices will eventually eliminate that. As for money, the answer is stmple. Let ‘ongress come through with larger ap- nropriations. The general attack from the air—it will come, If ever, after a wrfod of strained international rela- tions which will serve as @ warning. In that period, given that the Army and Navy air services are in themselves eificlent units, we shall have time to arrange for co-ordination and to settle the question of command. Both sides point to the unified air service of Great Britain as a bright example or & dreadful warning. In the middle of the war the British found themselves hampered by friction he- tween army and navy aviation. The navy lay in the Firth, awalting an emergence of the German fleet—which seemed at the time unlikely. Its ad- mirals were hanging on to a numbe of planes which the army needed badly for dcfense of London or for battle In Flanders. Army and navy supply departments were bldding against each other for material, thereby running up prices and causing uncertainty. So the British created a new department of the air under a cabinet minister equal in rank with the secretarfes of war and na They iept this system after the war. Three-quarters of the British Army and Navy oppose it, I believe: but more than three-quarters of the aviators favor it Last year. the Council of Imperial De- fense sat upon the question of return- ing to the old plan. It decided finally In fuvor of maintalning the in- dependent air service. It did, how- ever, modify the scheme a great deal. Seventy per cent of the flyers must henceforth be naval fiyers. Aviators will be leased out, so to speak, for long terms with the army and navy, giving the arm to which they are attached time to educate them in its own tradi- tions and tactics. Japans System Like U. S. Italy, by command of Mussolini, h adopted the British plan. France is betwixt and between. Her rather in- ferfor naval aviation is under com- mand of the admiralty: her strong army, civilian, and defensive aviation work under a separate department Japan sticks, as we do, to the old system. “And, the conservatives, “that's significant. The Japanese, when they start anything, find the best way, as proved by the experience of other mna- tions, before going ahead. Why, then, didn’t they follow the British plan?

Declaring that it should be the de- sire of a'l who would have the Gov- ernment organized in the most effi- clent manner to co-operate in a non- partisan way with the President in the reorganization of the Government departments. Senator Pat Harrison, Democrat, of Mississippi, today said that he believed President Coolidge had authority under the law to trans- fer the Patent Office from the In- terior Department to the Department of Commerce, and that he was “de- lighted to have him take that action. Senator Harrison pointed out that when the Patent Office was created the power was vested In the Presi- dent to make the transfer if he saw fit to some other department, adding that he did not belfeve the President had authority to make other trans- fers. Senator's Statement. He said: “I noticed in the papers that I have been quoted as being opposed to the action of the President in the transfer of the Patent Office from the Department of the Interior to the Derartment of Commerce. I have made no criticism of the course pursued by the President In this mat- ter, but, on the contrary, believe that he has the authority under the law to make the transfer and am delight- ed to see him take that action “As one of the members of the joint commission on reorganization, 1 was poth surprised and pleased to find from the very thorough investigation that the commission made, that there were as few overlapping of powers upon the part of the departments and bureaus and as little ineficiency in Government operation as there are. I had an impression before this work was undertaken that a thorough over- hauling of governmental bureaus was desired, that they might work with greater efficiency and economy. That impression was gained from the con- stant creation and enlargement of bu- reaus as the business of the Govern- ment developed. The recommendations of the commission, however, testify to the prudence and care of the Con- gress In the creation and enlargement of bureaus ew Changes Recommended. When the recommendations of the joint commission are studied, it will be seen that even in those changes it will be im- to effect any great saving. The most important recommendation made by President Harding was the co-ordination of the Army and Navy Departments. “This suggestion, however, was op- posed by both the Secretaries of the Navy and War, and was not in- cluded in the recommendations of the commission. The two most im- portant recommendations of a ma- Jority .ot the commission were the Ccreation of a Bureau of Public Works and a Department of Education and Re- lief. The first sought to have trans- ferred to it the Bureau of Public Roads. the supervising architect’s office and the Reclamation Service. To the second it was sought to transfer all the agencles of the Federal Government pertaining to education, as well as the Public Health Service and Federal activities for veterans' relief.

Hopes for Further Actfom. “As one of the minority party mem- bers of the commission, I certainly would not oppose the President tak- ing action, but would be very glad to see him, wherever the authority vests nim with power, make such transfers by executive orders that will carry out the other minor recommendations | of the commission. From my cursory | examination, however, 1 do mnot be-| lieve that he has the authority to make other transfers. When the Patent Office was created the power was then vested in the President to make the transfer, if he saw fit, to some other department. “Throughout the consideration of the question affecting reorganization the commission has worked in a non- partisan way, and it certainly has no disposition at this time to allow poli- tics to enter. It should be the desire of all to have the Government organ- 1zed in the most efficient manner and L0 effect every saving to the taxpayer possible.
