Not a superfluous man is desired. Neither should a Patrol start forth a man short of the requisite number to make the necessary reconnaissance and insure that all important informa- tion will reach the commander. It may be necessary for Patrols to fight their way.to the designated point by driving off ‘enemy Patrols. 1z there is a prospct of such clashes, the Patrol must be stronger than other- wise, and invariably provieton must he made ‘for the escape of one man to return with essential information. ‘While it ig in general the business of a Patrol to execute Its' purpose and, if possible, avoid fighting, the purpose may be of such a nature that it'must be executed whether this requires fighting or not. If such be the case, as has just been said, the strength bf the Patrol when sent out must be fixed proportionately. On the other hand, if the purpose is to gain information only, and of & general nature, a small Patrol is bet- ter than a large one. For it moves TITANIC AIR FLEET TO BLIND GERMANY 0. 8. May Send Thousaad of Planes to European Front ‘Washington, ' June Baker, officers of the War College and Brig.-Gen. George O, Squier, chief signal officer of the army, the German war machine in France by means of a tremendous American ing opposing aircraft and ‘“blindin the eves of the German armies.” The plan, elaborate but practical in every respect, has progressed to the point of exchanges between the American, British and French army leaders. The - secrecy which has shrowded it no longer is regarded as necessary. In fact, details of the plan must be made public because it is up to Congress to provide the neces- sary funds. General Squier by reason of his position as organizer and so-called manager of the nation’s future avia- tion forces, is not free to discuss the matter. There is however, unques- tionable authority for the statement that he indorses the advocacy of an immediate and enormous increase of this nation’s aviation forces for the specific purpose of concentrating so many thousand battle machines on the firing line that German artillery will be rendered sightless. The Ger- man military leaders then would be forced to continue the fight ‘’blind- folded” against the Allies, 3 The importance of this would be ap- preciated at once, it is asserted, if the Public could see some of the latest messages which have. come from French and British strategists now conducting the war. General Squier has been making advance prepara- tions for this contingency for weeks. The groundwork is laid for putting the actual plan inta full operation and all, that is necessary is for Gen- eral Squier to receive word from Sec- retary Baker to “go ahead.” Before Secretary Baker car give this au- thority Congress must pledge the necessary funds which are estimated at gbout $1,000,000,000. ‘ The bureau of ordinance of the war department has received funds of al- most $1,500,000,000 for work on heavy ordnance. This is all important but in the opinion of those interested in thé aviating program it cannot have a direct bearing on the war operations for almost two yéars, It will be some time before American troops can be concentrated to make their presence felt in the struggle. But an American aeronautical force, it is held, could exert a tremendous and perhaps decisive pressure on the actual fighting within a few months. As one leading American army au- thority phrased it, ‘“the effect of American aeronautical forces in BEu- rope would be felt acutely by Ger- many within a week after they reached French soil.” The first move which General Squier has completed after weeks of labor has been to remove in advance - all impediments to turning the nation's genius and resources to aviation. Every American manufacturer now éngaged in aeronauical work has:been sounded out. Every manufacturer of engines, automobiles, electrical ap- pliances or what not who could be of ce has been listed and 1in thoupdnds of cases communicated with. . General 8quier has concentrated his energies not on providing an Ameri- can aeromautical force which could hold its own with the British or French but in providing an over- whelming force completely eclipsing the efforts of the most progressive of the Europeans Powers. Tens of thousands of aviators arve part of this plan. The plans also call for dotting f - X lthe country with ' aviation schools, i be made against the chance that the the minimum, since provisions must 3 was not ocrowded to any oonsiderable extent, those who were there repre- sented a fair share'of the wealth of New Britain.
