© ATTORNEYS PREPARE KIDNAPING APPEAL

VALPARAISO, Ind. June 25 (U. P.) —The counsel of Richard Sweet, recently sentenced to death on a ‘ kidnaping charge, today prepared an appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court for a new trial. a Special Judge William J. MeMurray of the Porter- Superior Court yesterday denied Sweet a new trial and granted him 75 days to file the Supreme Court appeal. Sweet and two other convicts seized Mrs. Ruth Joiner, Crawfordsville welfare worker, as she was

By MAJOR AL WILLIAMS - Scripps-Howard Aviation Editor The outstanding ~ lesson of Europe’s war is that airpower dominates every phase and zone of conflict and is a nation’s first line of defense. - The United States is today a sec-ond-rate seapower, a fifh-rate airpower and a seventh-rate landpower. Delay and neglect, plus lack of vision, make necessary emergency methods of providing adequate airpower and competent land forces. That’s the hard and expensive way, but the only way now open to use. We haven't a ¢hance of getting the right kind of airpower under

the present set-up, with the Army

and Navy quibbling and squabbling with one another. For instance, the manufacturer building a 1000-horsepower “Cyclone” for the Army is required to build it under Army specifications. Building the same engine for the Navy, the manufacturer is com-=-pelled to follow Navy specifications. The Navy wants castellated nuts to hold the cyclinders qn the crank case. The Army insists upon Pau nuts. Each Service has its own unalterable, petty opinions about scores of gingerbread items which’ mean ouble storerooms,

double inspection systems and twice

the number of inspectors.

-

double supplies,

The Army demands one type of fuel sytem and the Navy insists upon another. And so on. This fooling around is a clear reflection oF what happens when there is no central and responsible group charged with complete ntrol. Standardization is the first order of mass production.

There's only one way to get a job done, whether under a democracy, a monarchy or a dictatorship. The form of government has nothing to do with selecting the right way or the right kind of equipment. That always depends upon assigning the proper men to the job and nailing the responsibility on those men. Responsibility must be localized,”

NAPOLIS T

IU. S. Will Laci in AIT Until Unified Control Ends Service OQuibbling, W Williams Says

or too many people are to blame and the job is mever finished. We have no centralized, consolidated group upon which can be placed the entire responsibility for the defense of America in the air. Naturally, there is no long-range policy or plan for American airpower. The naval gir ‘arm is essentially of the Navy, The Army Air Corps is essentially of the Army. Old-line Navy officers, who never dreamed that airpower could chase battleships into impotency and hiding (before the results cf the present war were pubiwshed), are holding part of America’s air destiny in their unskilled hands. Old-line infantry, artillery, and

cavalry officers are still trying to accommodate their minds to a radical weapon that skims™ cver “impregnable” land fortifications.

No matter how they spur their minds, they may at most catch up with current developments in the use «of airpower. ‘Theres not a chance that they will be able to visualize developments still to come and untried to date. In short, the airpower of America—existing and planned—is divided, and deep-seated antagonisms make the acquirement of real air strength impossible, We plunge on—thousands of aircraft engines and all thaj—without going to the heart of the problem

and providing the unified control that ‘is part and parcel of the separate air force system. That is the secret of Germany's airpower—a ‘secret now. known to the world. But service politics just won’t let us use that secret.
