BROWN COUNTY, Ind, Aug. 26.—John Horton came past my cabin at 4 o'clock in the morning and honked till I woke up. I could have killed him. But that was the agreement, so I somehow staggered out into the world and got myself dressed. It was Just getting daylight. § Every morning for a week I § had been awakening naturally Just, before dawn. But this momming, of course, knowing I was going on a trip, I was in agony for sleep. I don't know what ever made me agree to it. But the boys had said something about taking a dawn hike through the State Park and I, thinking at the time about the state of my soul or something equally vague, had said, “Oh, : sure.” And now here I was. Five of us gathered at the big Abe Martin Lodge up in the middle of the State Park—John Horton, Johnny Wallace, the park naturalist, a couple from Louisville who come up here every summer for a vacation, and myself.

A Bird Hunt

And do you know what this thing turned out to be? A bird hunt! No, I don't mean we were hunting with guns. These people were all bird fanatics, and they just go out hiking at dawn to listen to birds sing, and try to see how many kinds of birds they can identify, I could have killed the whole bunch—people, birds and all. Johnny Horton wrote down in a notebook every kind of bird they saw, and when we returned two howrs later he had 32 different kinds on his list. As for me, I saw only two. In the first place, I was so sleepy I couldn't have seen a bird if one had lit on my nose. And in the second place, I've already seen a lot of birds in my lifetime, The only thing that kept me awake at all was marveling at the strange talk of these bird fanciers. Once we were all standing in a little group,

War and Weather By Maj. Al Williams

VICTORY OR DEFEAT in the war between England and Germany depends upon time—time interpreted in point of weather. In the first place, this is the air war that has been forecast. And “time must be interpreted in point of seasonal weather, and not in the usual factors of economics or material resources.” This development will alse be passed over by reactionaries who do not believe such things could happen. The Germans claim sufficient resources to carry on the air war and air blockade for months, But Old Man Weather will step in soon and hold up major air attacks until the Spring. When, therefore, can he be expected to ring down his curtains of dense fogs and cloud blankets on this air war and the invasion of England? No invasion with land forces, supported by power, could even be contemplated by General Staff. Hundreds of years of military naval history back that claim, with only army navy experts holding out against historical ”n n

seathe German and and record. on Defense Also Handicapped But airpower is largely hamstrung by weather, just as land forces are stymied by mud. By Sept. 27 the equinoctial storms begin. Heavy, dense fogs and low-lying cloud formations must be anticipated from that point through the winter. It looks like between now and Sept. 27 for the answer. What do fog and cloud blankets mean to offensive and defensive air warfare? In the first place, poor visibility or blanket-out visibility means muffling of anti-aircraft batteries, except at short ranges and after the air raiders are over their targets and engaged in ground strafing That is generally too late The next question for the defense is whether the

That is because we are unable to picture to ourselves what we shall be facing if Britain goes down, for it is not the American habit to fail mm any task it sets for itself. The reason we are haggling and holding back and losing so much time is not through any lack of belief in America or through any lack of patriotism r willingness to do the job. It is because sO many people agree with Lindbergh and with what some Senators are saving in current debate, namely that we won't get into any trouble if we don’t go looking for it in Europe. The Administration, in spite of all of its efforts, in spite of such convincing addresses as that recently made by Ambassador Bullitt, still has failed to drive it thoroughly into the mind of the American people that we are faced with a menace. It is a slow-motion menace and the British Empire still screens it from clear view. But it is there. Wendell Willkie sees it and is defying most of his own party leadership to give warning of it.

The German War Effort

While testifving before the Senate Appropriations Committee recently, Gen. George C. Marshall, Chief of Staff, was asked to give some idea of what Germany had spent on war preparations before the fighting began a Year ago. Gen. Marshall replied that the War Department naturally had only very rough estimates. These rough estimates indicated, he said, that to reproduce the material accomplishments of the German war machine under our laws and procedure would probably require an . expenditure of about $£100,000,000,000.

quiet as mice, waiting for a bird to come along, when Naturalist Johnny Wallace said, not to any of us, but just unconsciously and out in space: “Tufted Titmouse—tapwee, tapwee, tapwee!” Now and then the group would suddenly stop and somebody would question: “Hear it? Seeee--Toe--heee. Seee--Tee--heee!” And Johnny heard a black-throated warbler, that sings: “Trees, trees murmuring trees.” Except he told about having a fellow along one morning who couldn't make anything out of the warbler's song except: “Cheese, cheese, limburger cheese.” man I know I could love. » ”

Home and to Bed

Those people saw birds in trees where I couldn't even see a tree. And they constantly heard birds where I heard nothing but a ringing in my ears. The only two birds I ever saw were a Kingfisher and a scarlet tanager. The kingfisher was sitting on a fence along a lake watching the fish in the water. And since he didn’t move for five minutes, I finally did get a focus on him. The scarlet tanager flew past and was such a streak of violent red that even a man in a stupor couldn't help seeing it.

Fortunately, we found a few other things besides birds. We found a tree-toad and a frog, and Johnny Horton caught them in his hands and showed the feminine section of our caravan something about their eyes. And Johnny Wallace found a locust, about the size of your little finger, whose body had been half eaten away by some insect, yet the locust was still alive, ana his wings were going a mile a minute, And we heard the bell that gets the CCC boys up at 6 (the lucky loafers) in their camp somewhere off through the brush, And we saw poison ivy, and walked around it. somehow, around 7 o'clock, we got home, and I went to bed. It would be nice if there weren't any such things as birds; but then I suppose people would want to go looking for tree-leaves or drops of glistening dew at 4 o'clock in the morning.

balloon curtains should be left around such strategic points as London or moved to the coastline, I would select the latter. The British balloon curtain plan seems to be one balloon per square mile of territory to be defended. London occupies about 860 square miles and there are about that many balloons in the London curtain,

To cover adequately the extended coastlines of England many thousand more balloons would be needed. Balloons in fog and cloud banks are horrible hazards. Sound detectors hooked up to anti-aircraft batteries have demonstrated a time lag that halts effective shooting through cloud levels. ” " ”

Where Offense Has Advantage

The only thing left for the defense is the interceptor fighting plane, and small patrols kept aloft as scouts. Discovery of an air raid formation means the closest Kind of contact with reserve fighting squadrons below, Just how many single-seaters of either side have been equipped with blind flight instruments is questionable. For and cloud banks may indeed be of great value to experienced and determined airmen. But the pilots experienced enough for such work are comparatively nil, since many are trained in war time with limited flight experience. Once on top of a cloud level the offense has a great advantage. Usually the top of a cloud level is glaringly white, Soiled spots are evidence of factories and cities below. As soon as an airman sees a soiled spot in the white carpet below him, he can assume that the dirty cloud area has been tinted by the smoke from a worthwhile target.

It is impossible to believe that the Germans will fail to use this method of identifying major city po-

sitions. Fog and low-lying clouds can be a blessing! or a curse in aerial warfare. A clever and determined airman can usually turn this hazard to his own advantage, But war-trained | pilots with limited air experience will be greatly handicapped, and this is the type of airmen who do most ot the fighting.

There has been no change in this respect since the Aug. 4 survey.
