AN R. A. F. BOMBER STATION, SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND (By Wireless)—An all-night flight to ‘Germany or Italy in a bombing plane is a long and grueling task. And it’s the sort of job you can’t keep ‘on doing night after night, as though you were going to work in a mill} In the heavy days of last spring bomber pilots were making as many as five trips a week, but now the average is less. And when they have made a certain number of trips they are “posted” for other duties—which means a rest. . It usually involves transfer .to a, training station as an in- . structor. Although the boys are.all disappointed when bad weather . washes out any. one night’s operations, still I believe they are a little glad to have the rest when it comes It takes some months to work up the number of trips necessary before a man is given a rest. This station has only one man so far who is on - night bombing duty after having been posted. He came .back in less than the scheduled time—because at the training station he talked so much gbout his experiences drove his fellow pilots crazy! The funniest incident I have heard about at this station involves one of their bombers that got lost and ‘landed in Germany, just after daylight. The fliers asked a bunch of farmers where they were, and ‘the farmers told them. They got back in the plane and flew safely home. But pilots rarely get lost, for they are thoroughly

skilled at instrument flying befdre they arrive for

duty.

“Shooting a Line”

I have a friend—the best one I've made, and whom I'm going to see again in another part of the world —who was telling me about a crash he'd been in. We were riding in a car as he talked about it—he and I in the front seat. I asked him if this was his only accident. He said “Yes,” and then reached around land said, “Where's some wood to knock on?”

Three other pilots were riding in the back seat, and ‘they yelled as if they had caught somebody stealing jam: “Jimmy's shooting a line! Jimmy's shooting a line! He must be, if he’s’ lonking for wood to knock on.” ‘4

You hear that term “shooting a line” more than |

any other expression around an R. A. F. field, The boys razz each other with it. They don’t spare any-| body, no matter what® he’s been through. - Anybody who taiks about anvthing he has done is accused of | shooting a line. body is eventually accused. It’s all good-natured. They had one pilot, now transferred, who was al colos#al line-shooter. He would come back from every trip with the most fantastic tales of his adventures. He never repeated himself, and he never had a dull story. The boys fell lonesome for weeks after he left. |

Suffer From Cold

At home’ we have only a few sergeant pilots in the Air Corps, but Britain has lots of them. It is not! unusual, for a great British bomber to be captained | by a sergeant, who all during the trip is in supreme command over the commissioned officers who make up his crew. The greatest discomfort the bomber crews have is the cold. They almost freeze to death. The planes are heated by hot air from the engines, yet so much cold wind gets in that they really suffer. They're now geiting electrically heated boots and gloves, which solve the problem. Unlike our air-fine transports, a bomber has ‘only one set of controls. The captain and the second pilot have te trade seats when they relieve each other. One of the boys told me how one night over northern Italy, when he was second pilot but flying the plane "at the time, the motors suddenly went dead. So he nosed the plane over into a dive, and while they were diving §fraight downward he and the captain changed seats. The motors caught again at 3000 feet and they came home safely. And incidentally, - you know how worried we get on the air lines when one motor goes out. Well, it is not unusual at all for these bombers to come all the way from Berlin on one engine.

Inside Indianapolis (4nd “Our Town’)

DID YOU know: | Anyone over 14 years of age who is found HUNTING, RIOTING, QUARRELING, DOING COMMON LABOR, OR ENGAGED IN HIS | USUAL VOCATION on Sunday is liable to be fined not less than $1 nor more than $10 Don’t worry about it, however, for several of the best lawyers in the State Senate didn’t know about that being the law in Indiana, either.

It was discovered for the first time by the /law-makers when a

bill was introduced to amend the law, passed in 1905, to permit the playing of Sunday night baseball, —another of the activities banned on Sunday. The bill, now ready for final passage in the Senate, was amended on the Upper House’ | floor yesterday specifically to include ice hockey as | one of the sports that may be played. after 1 p. m. on | Sunday. And ag for being fined for mowing your. lawn or hoeing your garden on Sunday, you're pretty safe. That law has been on the statute books for 35 years now and as far as known, no one has been taken to task yet for violating one.of its provisions.

‘Bad News for the Ladies

WHEN IT WAS first announced that CurtissWright was going to set up: a. factory: here, it was reported ‘that of 4000 ‘employees, “most would be women. That, we're sorry to intdrm the ‘ladies, is wrong. What Curtiss-Wright wants are skilled male ‘mechanics. There’ll be a few women stenographers, that’s all. . Those beautiful copper beech trees in the old Hibben, yard in South:Irvingion are being cut down by some unknown person at nights, we hear. + « « The Indiana University Club is being accused by pne gentleman of proselyting. He keeps getting mail to come “meet with the boys” and the only reason he resists is that he’s a Penn State man.

Washington

i WASHINGTON, Feb. ‘America is likely to be strengthened by Winston «Churchill’s Sunday broadcast in which he emphasized that American men are not needed ‘and will not be

11—The British case in

‘needed this year or any other year, tools, not men. This statement will clear the air over here of growing suspicion that a call for another A. BE. F. "was on the way. Recently Prime Minister Churchill said that no manpower would be needed from abroad in the year 1941. Some in this country drew the: inference that he was definitely keeping the ' door open for a call next year. That impression seemed to receive some support in London news dispatches. A few days ago, Robert P. Post of the London Bureau of the New York Times put into one of his dispatches this sentence: “The British are not saying so, but the United States policy of doing everything except fight is causing some resentment here.” About the same time the London correspondent of the New York newspaper “PM” dropped a similar hint. He said Britain was not ungrateful for American aid given thus far. At first, he said, they wanted moral support, then planes, then ships and other instruments of war, and he continued: “Eventually it will be manpower. Let the Americans make no mistake about that.” ;

Churchill Reassuring

The plain statement of Prime Minister, Churchill now appears to cut the ground from under such hints. Perhaps the Prime Minister has been receiving good advice from this side, because his statement sends a reassuring note into the heart of American doubts about the trend of this country’s relation to the war.

Public sentiment here is almost solid for sending the tools of war, but opposition. to sending men seems practically as strong as ever. The Gallup Poll reports that among American voters of ages from 21 to 29, which is the main military group, only. 10 per cent want war. Among voters of ages from 30 to 49, only 15 per cen favor going: in. Among voters over 50

My Day

‘WASHINGTON, Monday.—I am distil bevoud words for one quotation from Mr. Willkie oh his return from Europe: “If we give aid to Britain we are likely to stay out of war.” I am glad that this is his conviction after his trip. On leaving Montgomery, W. Va., yesterday, we motored directly to Charleston, and I was impressed, as I always am, by the beauty of this state. The streams at»this season are partly frozen - and the hills powdered with: snow. Yet; all through this section, on the hillsides and. along the road, the usual sad, grimy looking little houses make one’s™ heart heavy.

A Thorny Problem

THERE IS SOME speculation as to what Horst Smolenski is going to do when spring comes. Mr. Smolenski, you see, has ‘been the Jack Goodmans’ gardener for many years. When the nylon yarn came out, Mr. Goodmsn (who makes stockings, you know) was puzzled by processing.

That’s where Horst Smolenski came in. An inventor of sorts for years, he concoated an ideal solution for the dipping. Now Mr. Smolenski has a little laboratory of his own and the problem is that when spring cones, wii} he go back to the garden or stick to the lab?

Here and There

TWO BIC bombing planes, headed for Britain, swooped low over the monument yesterday on their way East. ‘You ¢ould see the big British circle painted on the sides, but most Indianapolis folk thought it was just another, set of transports and didn’t even bother to look up. . . . Lieut. Col. H. Weir Cook, transferred from: Shelby to Wright Field, came through town reporting that the first three days in Shelby were all confusion but that things down there are moving like clockwork now, Meridian St.’s newest claim as a showplace soon “will be the new, rotary traffic lights to be installed all the way from Ohio to 16th Sts. The new light has a circle of green

: bulbs surrounding a cluster of red. At the last 12

seconds, the green begins to flicker out. The light is the invention of a local dentist and the installation here will be the first large-scale test in the country.

Double Play, Unassisted

THE BOYS are telling this. belatedly, on Homer E. Capehart, the Indiana business dynamo. They say that at one time when he was working early and late with plans for the Willkie homecoming he called his secretary to his desk and started rapid-fire dictafon “Take [a note to so-and-so! . . .

surest way of keeping this country out of war. Some critics of the Roosevelt Administration say that if England is fighting our war we ought to be in there lighting, too. They, of, course, don’t concede that this is|our war. ‘

The Landon Testimony \

Former Governor Landon draws a distinction which makes a little more clear the confusion ine volved in that argument. He distinguishes between national security and national advantage. He says that it is to our advantage for England to win. He does not grant that our security is at stake. If it were, he would fayor our going fully into the war as a matter of self-preservation. Defeat of England would be to our disadvantage but we could still defend ourselves, in Governor Landon’s judgment. That is the basis upon which he is willing to give material aid, but stopping short of war. » By every index such as congressional reaction, polls and the cautious course of the Administration itself, the prevailing public attitude seems to be about that of Governor Landon. Except that it appears more ready lo trust President Roosevelt with additional power. American opinion seems to be marking time now until the outcome of the expected spring crisis is clear. Military planes and army equipmerit are being sent to England in undisclosed quantities but the Navy is being held intact and we are taking no action toward convoying or sending our own merchant ships f into the combat zones. We are compelled, in this situation, to keep ome eye cocked at the Far Pacific. Tle United States is not likely to undergo any change in opinion of policy with regard to the European end:

HOUSE TO PASS ATTY, GEN. BILLS

Then Governor Is Expected To Veto "Them With Other GOP Measures.

The House is scheduled to pass the Senate-approved Attorney Gen-

eral bills. One bill would abolish the present office of Attorney General while the other would make the office elective in 1942 and provide for the “hiring” of an interim attorney by a Repub-lican-dominated committee of elected officials. The highly-controversial measures are expected. to reach Governor Schricker’s desk at about the same time as the House-passed key G. O. P. decentralization bill and the Highway Commission and financial institutions bills passed yesterday by the Senate. These measures must be considered: by joint HouseSenate conference committees since they were amended in the upper house. Veto Is Expected

Governor Schricker is expected to veto all these measures since they take away powers which he contends rightfully belong to the chief executive. [Another highlight of the day was to be a meeting this afternoon of the Legislative Recount Committee to hear Virgil E. Whitaker, Hammond attorney, on alleged fraudulent voting in Lake County. Mr, Whitaker has filed a petition in the House asking that Glen R. Hillis, the defeated Republican candidaté be declared Governor on the grounds that more than 2000 aliens voted in Lake County—a county that went heavily Democratic in the last election.

Liquor Bill Awaited

The G. O. P, liquor bill and the bill to amend the Unemployment Compensation Law were to be introduced in the House today. The Republican Steering Committee has given the “go sign” to the measure creating a State Defense Council, pending in the Senate Military Affairs Committee for two weeks. However, G. O. P. majority leaders recommenged that the $400,000 appropriation provided in the bill be reduced to $200,000. At the same time, the Steering Committee withheld its approval of the bill to create a State Guard unit pend receipt of more information from the Federal Government on the necessity of guard troops and also how much help the Federal Government would give the state for guard troops.

* Some in G. O. P. Balk Several Republican senators have balked on the Home Guard proposal. - They contend that an increase in State Police officers would preclude the necessity of guards

ps. SLi Both bills were recommended by Governor Henry Schricker. Up for final action in the Senate is the G. O. P. bill to add 200 men to the State Police Force during the next two years. Senate leaders contend that this increase will eliminate the necessity for a State Guard. The Senate yesterday passed, by a vote of 29 to 12, the G. O. P. Merit System bill which would plage employees of all state institutions, the Public Welfare Depariment and the Unemployment Compensation Department under a state personnel board. This board would consist of four members, two. appointed by the Governor and two by the Lieutenant Governor. Other Bills Passed

Other bills passed to the House yesterday by the Senate would: Provide for a bi-partisan Board of Registration in all counties over 80,000. This board, which would take all registration duties away from the county clerk, would be composed of one Democrat and one Republican, each named by the Circuit Court judge upon the recommendation of the respective county party chairman.

ALLISON GETS ‘CHINESE ORDER

Number Involved Is Not Revealed.

Times Special WASHINGTON, Feb. 11. — The Chinese Government has placed an Army-approved contract with the Allison Division of General. Motors for delivery of an unrevealed number of the powerful liquid-cooled warplane engines, it is reported here, The Indianapolis-made power plant is now fitted as standard equipment in three fast Army pursuit and interceptor planes, a large portion of which are going to the British. These planes include the P-40, Curtiss pursuit, known as “Tomahawk” to the British; P-39, Bell Airacobra and the twin Allisonpowered P-36, Lockheed interceptor. Because of the large unfilled orders by both the U. S. Army and British, it is believed the Chinese Government will get only a few Al-lison-powered craft in the near future. The Allison Division is producing about 350 of its 1150-horsepower in-line ‘engines per month, but is scheduled to be turning out the engines at the rate of 1000 per month by September. So far the Curtiss Wright Aeronautical Corp. has been producing about seven or eight “Tomahawks” per day for the Allison engine and the British have been taking the entire product,

JAPAN'S NEW ENVOY

ARRIVES IN CAPITAL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11 (U. P). —Admiral Kichisaburo Nomura, Japan’s new Ambassador, arrived today to begin the difficult task of trying to patch up AmericanJapanese relations. ’ He was met at the station by about 100 members of the Japanese communities of New York and Washington; by representatives of the Japanese, German and Italian embassies here, and by officials of the U. 8S. Department of State. His. reception was strikingly different from that of Great Britain's new Ambassador, who arrived late last month aboard the new battleing George V. Viscount Halifax was met by President Roosevelt | in ‘Chesapeake Bay: The two receptions reflected the divergence in attitude of the United States toward Japan and Great Britain rather than toward the men themselves. For Nomura himself is friendly to the United States.

One representative said he favored it. He said he thought it might prevent “monéy on the side” if that practice is going on. Someone else pointed that Indiana’s legislators are not paid as highly as most other states. Another said he thought the: bill was “only fair.” Rep. Denton said it probably. was unconstitutional. Rep. Creighton said it probably was constitutional, but not a very good idea, Rep. Thaddeus Baker (R. Indianapolis) said he thought it was ‘“ridiculous.” He would sign a minority report against it—if anyone else would go with him. Rep. Creighton and Rep. Denton said they wouldn't sign either.

The Indianapolis Indians today won the first. half of their fight for the right to play baseball at Perry Stadium on Sunday nights. The Senate passed, by a vote of 36 to 6, a bill removing the present 6 p. m. limit on Sunday baseball.

The bill also provided specifically that ice hockey may be played on Sunday night. The present 1 p. m. Sunday afternoon starting time for baseball games is left unchanged. Senator Howard Johnson (R. Mooresville) and Senator Clyde R. Black (R. Logansport) protested passage of the bill, declaring that it. permitted further desecration of the Sabbath Day. “I just wonder where we are going to stop and how far we are going to go,” Senator Johnson remarked. Senator Harry o. Chamberlin (R. Indianapclis), speaking for the measure, declared that under the present law, baseball was unfairly discriminated against. He said that it was unjust for the. theaters to stay open and ice hockey to be played while commercial baseball had to stop at 6 p. m.
