By British Attache in Washington. ~
By CHARLES T. LUCEY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.— Two years of actual war experience have strengthened England’s belief in the Royal Air Force as an independent fighting. arm Separate ‘from. the Army and. Navy, Air .Commodore
air attache, said here today.”
Only recently arrived ‘from’ England, he commented: that “the average Englishman would be horrified” at any suggestion that the R. A. F. be abolished as an independent department of military aviation. =~ “When the Londoner who has been bombed thinks of the Battle of Britain he thinks of the R. A. F..” the air official said. “The import-
brought home to him because this has been happening right on his doorstep.”
Navy Has Own Planes
The main air striking power of Britain is in the R. A. F, but all ship based planes of the Navy are under control of the Admiralty, which also has operational control of the coastal command. Most advocates of an independent, unified air force for the United States have agreed that control of ship-based aircraft should remain with the Navy. Air Commodore Thornton emphasized the complete flexibility of the R, A. F.,, and its ability to execute a land Wombing mission one night and one that might be considered a naval ‘mission - the next night. “When you get a target like a battleship you might say it is a naval target. Yet the R. A. F. would go out and bomb the Scharnhorst and Gneisnau, German warships at Brest, and the next night would be out bombing Berlin or over - the Ruhr—same airplanes, same men.
Cites Matapan Action
“Our very first targets of the war, I believe, were ships at Wilhelmshaven. The same squadrons the next day were dropping pamphlets over Germany.” In the naval action at Cape Matapan in the Mediterranean, the air official recalled, R. A. F. planes were about to go on a bombing mission in Greece when they suddenly received information that the Italian fleet was out. They turned about at once and bombed .the Italian warships, thus contributing to the success of the Navy and its fleet air arm in destroying the Italian ships. What the British representative termed the “terrific” empire training program for airmen is only possible, he believes, because the R. A F. is a unified command.
Duplication Avoided
“We certainly are more effective training for one service rather than “There are no duplications of schools in our training of men, and we believe we are saving money, men-and machines.”
the air, as in Crete, the difficulty has not been organizationsl, he said, but simply that there have not been. enough airplanes to go around—to protect England itself and all the outposts. There is no lack of co-ordination ‘between: air, land and sea forces, the attache says. Every. morning, he points out, Admiral Dudley Pound for the Navy, Gen. Sir John Dill for the Army and Air Chief Marshal Sir Charles Portal for the
‘R. A. P.—all chiefs of staff—sit down together to plan the overall
campaign.

This quaint, colonial chapel in . Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Mich., was the birthplace of the new book, “You and the Ten Commandments,” released by BobbsMerrill, :
DEARBORN, Mich. Sept. 12—Indianapolis ® visitors ‘to ' Greenfield Village are seeing the: “birthplace”
of a new book published, in their
‘Tome city. - ‘The book, “You and the Ten Com-
: mandments, ” recently released by
talks delivered here.
given in the Martha-Mary - of. Greenfield Village by William J. Cameron speaking to school
-children.
‘Mr. Cameron is well known for his radio addresses over the Ford Sunday Evening Hour. The Bobbs-
t Merrill Co. heard of his chapel talks . 10 -the Greenfield Village children and asked to publish the series on| the Ten Commandments in the - form. of -a book for distribution to
children and adults everywhere. : To fully savor the book, the Mar-tha-Mary Chapel and the school children ought to be visualized. To the visitors, Greenfield Village almost seems to belong to the youngStork. They Hterally greese ; ‘all over
it, riding their: bicycles and in their pony carriages and wear a very contented air of being free and very much at home among the restored surroundings of their forefathers. The quaint colonial chapel with its tall spire quietly dominates historic Greenfield Village. The chapel faces the village green, which was the center of colonial communities, while ranged about it are the inn, the courthouse, the town hall, the general store and immediately opposite it, the school. During the school year, children of the village and Ford plant em-
ployees are daily instructad in vari-|
ous buildings closed to ‘the public. Each morning they assernble in the Martha-Mary Chapel for an inspirational service. It was during such services that Mr. Cameron talked over the Ten Commandments with them, asking questions and encouraging the children to answer. For example, he asked in the beginning of the book: “Who wrote the Commandments?” A girl answered promptly, “Moses. But Our Lord dictated them.” Both question
and answer along with many similar
ones are talthtully Fosorded as part of the new book. “The Ten Commandments and You” deals very thoroughly with the great law-giver, Moses, and why it fell to his lot to present to mankind with 10 rules which form the basis of all law today. Black and white illustrations are scattered thickly throughout the pages. And intp the talks, the author has woven much of his: experience of great people, past and present.
