increasing for ‘drastic reversal in British air policy which since ‘long before the war has been based on the use of heavy bombers behind enemy lines in an attempt to achieve strategically decisive - re- ||
| sults. |
Since that policy was : initiated, it .has been proved to the satisfaction of the entire world ‘that, even with, favorable - conditions, ‘heavy ‘bombers operating over enemy “ter-
‘| ritory: cannot either knock out pro-
duction or terrorize populations to the point of capitulation. This was proved in 1940 when the Germans failed, in the first instance, to break through in daylight when precision or pattern bombing might have been effective, and later failed, despite the heavy mass bombing of British cities a night, either to cripple production or to crack the nation’s morale,
Nazis Keep Producing
The argument has been clinched in recent months when the British, finally equipped with enough heavy bombers to tackle the job seriously, have tried and failed to upset German war production by night bombing. Now if is known that this bombing has been neither precise nor strategically effective. and with the perfection of German ‘defenses it has become dreadfully costly in both men and machines. The chances are that it will become increasingly so if continued. Several changes are being urged by expert critics. They feel that heavy-bombers production. should be maintained but believe thie use of heavy bombers should be altered and that emphasis in production should be concentrated, for the time being, on lighter types of aircraft which are urgently needed for direct military and naval operations,
Fewer Targets Suggested
Heavy bombers should be employed, they feel, either for backing up military operations as has been the case in Libya or, when strategic bombings are required, should be used more economically. Maj. ‘Oliver Stewart, air correspondent of the London Observer, suggests “drastic reduction in the number of targets, selection of large and vulnerable targets—or of military objectives surrounded by large vulnerable targets—and full concentration of effort for every "major operation.” Current production, these critics insist, should be concentrated on machines which can be used for reconnaissance, fighter supremacy, torpedoing of ships, and tank-bust-ing.
(SCHOOL BOARD SLATE
PLAN RAPPED AGAIN
Additional cism has been directed at the methods used in selecting candidates for the Indianapolis school board. Every four years a slate of candidates for the board is selected by the citizen’s school committee and the candidates are elected without opposition, The latest opposition to the committee’s selection of candidates came from the Indianapolis branch of the National Association, for the Advancement of Colored People. The association condemned the “methods used by the citizens committee” in selecting candidates” on the ground that the public schools should be administered by a “democratically elected board.” Other organizations have adopted similar resolutions recently.
‘Sunday Driver’. To Stay at Home
NEW YORK, Feb. 24 (U. P.).—The end of the “Sunday driver” for the duration of the war was foreshadowed today in a.statement by the Rubber Manufacturers association warning motorists that their present tires may have to last for
| the next five years,
The association advised motorists to assume that there will be no new civilian tires until the war is over| and urged complete elimination of non-essential driving and the use of substitute transportation whereever possible. “To be on the safe side,” the “it might be well to budget the life of your present tires over a five-year period. This means that if you estimate the remaining life of your present tires at 10,000 miles you must limit your yealy use to 2000 miles, This would mean only 166 miles a month or about 40 miles a week.”
