Aviator Rodger Testifies
Navy Department Not
Guilty of Error.
GAVE ALL AID ASKED
Colonel Mitchell, Accuser
of Bureaus, Summoned
by Superiors For
- "Discipline."
(AaaorUtrd rm Uurd Wirt.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. Taking
direct Issue with Colonel William
Mitchell's charges. Commander
John Rodgers, a witness today be
fore the president's air board, is
sued a challenge to anyone to
make "a just criticism" of the ar
rangements for the Hawaiian flight
of the PN-. No. 1.
Colonel Mitchell previously bad
told the board the preparations
for the flight which waa command
ed by Commander Rodgers, looked
like the work of "bungling ama
teurs." Without mentioning Mitchell by
name, Rodgers declared the navy
adopted "the proper tactics" and
that he waa "tu'ly satisfied" with
the crew and personnel assigned
to the flight.
"I cannot see," Rodgers contin
ued, "bow the navy department
could be beld responsible (or the
failure of the flight.
' ''Everything waa done that could
be done.
"The secretary of the navy per
sonally visited San Diego and or
dered the bureau of aeronautics to
give as everything that we asked
for.
"This was done." :
Mitchell Contradicted. '
Rodgers said he was given au
thority to arrange the first plans,
which statement flatly contradict
ed Mitchell's charge that prepara
tions were bandied by "non-flying
officers."
"So far aa the navy department
waa concerned," Rodgers contin
ued, "It went the limit. In providing
an tnat was desired..
"The planes were tested.
tests showed them capable of the
flight
"We would have reached Hawaii
had- the wind not been against us,
of if the plane had given the same
mileage It did on the testa.
"Had we found a rescue ship on
the first day, we could have gone
on.
"I was fully satisfied with my
crew and personnel," be declared.
"Everything was In my hands. Re
gardless of whatever mistakes
were made before or after, I chal
lenge anyone to make a just criti
cism of the Hawaiian flight."
No Danger of Air Attack.
Redgera was asked If this nation
could be attacked by a foreign
power with airplanes capable of
crossing either ocean with 2,000
ponnd bombs. '
"No," be answered, "and nnless
some new engine Is developed, it
Is not probable that this will ever
be true." '
This also differed from the
Ideas of Colonel Mitchell.
Rodgers told the board that de
velopment of the airplane had
made necessary the establishment
of a department of national de
fense, which would Include both
the army and the navy.
The need for a proper scientific
organization of the national de
fense, be said was plainly appar
