IDEAS HELD UNSOUND
Lesson Learned from World
War Is That Airplanes
Serve Best as Aid
to Infantrymen.
(JUorUttd ha Utuni Wll )
WASHINGTON, Oct 13. The
army general staff presented to
the president's air board today a
statement In rebuttal to witnesses
who have urged aweeplng changes
jln the national defense organita
jtlon. ! It denounced as unsound the pro
I posed department of national de
fense, asserted that "direct admin
istration and control" of the army
air service actually doea rest "In
the hands of the chief of the air
service," and presented a general
denial of chargea of mismanage
ment in the administration of the
air service Itself.
Presented by Brigadier-General
Hugh A. Brum, assistant chief of
staff, the ststement covering El
typewritten pages, was -prefaced
with the remark that "the war de
partment has considered with pain
staking thoroughness and .care he
various propositions and views pre
sented to the board."
"The main proposals," It added,
"have been studied In one form or
another before, during, and since
the World wsr. Consequently the
war department has crystallsed Its
views on air service organisation
Into sane, definite and well
thought-out policies. These views
were concurred in by the chfl-f of
air service, Major-General Maaon
M. Patrick."
The "were" In the last sentence
of the above quoted paragraph was
underscored In the official text of
the statement.
Saya Patrick's Ideaa Unsound.
"It Is believed," General Drum
testified, "that the Ideas expressed
by the chief of the air service are
fundamentally unsound in his
conception of a new national de
fense doctrine, whereby the thea
ter of operations along our fron
tier Is to So divided Into three
'theaters of action' sea, air and
land, each with a separate com
mander, re.pnn.ible for national
defense In his respective theater."
The general ataff also wss said
to view aa "unsound" the proposal
for a sepsrate air corps within the
army, urged by General Patrick aa
a step looking to creation of the
license department.
Asserting thst "air units are es
sential to an army and must be an
Integral part thereof,' General
Drum added that "we must not be
blinded to the sacrifices of the
American doughboy."
The "prance of horsea." he con
tinued, "the boom of cannon and
whirl of airplane propellers cannot
replace the dogged determination,
the 'will to win' of the American
Infantryman. The mechanical de
vice can never replace the mental
imorsi, ana pnysicai qualities or
man.
I ''The air service Is no worse
:off." he added, "than the Infantry,
Icavalry and other branches of the
army. In matters relating to pro-
1 motion, bousing, ratio allowances
and lack of funds with which to
