U.S. Defense Lines Put
Across Seas for A-Bombs
By HARM AN W. NICHOLS
Washington, Oct. 4 (U.R) The way the general looks at It,
Napoleon was right and Douhet was wrong. Douhet was the
Italian general who a decade before World War II said air
forces alone could win wars.
All B-36 A-bombing supporters quote the Italian, the general
said.
"The 'little corporal' concen
trated on destroying the en
emy's armed forces, leaving ci
vilians and their industry
alone," he added. "That way Na
poleon was in a position to dic
tate to the enemy government
the political policies of the
peace."
"But more important, he was
able to put the civilians he had
spared to work for him in the
fields and factories. He did not
have to feed and care for the
conquered civilian population
for years after the fighting ceas
ed."
The general believes that if he
were alive today. Napoleon
would use the wonderful power
of aviation for the same purpose,
the destruction of the enemy's
armed forces on land, sea and
air "and not limit them to blow
ing up cities and factories."
The general is Brig. Gen. Har
ry J. Reilly of the army of the
United States, retired. His fath
er before him was a regular ar
my officer, a veteran of the civil
war and was killed in action at
Pekin in 1900.
In World war I, Gen. Reilly
served in the same division with
Douglas MacArthur. They fin
ished that war commanding the
two infantry brigades of the 42d
Rainbow division.
The general is a West Pointer.
Later he was ordered back as an
instructor. Gens. Dwight D. Eis
enhower and Omar N. Bradley
were among the cadets he in
structed. He backs his theories
with experience he gained fight
ing In Mexico, China, Russia,
twice in France, twice in Spain,
and Manchuria.
As a result, when Gen. Reilly
returned from Europe before
we entered the late war, Gen.
George C. Marshall had him lec
ture on blitzkreig at West Point,
at the infantry, cavalry and field
artillery schools.
Defense Secretary Louis
Johnson, then assistant secre
tary of war, invited Gen. Reilly
to lecture to his war depart
ment officers.

hope existed that this would
make the Germans on the home

work and it won't work If

'We must be prepared to
strike at Russia, not only from
the air, but on land as well, or
else rest strictly on the defensive.
'If we want to strike, we must
provide the armed forces neces

act decisively as it did in the
Pacific.
'Otherwise, we must resign
ourselves to sit at home with
committees, conferences and
other futile measures until the
Russian planes are over us

WHAT'S YOUR SOCIAL RATING?
Money Doesn't Count,
Knowing Right People Does
Chicago (UK) It's the people you know and who know you
that really determines your social rating, according to Lloyd
Warner, University of Chicago professor and author of "Social
Class In America."
He says that whom you know and who knows you which Is
your social rating is determined
by four things:
1. Your occupation or that of
the head of the family.
2. The source, but not the
amount of your income
S. The kind of house you live
in.
4, The neighborhood you live
in.
Warner gives each of these
factors a rating and says the sum
of the ratings shows how you
stand socially in your commu
nity.
At the same time, he says, the
rating will tell what chances you
have to climb the social ladder
For instance, a family with a
father who is a bank clerk gets
a rating of three for occupation
according to the book. Since the

If such a family chose wisely,
they might live in a good neigh

and in house which also might
rate three. When the score is
added, it tells you that the fam

to that of most people, but be

outranks all others. Such a fam

he adds.
What are more important are

does not belong to, which help
