Beatty (AP Feature Writer) Washtngto n The nation with planes to burn wins the battle perhaps the war! That's air power. Until May 10, when the Ger mans started their blitzkrieg through western Europe, air power was largely an academic argument between airmen and generals the kind of word tempest that disgraced such great prophets as Gen. Billy Mitchell of the U. S. air serv ice. More than a decade ago, Billy Mitchell told the generals what was coming. But h couldn't prove it. Now it has happened. Go behind the scenes with the military men. Let them point out on maps the German drive through the low countries and France. ' "Blitzkrieg?" you ask. "No," they answer; "AIR POWER!" German air power blasted CTery step of the way, told the moiorised corps where the enemy waited In force, and protected It from dares fating assaults from French and British bombers. The German planes zoomed out in full daylight, exposed to the aim of enemy pursuit ships and anti-aircraft fire. Hundreds ot pilots paid the penalty of daylight air war; but many completed their missions of spying, bombing, spotting artil lery. And the Germans still have planes to spare! The allies have no planes to spare, so they roar out in force mainly at night. Their aim Is poor then, but they aTOld widespread destruction. All of this adds up to Ger man air supremacy temporar ily, at least. Saw It Coming Strange this should have hap pened when there were so many ominous warnings in the sky. The first of these was the ghost of Baron von Richthofen. Germany's World war ace of aces, who discovered the germ of air power when he invented his flying circus. Those roving German airmen proved that superior air force at a critical point could prove a decisive factor in warfare. Then Billy Mitchell told any-' body who would listen that armies were no longer front line forces, but holding forces. A few years later, Charles A. Lindbergh unwittingly gave air power its greatest shove for ward when he flew to Paris, fired the world's imagination, started commercial aviation to ward greater heights. Each new advance was ab sorbed into military aviation, especially by the Germans. Other nations were not so fast to recognize that command ot ALWAYS TWO FEATURES IIILV CNU TOMTE!

El Brendel, Claire Dodd, Nana Bryant and Donald Woods are also in the cast that Includes five of the most fam ous stars of yesterday: Blanche the land and the sea was insuf ficient. In 1938 came the Spanish civil war, and Munich, when Hitler's threat of air power brought a humiliating peace to most of Europe.' Let Spanish Loyalist Pilot Eugene Finick tell the story of a wrecked Italian blitzkrieg at Guadalajara: "Here were nearly 40.000 Italians who had broken through our lines. . . . Tanks and great motor lorries filled with troops. . . . They came roaring along the macadamized road . . , a whole army on wheels. . . We came over, squad rons of 15 in close formation. . . . We dumped every bomb we had on the tanks in front and the road tons of high ex plosives. . . In two minutes' time the tanks and road were a shambles. ..." Two minutes! Maybe Pilot Finick exaggerated. But what would not France and Belgium have given for superior air force to blast Germany's blitz krieg on May 10, before It got rolling? If Gen. Nathan Bedford For rest were alive today, doubt less he would amend his fam ous remark. It's not the "most est men," any more. Victory favors the side with the mostest, the fastest, and the bestest air power! Forest Fire Controlled Dallas, Ore., June 11.
