Aerial Attack on Crete
Demonstration of New
And Practical Technique
By D.Witt MecKensle
Associated P ress Analyst '
The battle of Crete, which presents a new phase of war so
fantastic that it has existed here tofore only in the imaginations
of romancers, is giving us an un forgettable picture of the armed
conflict of the future the imm ediate future for the air will
play an Increasingly vital part i n the European conflict until the
end.
for, as this column has pointed
out before, I believe the decis
ion in the great engagement of
the Near East which is now op
ening up will depend in no
small degree on tne air. Indeed,
aerial operations may prove to
be the decisive factor.
Practicability Shown
Whatever may be the outcome
of this daring nazi descent from
the clouds into the enemy camp
on the mountainous isle of
Crete, Hitler has demonstrated
that this form of attack is prac
ticable. Thus it is bound to form
a powerful weapon of offense
from now on, and it is notable
that Germany is the only na
tion thus far fully equipped to
wage this new type of war.
The heavy British Royal air
force attack on the German ex
peditionary force in African Li
bya is a natural answer to the
nazi assault on Crew. The im
mediate purpose of the British
command is to compel the nazis
to divert to Libya a part of the
airfleet they are using against
the Greek island. This in itself
is an indication of the gravity
of the threat in the German attack.
There also may be a double
purpose In the British bombard
ment of the nazi column in Afri
ca. Allied Commander in Chief
Wavell may be ready to inaugur
ate a land offensive against the
axis forces which are standing
close to the Egyptian border,
ready for a thrust towards the
great naval base of Alexandria
and the Suez canal. As the chess
men sit on the board now, that
would seem to be General Wav
ell's next move.
Syria Important
With the swelling of the con
flict- in the Near East, French
will be given Sunday at 8 p.m.
in the Highway tabernacle here.
There will be songs and specials
by the orchestra. The Sunday
school children will take part in
an exercise entitled: "Beam!
from the Lighthouse". At 11
a.m. Rev. M. R. Brunswick, pas
tor of the tabernacle will speat?
on "The Life of Moses." Th.
public is cordially invited.
c
belligerent to occupy Syria with
military forces will have secured
a key position.
Recognition of this is seen In
the reported advance of Free
French forces into Syria from
Palestine. It is seen, too. in Bri
tain's warning to Vichy that
French collaboration with Ger
many will force the allies to
strike back a warning which
is directed at least in part to the
fact that nazi war'anes are us
ing Syrian airdromes in transit ,
to Iraq to support the revolt
there against the British.
It wouldn t be surprising to
see Syria become one of the big
battle grounds of the Near East
ern battle because of its stra
tegic position. For the Germans
its possession would be inval
uable not only for operations
against Egypt and the Suez can
al, but as a weapon with which
to force Turkey to grant passage
of German troops through her
territory.
Barrier to Advance
For the British, Syria would I
form a barrier against advance
to the canal through Palestine,
which is in many respects the
most logical route. British con
trol there also would relieve the
German pressure against Turk
ey a matter of the utmost con
cern to the allies at this mo
ment. Should the Germans gain pos
session of Crete they presum
ably would make an early as
sault on Britain's great naval
base of Cyprus off the Syrian
coast. However, it would be log
ical for them first to try to estab
lish themselves in Syria.
