HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON, June 6 W) Enthusiastic American airmen, hailing Britain'! massive bomb ing attack! on Germany aa a demonttratlon of tho true mean lnf of aerial warfare, predicted today that the growing might of British-American air forcea could reduce the narls to virtu al military Impotence without the opening of a aecond front on the continent. The flaming devastation dropped on Cologne and Essen, theae exports aald, were only the preliminary to a campaign of strategical bombing which could cripple th German war machine without the aid of land assaults, Military men holding more traditional concepts of warfnre did not go nearly ao far In their , appraisal of rosulta, although . they agreed that attainment of nmt Immediate objectives by the use of air power alone was entirely feasible.

Germans only approached In their assault on England in the fall and winter of 1940-41. As authoritatively described, the method works like this: Suppose It is decided to in terrupt enemy production of heavy bombers. Plants In which bomber parts are made and as sembled are plotted and the most vulnerable point in the construction process Is deter mined. Perhaps It Is found that only four plants mako under carriages. These are selected for attack, and either damaged or destroyed. Since bombers cannot fly without landing gear the enemy must either repair or rebuild the plants before his production lines can roll again.
