What kind of thinking art our

llerea an Interesting dispatch
along that line from Washington:

retary Symington said today he was
thsnkful a congressional Investigat

air force a chance to tell the "truth"
of Its case to the country.
His prepared address at the Air
Force association's convention care
fully avoided any discussion of the
capabilities of the B-31 bomber.
Such references had appeared In ad
drexses by air force officials until
Ihe house armed service committee
decided recently to probe B-31 pro
curement and air power strategy.
The closest Symington came In hit

gument with the navy over carrier '

Indeed. Is there sny Informed per
son anywhere who does not sgree
with your conviction thst Uncle
Sam's capacity to deliver the atomic
bomb snywhere In the world Is a
great deterrent to war?"
The sir secretary did not procede
from there Into the contention of
air force advocates that the far
ranging B-31 ran strike virtually
any global target. The nsvy's friends
say planes launched from carriers
can do the same tiling.
