NO MORE WARS THINK EXPERTS Aircraft Fleets and Submarines Win keep Enemies From Coming to Grips. Washington.?"There will not be any more wars. L/.siu inaiiic-iu is coming. "Fighting has been made impossible." 'i he man who said it is a naval oflicer. He stood on the bridge deck of the Henderson and watched Cien. Bill Mitchell's bombers sink the German battleship Ostriesland. Alter that affair was over tie expended his thought. "A period has been put to battleshin building." said he. "You can not escape that conclusion. Glenn Martin, who built the Martin bombers which carried the ton bombs that smashed the Ostriesland, is building a larger 'plane thai will carr> a four ton bomb. Me says that the carrying of a ten-ton bomb is only a matter of building larger 'planes. His new four-ton bomber can go 500 miles at sea and return." Pacific Coast Tests Lesson. Such a bomber, the officer said, can sink any ship that floats today. Our Pennsylvania, our Tennessee, any of our magnificent, new dreadnaughts, would be as easy for it as a duckling is for a chicken hawk. The bombing experiments on the Pacific coast not long ago proved that. Cap- j tain Mostyn dropped a smokescreen dcjwn over the Pacific battleship fleet and then went in safely with his bombers. Theoretically he got the flagship. His attack was hidden 1 -L! 1 _ oenmu uiu fstiteii. "No battleship fleet," .-aid the speaker, "could approach within 500 miles of our coasts under such conditions, even if protected by a fleet of aircraft carried on ships. Such a fleet might?might?be able to keep the shore fleet of aircraft away from the invaders. Not likely, of course, for more aircraft can be stabled on a shore that can be carried on a fleet. But such a fleet might keep the air clear above its battleships during the day. It could not at night. The experience of the late war is conclusive there. Aircraft can find towns,or ships by night but can not find other aircraft. 'Planes can be heard at night but not seen. The 'planes could find and bomb the fleet while covered by darkness." Battleships Hampered. If it is impossible for an invading fleet to g *t within 500 miles of our coasts, reasoned the officer, it is equally impossilbe for our fleet to get within 500 miles of the enemy's coast. Battleships, then, must either stay at home to be bombed in their harbors or venture trembling out to sea to be exposed to submarines which will be lying in wait at the harbor gates. For submarines now have a cruising radius of four months. Battleship may still b'j built at a cost of fi ty to sixty million dollars each. "But they do not mean anything any more," said the officer. "When they have born protected by 'blisters' against underwater torpedoe . and m?nes and thr serial bombs that fal' alongside, and hojivv enough "it* >iiv to withstand the 20 inch shells th-ii will he hurled at them from the new runs, and ;i top.-id > protection against aircraft, thov wiM be ''"movable.
