Perhap.s the hardest working
member of the cast was John
Carrdine. Simultaneously at work
on- “The Return of Frank James”
and “Brigham Young," the lanky
screen player had to “commute’’
between the two location sites,
several hundred miles apart. To
add to his difficult as-signment,
he is a villain in “The Return of
Frank James’’ and a hero in
"Brigham Young.”

OUR DEFENSE
(Continued from page two)
Shotgun
As an airplane doe.s not re
main stationary, it is necessary
to throw up quite a few shells to
make an impression. It is easier
to hit a flying duck with a, couple
of hundred slugs from a shotgun
than it is to hit it with a single
rifle bullet. Therefore, a battery
of four anti-aircraft guns can fire
100 aimed shots in one minute.
Klach anti-aircraft battery has a
director or “mechanical brain.’’
Tliis complicated instrument is
pointed continuously at any f.ir
target, and automatically com
putes the right direction for aim
ing the gun so that the shell and
the airplane will arrive at the
same point together. This point
ing information is transmitted
electrically to each gun, and the
guns do the rest.
Anti-aircraft guns are supple
mented by searchlights of over
800,000,000 candle-power to find
targets at night, to enable the
searchlight crew.-» to find the
planes quickly as they approach
high in the air. Sound locators
are used. These sound locators
)f twelve 3-lnch guns; three bat
teries of 3 7 mm. guns with a
total of twenty-four guns, and
one machine gun battery of 12
machine guns—that makes- forty-
eight guns and several thousand
shells a minute. However, the
coast artillery ha.s no monopoly
on taking pot shots at airplanes.
The troops of all other arms and
some of the services fire on iow
flying airplanes with anything
they have handy. The Coast Ar
tillery takes over the job where
protection is not furnished by
the other arms themselves.
Now we do not have a great
many anti-aircraft guns in the
country, but the National Defense
Advisor}' Commission has already
approved raillionsi o f dollars
worth of army contracts for pro
duction of these guns. Tooling up
of the factories is now under
way, and deliveries are being ex
pedited.
