and Mrs. A. P. Lewis, entertained a
Looking at Washington
(Continued from page one)
' i
muse the British Government was to
secure some of the motors has caused I
William S. Knudsen, of the National |
Defense Advisory Commission, to re-J
quest the Packard Motor Company to
undertake the mass production of the
famous Rolls-Royce airplane motors.
Under the pressure of war needs
and defense necessities, the airplane
industry in this.country will probably
attain the mass-production stage.
Before the World War, the United
States built about 2,000 planes and
during the war period, something like
18,000 additional planes and 40,000
engines. In the years which have
elapsed since ehe war, it is estimated
that only 26,000 planes have been
built in this country. Due to the
orders from Great Britain and
France, leading to expanded produc
tion facilities, the airplane industry
is said to be producing about 12,000
complete planes a year.
It is believed that the production
cf airplanes is limited only by the
production of high horsepower en
gines which are produced by only
three companies in the United States.
The Wright Aeronautical Corpora
tion and Pratt and Whitney make
radical, air-cooled engines at the rate
of about 18,000 a year and the Alli
son division of General Motors Cor
poration, produces a liquid-cooled
engine which has passed laboratory
tests but is still comparatively un
tried. The production of air-cooled
motors can be doubled within twelve
months, it is believed, and the Allison
Company, is expected to produce at
least 500 engines a month a year
from now.
There is renewed speculation as to
the intentions of President Roosevelt
as the Democratic Convention ap
proaches. There is no doubt that the
President can have the Democratic
nomination. In fact, it will be his
without the asking unless he abso
lutely declines to run. The discus
sion about the third term has been
going on for many months, but the
President has managed to keep quiet
on the subject himself.
Generally, his friends assert that
the Chief Executive prefers not to
run and while it has been assumed,
within recent weeks, that Mr. Roose
velt would seek a third term, the
trend of thought last week was one
of doubt with some observers assert
ing that he is less inclined to ran now
that he was some weeks ago. The
truth of the matter is that nobody
knows what the President will do
except the President himself and be
will not make his attitude clear until
the Convention assembles.
There is considerable talk 0/ a
Third Party ticket with some indica
tions that definite action will await
the Democratic Convention. Senator
Burton K. Wheeler has already warn
ed the Democrats that a "new and
great anti-war party" will be formed
unless the Party pledges not to send
Acerioan soldiers to foreign shores.
The Senator, incidentally, was des
m ? a ? 1
cribed to followers of Mr. Townsend,
in convention aspemoied at St. Louis,
as the only Democrat who can beat
Willlrie by no lees a person that John
L. Lewis, the CIO chieftain who was
particularly active in the early days
of the Republican Convention.
The United States, through Secre
tary of State Cordell Hull, makes it
plain that this country is standing on
its Far Eastern policy regardless of
Japan's declaration for "an Asiatic
Monroe Doctrine." While no sharp
issue has been taken to the Japanese
assertion, the basic policies of this
country in regard to national policies
as applicable to the Far East, remain
unchanged.
. i [?
The possibility that Japan may
take aggressive action in new quar
ters in the Far East is a recognized
possibility, but until this happens,
the position of the United States will
probably remain unclarified. Secre
tary Hull has always stood' for the
Open Door policy and the full validi
ty of treaties concerning the Far
East to which this^ountry is a party.
Contracts awarded for forty-four
warships and one non-combatant nav
al vessel laft week were let within
two hours after President Roosevelt
signed the "speed-up bill? to hurry
naval ship construction. /.This eon
tract letting followed allocation of
ships to governmental and private
yards and leaves only three aircraft
carriers-end two craters to be award
ed. It should be understood that the
ships discussed were authorised un
der the Vinson 11 per cent expansion
bill. In addition, there is no vender
consideration in Congress a bill pro
viding for the construction of two
hundred or more ships in a supposed
14,000,000,000 program.
- ? . 1
The strength of the United States
Navy, includes 296 ships built and
133 building or under contract There
are five others for which contracts
must yet be let ',ami, in addition, the
two hundred which would be provid
ed for in the new expansion program.
The Navy now has: 15 battleships
and 10 building; 6 aircraft carriers
and 2 building; 18 heavy cruisers and
4 building; 19 light cruisers and 16
building; 236 destroyers and 61 build
ing; 101 submarines and 41 building.
Proposed construction includes, ac
cording' to estimates, 9 battleships, 5
aircraft carriers, 12 heavy cruisers,
12 light cruisers, 122 destroyers and
40 submarines.
