Combining a discussion of the fundamentals of modern naval Warfare with a graphic and stir ring account of the principal events at sea during the present war, Paul Schubert presents in a lucid and entertaining fashion material about which every naval officer should be fully informed. Ml’. Schubert, formerly a mid shipman at the U. S. Naval Aca demy, and an officer aboard the battleship Texas, later aboard the cruiser Concord, has been writing about navies since 1924, Since 1939 he has been broadcasting from New York’s station WOR, and is now one of the best known and best informed radio commen tators on naval affairs. That sea power is dead, the pre mise on which Germany began the war in 1939, Mr. Schubert proves fallacious. While navies have been tremendously influenced by the advent of aerial weapons, the thing called “sea power” has not been weakened, but has actually been strengthened by the evolu tion of aviation. The evacuation of Dunkerque, was a turning point in the ap proach to modern sea power. The prediction according to Schubert, that sea power will be replaced by air power, is fantastic. The re sult of each novel method of at tack has not been to make capital ships disappear, but merely to speed their continued evolution— to make them stronger both de fensively and offensively. Only na tions that can compete in this development can hope for domi nant position in the world. By Ens. W. R. Raudenbiish, USNR, Academic Department Prelude to War Will Be Shown Here Wednesday “Prelude to War,” produced un der the direction of Hollywood’s Frank Capra serving in the Spe cial Services branch of the Army as the first of a series to instruct American soldiers and sailors in the causes for which they fight, will be the featured film at the Pre-Flight showing in Memorial Hall next Wednesday evening. The film is an excellent editing of newsreels, travel and dramatic pictures, with nai’ration by Wal ter Huston. Second film to be shown that night will be “Quizcraft No. 3.” The movies start at 1930, and all Pre-Flight personnel are invited.
