P.uk::, Muski'non. BALTIMORE UP) Maj. Alexander P. De Seversky, hailing Italy's capitulation as a "victory through air power" for the Allies, believes 3.000 super-planes larger than the 70-ton Martin Mars flying boat can turn the same trick against Japan. ermany, he believes, can be tf V4 ed out of the war by the aerial rotlie in less tiian a year.

'Man for man and gun for gun we probably can defeat the Japanese in the kind of warfare in which thry are proficient, to which they are used, on land and on the sea. "But why waste the lives and the time when Japan probably could be defeated by 3.000 planes, of the proper size and design? On the other hand, it could take 500,000 little planes to do the job." The giant planes needed to defeat Japan are "something we don't have bin could have had," continued the noted advocate of aerial offensive as a major military weapon. De Seversky, in Baltimore in connection with the opening of "Victory Through Air Power." a Walt Disney adaptation of his book by that name, said in an interview that lie dici not believe that Germany ever would be invaded, but would merely be "occupied" when the time comes, just as Italy is now being occupied. The war. speed and stunt flyer said the Italian surrender became inevitable when the Allied planes took over supremacy of the skies.

"Victory through air power does not mran the destruction of a nation." he held, adding that conquest could be accomplished by "assuming control of the air over the enemy's territory and holding over him the power to destroy." i Tons of ore can now be recovered from pillars left in mines by a new method of determining rock pressures based on "listening" to sub-audible sounds in the rock.
