* . SEA POWER ON WINGS
First from the Coral Sea, then from the Battle of Midwav
have come two imposing lessons on the new strategy of naval .
warfare——lessons of a sort that such.confirmed airmen as May.
or De Seversky have been’ preaching since long before the
“present war started.
One of the lessons was brought home by the
similarity of two comments mad¢ on the same day by reputable observers. one concerning. Coral Sea, the other Midway.
“Te was a battle of aircraft carriers . . . the modern rulers
of the seas.” said Stanlev Johnston, Chicago Tribune correspondent. “The surface fleets which fought the battle never
saw each other, and during most of the fighting were from 80

to 180 miles anart. This.is the story I have to tell—the first of
its kird in all history.”
On the day when Johnston's article appeared, the current .
Time magazine was carrying this comment on the more recent .
Midwav battle. .
“Sy far as the communicues indicated. the greater portion of the two fleets never got within a day’s sailing distance
of each other. Most of the action was fought by aircraft.”Both of these sources also pointed the No. 2 lesson of the
two engagements. Time did it with particular clarity.
‘In the Japanese fleet of battleships. cruisers, destroyers, and submarines, the capital ship was the aircraft carrier.
That fleet. built around sea-borne air power, had to retreat
before U. S. air power in a still mightier form: The land-based.
airplane, now come into its own as a dominant weapon of
naval warfare.
“The U. S. not Japan—is stronger now and potentially,
in long-range heavy load, land-based army bombers of the
kind which sent the Japanese reeling back from Midway: and
it was in this fact. rather than in the actual comparative losses
‘at Midway, that the U. S. saw the face of victory.”
These two battles—Midway and Coral Sea, are America’s two greatest naval engagements of the current war. Their
lessons—that sea power is worthless without air power to cover it, and that land-based air power is far superior to sea-borne
air power, when the action is within range of land—appear to
be conclusive.

periodicals is amazing, and obviously nothing more than a
childish retaliation for well-deserved criticism that has been
leveled at the present congress by nearly every newspaper in
the nation.
From time immemorial, all regular newspapers, magazines and other periodicals, big and small, have been handled
as secotid-class mail, under a special rate schedule and snecific
restrictions and regulations imposed by the postoffice department.
The committee’s recommendation that second class rates
be raised is termed a revenue producing measure, but it actually is a virtually undisguised slap at the press in general, for
calling the public’s attention to the many serious failines of
this particular congress—not the least of these failings being
the disgracefully dilatory manner in which this very vroup.
the. house ways and means committee, has held up action on
. the tax bill.
But if congress is truly interested in the revenue-produc”
ing possibilities of tampering with the mails.’as well as__oldfashoned back-stabbing, it would do well to.look in its own
backyard.
For it is well known that the volumes of franked hot-ai~
which congressmen themselves sent out, and the reams of
publicity drivel that the various departments put out—all in
postage free envelopes—costs the post office department a lot
more than the special rate now granted for second class mail.
The members of this committee had best stick to levying
taxes to win the war, instead of misusing their unquestioned
taxing power by wielding it as a club to silence critics —Sacramento Union.

We hope his life with cheer now

To the very end of his days.
Perhaps Dad’s hair’ is getting thin,
And his tummy’s growing like
mad;
But growing old’s no cardinal sin,
And -hes still a wonderful dad.
He’s the chap, when things are
broke,
Can fix 'em right away.
He can laugh right out ata
practical joke,
And he works like the Dickens

On the weeds that growin the

’ At last he’s king in his house.
If it’s silence he wants—it’s only
just fair,’
That all must-be still as a mouse.
Or perhaps a party is what he’d like,
Or to play with his little boy’s
train. *
Or to take a ride on the family

Do not scold him or make him
explain.
Father, you’ve gone through a heck
of a lot, ;
And done it all for the best.
So this day for once, you’re not on
the spot.
And well-entitled to rest.
Your family likes you pa—they do,
And you’ve a long way yet,
To go before you’re nearly through—
Still full of pep, you bet.
Well dad, the point we’re trying

In these poetic pranks.
