The result, it was hoped, would be a stimulation of interest in private flying and a consequent increase in the productiv ity of American aircraft factories. “I t is more in keeping with the American spirit of preparedness.” the Authority said, “to build up a great pool of men and machines, dedicated to and engaged in the pursuits of peace, but yielding first place to no o t h e r n a t i o n in fly i n g sk ill o r te c h n i ca l d e v e l o p m e n t , a n d q u ic k ly a d a p t able to military needs in the event of war.” S o m e O p p o s i t i o n E x p r e s s e d T h e President’s announcement came as he prepared to send to Con gress recommendations for a vast ex pansion of the national defense. High officials have said the administration contemplates increasing the number J of the nation’s warplanes to some [ 13.000. There were signs, however, that critics of vast increases in military 1 f spending were preparing for a fight. ; Senator Adams (D., Colo.) said the ‘ danger of a foreign invasion w a ? : p,ms ai?,d much less than the danger of eco- ' material nomie collapse from an unbalanced ; budget Y.) declared “war mongers of the New Deal” unnecessarily j pans-ion alarmed the people.

There have been reports that other high officers of the army could not see eye to eye with the Adminis tration on defense plans. These w e re denied 10 days ago by General Malm Craig, chief of staff. Supporting the President’s forth coming proposals, Congressional cir cles have heard, will be “startling ev idence” that Germany’s aerial force and aircraft factories geared to w a r demands threaten to upset complete ly the world balance of m ilitary pow er.

A key objective is expansion o f the American aircraft industry’s capac ity, through commercial and export as well as military orders, to keep pace with developments abroad.
