THE RED BOGEY | NEW WARPLANES DIARY OF LOCAL

And Upholders Of Democracy

(Special Air Mail Service

|

For The Air Force

Here are two items of air news which will affect the whole future of flying in this country:

1. Within four months the RAF. will be flying new warplanes cap- able of 300 miles an hour.

2. The first helicopter which can rise and descend like a lift from a street or roof is to be built at the Blackburn Airplane Company's factory at Brough, near Hull.

The great speed-up of the RAF. now in progress means the end or the obsolete machines that have been retained year after year in the Royal Air Force in the hope of disarmament abroad..

At lenst five squadreris are equippeď with twelve-year-old bombing machines not capable of ninety m.ph. These will be re- placed with the new 300 m.p.h. bombers,

FLYING BACKWARDS Existing five-year-old Fury inter- Captor fighter types are being re- equipped with the new Kestrel VI. 640 h.p. engine. This will increase the Fury's speed to about 250 m.p.h.

London, Sept. 3. There is something rather ludi- crous in the spectacle of those great upholders ΟΙ democracy Britain and the United States, the arch-destroyer of democracy Italy. and a little, hanger-on of the Fascist group. Latvia, almultañe ously complaining to the Soviet Government about the speeches made at the Communist Congress. Mr. Roosevelt's intervention is easily understood; his country has, towards Communists, liberal traditions; anti-Communism is a sort of mania; and there is reason tq suspect that if he chooses to get indignant at the boastings of Mr. Earl Browder in Moscow it is be- cause he thinks it good politics not to appear (at the moment) too Radical. Mussolini protests as a matter of cynical form. But Sir Bamuel Hoare ought to have more sense of proportion. It is a little childish after all these years for the Foreign Office to rediscover the Communist International. It is merely allly-to-protest-because- Communist leaders have been say- ing that the great task of British politics is to get rid of the National Government, Other people besides Communists would also say that. It would have been more sensible If Lord Chilston had been instruct- ed to congratulate the Soviet Gov- ernment on its wisdom in notice- ably withdrawing the extent of its support of the Communist Inter- national and the Communist In-cooled engine' amidships. This will ternational on its surprising change of policy. The speeches at the Moscow Congress show clearly that Communism 1s on the defensive. It has ceased to promise a world revolution round the corner, and In concerned only (like the British Guvernment) to avert Fascism.

NEW - NOTE

The new helicopter is the inven- tion of an Hungarian, M. asboth.

These are some of the things it will do:

Climb absolutely vertically at 1,500 feet a minute.

Hover or fly backwards, cruise at 120 mm.p.h.

Beat two people, take 1001bs. of | luggage, and enough fuel to y from London to Parizo

Descend at Bfteen feet Der second like a parachuté.
