The Air War?

Sir Archibald Sinclair,

Air Minister, in an interview with F. G. H. Salusbury, discusses the prospects for the coming year.

IR ARCHIBALD SINCLAIR, Secre- tary of State for Air, is a minister of considerable charm. This quality of his overlaid our conversation on the pros- pects of the war in the air much as the manner of a dentist who smiles as he says: "I am afraid this may hurt you a little."

For we talked of uncomfortable things. Lasked uncomfortable questions. To some he had the frankest answers. To others the replies were less frank, because I am not a member of the Government. But it was all done with the charm which-if I may stretch the simile so far-reinforces. confidence in the dentist.

By BILLIKEN probably the most awkward.

I wanted to know if Sir Archibald was satisfied with the existing co-operation between the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy and the Army-in other words, if certain ancient difficul- Ities had been smoothed away.

"Certainly. On behalf of the Royal Air Force I can say that I am entirely satisfled with the co-operation which we receive from the other Services. The operations in Libya were a pat- Lern of effective Inter-Service

co-operation.

"Such co-operation is continu- ous, too, in the work of the Coastal Command, which helps to guard our convoys from sub- marines and air raiders. I know what valuable work these crews do from personal knowledge of individual squadrona and what fine crews and aircraft tho [Coastal Command must have to stand up to the conditions of their tasks, particularly in win- ter.

"We are increasing their num- bers, and improving their equip ment. The part they play is essential in bringing us our food and supplies."

By one of those happy coin- cidences which work sometimes for the reporter, Sir Archibald had just returned from his dentist when I interviewed him.

That is why I began na I did. That is why I feel that Hitler's war on nerves is unlikely to succeed in the Air Ministry.
