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. I asked 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.

"Certainly. On behalf of the Royal Air Force I can say that I am entirely satisfied 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.
