Airplane, Explosives Expert Regrets Lack in Defense Program CLEAR personal opinion is that no military force KS could, in any circumstances, in- vade the United States from Europe or Asia," said Lester Barlow, nationally known authority on airplanes and high explosix'es, as he sat and placid waters Thursday. looked over the of Clear Lake Clear Lokt Churches "If we get into the war in the near future shall have to go where it is; it won't be brought, to us. The potential air power of the nation is so great as to make it utterly impossible for any military power across the sea to approach within 1,000 miles by any means for invasion of the western hemisphere.

Bombing planes could reach our shores and strike our cities but could only torment us. They could not provide invasion. "The thing behind the war so far as the United States and Brit- ain are concerned is LESTER BARLOW the barter system of Hitler or international money control system which permits commerce to exist only upon payment of interest on money necessary to credit the flow of the world's commerce. if "This explains why there can be, according to authorities of America and Great Britain, no negotiated peace. One side or the other must be destroyed if the two controlling factions are left to figat it out.

In any case citizens of all nations will lose. There will be no victory for America or any nation and in the end Americans will have a greater disappointment than they had in the last war. "This, we must admit, is an interesting time in which to live and whether we like it or not, tremendous events and gigantic upheavals of society are just ahead of us. "I hope the United States can retain its. two fundamentals, the right of individual initiative' and the right of private ownership of p-operty.

If American people are to save these absolute necessities for our happiness we must be alert to head off forces right here in America out to destroy those foundations of American traditional liberties. Heal enemies ot America are here inside the country and many are American born." Mr. Barlow spoke of the need for American defenses to be advanced as rapidly as possible and regretted the fact that scientific military men have not been allowed to help direct the national defense program. He i the case of Simon Lake, inventor of the modern level keel submerging submarine which would solve, Mr. Barlow thinks, many of the present day submarine problems.

He also spoke of J. Walter Christie, who has incorporated in light submarines retractable tank treads which allow them to crawl out of water on to any type of ground. Doctor Christie also has in. mind a type of high speed tank. Landing tanks by! air without a specially prepared field is 'another astounding possibility advanced by Mr.

Christie. "I saw a cablegram from England two weeks ago stating that a heavy Christie tank had performed 64 miles an hour in a ploughed field test. I do not 'believe the United States has or is constructing a tank able to travel more than 35 miles an ftour under such conditions," he said. Mr. Barlow also spoke ol the Glenn L.

Martin dive bomber which was abandoned by our own navy and later taken up by Hitler and proved practicable. The parachute invasion proposal was first made by Floyd Smith, American pioneer air pilot, but it took Hitler to adopt it for modern warfare.
