PDSH BUTTON WAR DEBUNKED 10-C THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION Jan. 22, 1950 Air Power 2 Warns 1. S. figafasl 1 Military Unpad SEIOSS DISASTER THROUGH AIR POWER, by Marshall Andrews; Rinehart; 143 pages; $2. When World War III is fought and all the hellish new weapons have been brought into play, the final decision will come when the foot soldiers are joined in battle and victory goes to the strong.

That is the opinion of the author of this oons Edited by SAM F. LUCCHESE ir book, who was born in Memphis, attended high school in Rome, college ti at Auburn and has worked on three Georgia papers, the old Atlanta Georgian- American, the Columbus I Tlnrmirpr-Sim and the An- ticians in the country put together, the writer statei. "The United States Army has a stake in this game. Andrews says, "a stake vital to the people of the country who support it, and the Army must come forward with the story of what it does and what it needs." He states further that the Navy has done itself immeasurable harm by permitting itself to be drawn into) the strategic bombing argument. Andrews issues this warning: "This nation must seV to it that no Service, Army, Navy or Air, is ever permitted to dominate its military- structure." Although Andrews lays the criticism on pretty thick, he does offer a "solution" in the final chapter of his book: The military establishment of the United Statei might well contain three forces, not separately Army, Navy and Air, but all three together in whatever proportion might be dictated by circumstances and policy at any given time.

"These might be: (1) A Combat Force, whose function would be to fight on land, at sea, in the air, or all three at once. It would be made up of combat organizations from all three services and would be commanded by an officer whose staff came from all three; (2) a Logistical Force, whose function would be to supply the Combat Force and which would be organized and commanded, in the same manner; and (3) a Support Force, which would be to train officers and men, procure food, weapons, equipment and services and operate) in general to supply the two other sources of supply. It would be organized and commanded in the same manner as the others." Such an organization, used to advantage in the field in World War II, according to Andrews, boasts both adaptability and flexibility. A manpower policy for the military services is vital, Andrews warns, adding A young man spared from home for a year of training may be saved for a lifetime." This book undoubtedly will become the center of considerable controversy. Written in nontechnical language, it exposes conditions of which the general public is' unaware.

The threat of war increases daily and it is well that books of this type shall find their way into the hands of the American people. SAM F. LUCCHESE. V'L gusta Chronicle. He is now a writer for the Washington Post.

His book is scheduled for general. release Monday. Andrews is recognized as an authority on military matters, both professionally and as a hobbyist. He has turned out a provocative; coldly logical book, one that is going to set a lot of people to thinking, since he explodes a lot of theories about warfare of the future and brands as fallacious the idea that the B-36 bomber will prove to be the weapon that will insure Andrews accuses the "air power zealots" of submerging the facts "in a flood of propaganda designed to convince the public that air power won both wars. And now this same propaganda has been directed to the purpose of substituting for the military verities a single doctrine based upon a single weapon" the B-36.

In his preface, Andrews warns: Unless the American public is exposed to another viewpoint its representatives in Congress cannot reasonably vote except for a preponderance of air power at the expense of other means of security." Andrews emphasizes that he is no pawn for military or pressure groups and his sole concern in writing this book is with maintenance of the national security. The writer is an advocate of the balanced force concept. He says that Russia is believed to have 175 divisions of her own on active service and 25 satellite divisions available." In case of war another 200 divisions could be placed in the field fully equipped iff nine to 12 months. To oppose this powerful Soviet land army, the Allied nations now have a meager 37 divisions of all types scattered over the globe. He estimates that 13 of these divisions could be put at'the front in.

Western Europe within two weeks after D-Day to oppose the mass Russia would undoubtedly throw into any assault. "There can be no question, therefore, that a war with Russia would be a land war from first to last, fought by the Allies at the end of long seaborne lines of communication. It is this fact which must be faced and accepted and made the basis of United States military doctrine," Andrews says. The air power vision of empire stops short of noth-. ing but complete domination of the nation's armed forces and the Air Force has done more to prevent real unification than both the other services plus all the poli i Till 3 Ji MARSHALL ANDREWS i -A victory for the U.

"Its contribution was not victory, as promised, but destruction "on so vast a scale that the whole of Europe was beggared and placed on relief at the expense of the American taxpayer, who already had paid out some $43,000,000,000 for its accomplishment in the first place." 4 AUTOBIOGRAPHY TITLE CHANGES BEST SELLERS Exiled Spaniard are announced Says Franco Is 'Bad Gamble SOCIETY IN AMERICA SERIES Splendor of New Orleans Comes Alive in New Book THE ROMANTIC NEW ORLEANIANS, by Robert Tallant; Dutton; 384 pages, indexed; $4.50.

Twenty-five years ago Samuel Shellabarger wrote a book about the intrepid soldier, the Chevalier de Bayard. No doubt his interest in the Bourbon conspiracy against Francis I of France in 1523 was kindled by the plots and counterplots, the colorful characters on the scene and the march of history in those colorful years. THE LAST OPTIMIST, by Julio Alvarez del Vayo; Viking; $4.

The last person you'd expect to be an optimist is an exiled leader of the Spanish Republic; the last person you'd expect to be a Socialist and Left-winger is. the son of a Spanish Army officer. Yet del Vayo is both, or all four as we learn in this spirited autobiography. His friends call him the last optimist because he hopes for the end of Franco's rule and for a secure peace, and believes in "the progress of mankind toward social justice. These are causes for which he has worked as correspondent, and also directly as participant in revolt, smuggler of weapons, rouser of the rebellious spirit and, under the republic, as ambassador, foreign minister, war commissar and delegate to the League of Nations.

Short periods in hiding, a jail -term, and a long exile have been the penalties for his intransigeance, though he is now under Franco's death sentence. He denies emphatically that Negrin was ever a Moscow tool; says if Spain deposited any gold in Soviet banks it was because Wall Street and London's City were in effect leagued with the Republic's enemies; thinks Prieto used Spanish treasure not for personal purposes, but to split the republican forces. tropolis is still fertile source material for authors lies in this interesting book, the fifth in this Dutton's Society in America Series, by the talented young writer who has produced six previous books all of them about New Orleans. When Robert Tallant was here last year we asked him if he hadn't mined just about all of the literary ore out of New Orleans. -He answered in the negative, adding that the supply was virtually inexhaustible.

New Orleans is unlike any other city in the world. New Or-leanians want to keep it just as it is. Tallant says the old-timers yearn for the return of the mule car. There are individuals and organizations dedicated to the preservation of old landmarks as well as the traditions and charm of the sprawling old city, par- the day and myths the author uses to give reality to his story. Intrigue and honor meet on the battleground of events, the selfish aims of men against the pull of progress.

Victory for the throne spells out the advance of history. The action-packed scenes are thrillingly done. The tragic romance of Renee and Pierre and the stormy, tense drama revolving around Anne and Blaise, keep the reader tense end eager to the last page. The author of "Captain From Castile," "Prince of Foxes and this splendid new novel, is a writer of compelling force.

The word romantic and New Orleans society are inexorably linked. Tallant goes way back to the early days of settlement, in 1718, when Bienville left 50 men on the present site of New Orleans to clear the ground for habitation.

From earliest times New Orleanians quickly newcomers to the city. German immigrants changed their names to French and the process continues to this day, and visitors, sayp Tallant, become "crpolized" in hardly any time at all. Huey Long was one of the people who sought to "change" New Orleans. "And look what happened to Huey," the old line Orlenians warn. Carnival season, of course, is described in considerable detail in Tallant's book.

Canrival is the heart of New Orleans social structure. Mardi Gras is only one day, Shrove Tuesday, the day before the beginning of Lent, but Carnival is the entire period beginning on Jan. 6, which is Twelfth-Night or Epiphany, and ending at midnight on Shrove Tuesday. The length of the period varies greatly and may be 30 to 60 days, and there is plenty going on during that time and -Tallant vividly describes the gayety, supplying incidents and anecdotes that have made history in New Orleans. The splendor of the old city comes to life as her great personalities pass in parade.

I feudal families of Middle France, who fought to retain their power and prestige against absorption into a unified France.

The king's extravagant ways and weaknesses were known to all, as were the scheming of the Regent, Louise de Savoie. Men like the Marquis de Vaulx, saw beyond the present rulers as he had seen beyond former kings to the vision of united France; a nation tinder one banner. To this he had dedicated his heart and sword for most of his lifetime. When Blaise makes his decision for "God and France" he becomes an enemy to the Bourbon cause. This provides the author with a plot and setting to which he does full justice, having steeped himself in French history of that day and with a wide knowledge of the literature and the language.

"The King's Cavalier" is thrilling reading. The Marquis de Vaulx, on King's business to Switzerland, accompanied by Blaise, Pierre de la Barre, and his retinue, stops at the de Lalliere castle unannounced and inadvertently stumbles upon a secret meeting of Bourbon supporters. This affords the author the opportunity of presenting the players of his piece, the unbelievably unscrupulous Jean de Norville, agent and representative of the Bourbon duke; the de Lalliere family, Including Renee, whose love for Pierre furnishes the scene for the sweetest and saddest scenes in the book.
