Show OXE HUNDRED THOUSAND AIRPLANES The government is to have 100,000 airplanes built and sent to France as quickly as they can be constructed. Our own men will pilot those planes. Many a fair young life will be sacrificed sac-rificed in the clouds, but for every one who falls to his death the lives of a hundred will be saved in the trenches. No saner or more far reaching plan was ever devised by our government than the sending of these 100,000 planes to the French front. With a hundred thousand, or fifty thousand, additional planes in the air the eyes of the German army will be blinded while ours will still have light. The rest will be but a matter of time, strategy, and nerve. |
