Russian Air Power Rated Superior In Far East
Washington (U.P.)—Russia has tipped the balance of air power in the Far East in her favor by stationing one-fourth of her total combat planes in that area, military intelligence officials estimated today.
The Russian operational air fleet was estimated by these officials to be 20,000 first-line combat planes. They said indications were that Red Air Force strength in the Orient totaled 5,000 planes.
In addition to the Far Eastern air arm, the officials estimated that the Reds have deployed 7,000 planes along the Iron Curtain in Western Europe and about 8,000 in the Soviet Union itself.
The exact numerical strength of American air power in the Far East is veiled in secrecy, but officials admitted that the U.S. planes were far outnumbered in the area. They also said that the United States has as much air power based in the Far East as it feels it can spare now.
A post-Korean war cloak of secrecy has made overall American air strength a matter of speculation. More than 3,000 military planes were turned over to the armed forces last
car by the aircraft industry, and President Truman has asked for annual production to be multiplied five-fold this year.
According to the officials, Russia's Far Eastern air arm is deployed throughout the territory east of Irkutsk and Lake Baikal, Siberia. While the planes are not now concentrated near Korea, officials pointed out that air groups can be moved rapidly.
As for aircraft quality, intelligence officials said not all of Russia's planes are modern types, particularly in the Far East. The Russians are believed to have about 7,000 jet-type planes.
The intelligence officers also said that Russia could commit her Siberian air force without disturbing her air power in the rest of the world.

Who's On Third?
Milwaukee (U.P.)—Mrs. Frank Laskin briefed her four-year-old son, Joe, for his first trip to the grocery store and sent him for a loaf of bread to be charged. Joe came back a few minutes later empty-handed and breathless. "We can have the bread all right, Mom," he said, "but who am I?"
Tree Makes Monkey Out Of Ape-Man
Boston (U.P.) Eleven-year-old Joseph P. Ward, Jr., was up a tree. He went up to play "Tarzan." He stayed up when his leg got caught in the branches. Neighbors couldn't get him down. Neither could police. Firemen finally did the trick with crowbans and a can of oil.
Fort Hood, Tex. (U.P.) They soon sent the general some men, but when Brig. Gen. Bruce C. Clarke arrived here to take command of the first armored, he discovered he was the whole first armored. The division's morning report carried a lone name in the strength figures—that of the commanding general.
