U.S. WAR PLANES
MOTIVES OF NEW EXPORT
POLICY
NEW YORK, November 11
The Washington correspondent of the "New York Times" says the new policy permitting the export of United States service type planes is motivated partly by the experts' desire to see the equipment tested under' combat and also by the more important economic consideration of the expansion of United States production to enable a steadier and cheaper source of supply for military aircraft than has been available under the hitherto cautious purchasing policy of the army and the navy.
Already the services have benefited by important price reductions in aeroplane engines attributable directly to foreign orders of sufficient size to enable mass production.
