AMERICAN PLANES
■» —« GREAT & GROWING OUTPUT INCREASING NUMBERS FOR PACIFIC. GIGANTIC AIR OFFENSIVES IN ULTIMATE PROSPECT. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 1.5 p.m.) WASHINGTON, February 6. The United States will send an increasing number of bombers to the South-west Pacific,, says the “New York Post.” The United States plane output has reached a new high level and is growing rapidly. January production showed an enormous increase on December and the months ahead will bring even happier results. New bomber assembly plants in the lyiiddle West States will come into production in the next three months, and by June production may jump fifty per cent. Washington is confident that by August or September the United States will be able to meet major needs for planes on the active fronts, at least in terms adequate for defence. In 1943 production will be great enough to warrant gigantic air offensives wherever we choose to make them.
