FRENCH AIR CONTROL.
BRITISH PEER'S INTERVIEW. PARIS, January 3. Viscount Rotlicrmere, in an interview published throughout France, emphasises that no country is more earnest than France for peace, but, like Britain, she is faced with the fact that aeroplanes have profoundly changed the defence problem. "Knowing that France is the mainstay of European peace," he says, "I should like to see the aviation corps raised to a strength of 20,000 war 'planes of the fastest fighting and heaviest bombing types. Complete air mastery in France's hands would establish European peace on a basis as stable as' when Britain exercised supreme control of the sea."
