LOCAL AND GENERAL
Experience gained during the Great War, together with the modern development of aviation to the stage when swiftly moving machines could take the air with a load of several tons, indicated conclusively that in a country like New Zealand defensive measures, if ever required in the future, would depend mainly upon efficiency in the Air Force unit, said Mr H. G. Dickie, M.P., at the Returned Soldiers’ Re-union at Hawera last evening. With that object in view, as well as with the aim of keeping pace as far as possible with the progress being made in other parts of the world in the new method of transport, steps were being taken to foster in the Dominion the quality known as air sense.
