Though little Is heard about it In comparison with the momentous happenings that daily occur on the western
and eastern fronts, an Important phase of the war is being conducted in Mesopotamia. A British army is steadll) j
banging away at the Turks, driving them farther and further into the desert. While the Tommies fighting In the j
snow and cold on the western front may envy their comrades in the Eupbrntes-Tigris valley, the men fighting In
rt, desert are not having a picnic. They have more heat than they can stand; the arid desert is Intolerable to whit*
men. Yet they are keeping at It. and this British official photograph shows one of their big field pieces, Just as It

LONDON. March 22. —(Correspon
dence of the Associated Pi ess). —
“Doth the Gemians and ou»selves
nave to admit that neither g.ns nor
i defensive planes can always stop a
?aider whc know:- his business and is
■ equipped with a first class macb'ne
| gun ” writes an *.•. "onauticai expe t
i commenting in the livening Standard
on the recent air rains on Londoi.
“The intensive battle barrage in
Flanders is crossed and recrossed in
cessantly by airplanes. Our raids on
i Mannheim and other German towns
show that the enemy cannot bar our
machines from reaching *\eir >bjac
tive, an(i the recent rai ’a indicate that
German* can penetrate the London
defenses.
Dut there is a tremendous change
in the conditions governing the raids
as compared with those existing less
than a y^ar ago. Of the many air
planes which may now approach Lon
don very few indeed get through. The
massed fleet raid has given away tc
attacks by single machines or veiy
small groups. Never again are we

tacle of a big formation of enemy
machines moving with immunity above
our capital.
“In this respect we have reduced
the danger very considerably, for with
modern bombs, and modern improve
ments in bomb release, a fleet of roll
ers could now do terrible damage in
London. The massed attack ha3 been
broken np, however, and now our dan
ger comes from units and very small
groups. We cannot make light of this
development ail the same for the Ger
mans have formed the habit of join
ing their raids in a kind of Indian file, |
group after group coming over to
England, and each endeavoring to
send one or more machines over Lon
don.
“The single or small group of raid
ers is most elusive, and no agency yet
put into practise has been able to stop !
this foim of attack. The heaviest ba’-- j
rage is jumped over by a daring pilot,
and, so immense is the sky space and ;
so defective is visibility at night that;
great fleets of pursuers often fail to
bring him down.
“But our airplanes are growing
more skillful in breaking up the fleets
and with further experience, aided by
more liberal use of very fast machines
we should be able to give every solo
raider a terrific chase from the coast
to London and back again. For this
chasing we require the best brain
work, coupled with a lavish supply of
the best machines. Until th's system
is carried to perfection we must con- ,
tinue our gunnery barrage.
The object of this fire is not so
much to hit the raider as to drive him
very high as thereby we fore* h;m to
come rather lightly loaded with bombs
and in addition his accuracy of aim is
diminished.”
