Get 'Go Ahead' Signal

WASHINGTON. April 11 -
01 ) The Franco-Brit lull Allies
today got the long sought "go

an armada or the latest type
Atnorlcau fighting plauos.
Simultaneously the navy decid-
ed to expedito the construction
of 10 now warships. In congress,
opposition appeared against pro-
posed reductions lit tlie building

The war department cleared
the Allied way yesterday by re-
leasing for export three uf the
air corps newest pursuit ships,
all crodl|ctl wlllt spends of 400
miles an hour or better. The
plants ere designed to prey on
raiding bombers and to fight off
any faster craft accompanying
them.
The action promised an end to
the Allied delay In placing an ws-
Haunted l.OOO.OOO.OO# order for
about 8.000 American military

of the pursuit ship which already
has been praised by the French

In I In* field of American de-
fense, the major developments
concerned the nnvy. To avoid loss
of time, the department decided
to start building lo new Wssels
