Biggest Carrier. Other War Craft Escori Queen

By GOMEI JONES ABOARD SS Mermaid (Reuters) —-Britain's biggest aircraft carrier and 13 other vessels of the British Mediterranean fleet swung into line Sunday to escort Queen Elizabeth

into Malta. Elizabeth, the Duke of Edin- burgh, and their two children

watched from the royal yacht Brit- annia as the warships swept up at 25 knots and passed in review.

Five-year-old Prince Charles and three - year - old Princess Anne looked on excitedly as 21-gun sa- iutes boomed out from each of the ships.

More thrills followed for the chil- dren, reunited with their parents in Tobruk. Libya, Saturday after a five-month separation while the Queen and duke made a round-the- world Commonwealth tour.

First their great-uncle, Admiral Earl Mountbatten, commander of the Mediterranean fleet, swung over to the yacht in a bosn's chair from his flagship, the cruiser Glas-

gow.

Late in the day, the cruisers, de- stroyers and frigates and the air- craft carrier Eagle were joined by three fleet submarines. As they ap- proached ihe royal yacht the sub- marines submerged. then resurf- aced abreast the Britannia.

JETS FLY OVER

Later, the 36,800-ton Eagle sent up her attnchcr jet planes and squadrons of Avenger and Skyraid- ers in an aerial fly-past.

Bright sun gleamed on white bow waves as the fleet approached the yacht in two lines. passing on either side of the vessel. Then both lines turned inward at speed and passed alongside the Britannia to take up their escort.itatlons.

Earlier. Admiral Mountbatten gignalled the Queen: “On behalf of all ships present. I have_ the honor to welcome Your Majesty and the Duke of Edinburgh back to the fleet in which His Royal High- ness served as first lieutenant of (the frigate) Chequers and as can- lain of (the frigate) Magpie. both of whom are in the company find in whose life Your Majesty I>l8Y€d such an active part."

Report Red leis Are Poised Close To Indo-China

By Alton C. Fay

WASHINGTON, (AP) — Reports reaching here say .8» SW31?“ °‘ Chinese MiG-15 jet fighters and bombers are poised on airdromes close to the Indo-China border. from where they can stab swiftly if Moscow and Peiping decide Red China. should intervene more act- ivel '.

Tlie white vapor from lilf:ll‘lli'1Illz craft, seen almost as far down as Saigon near the southern end of Irido-China, suggests the Red air force is making aerial reconna-5- sance of targets it would attack if ordered to strike. _

The number of MiG-15 fighters concentrated on alrdromes aloizil the China.-Indo-China border, in- cluding two big fields with hard- surfaced runways, is more than 600. any persons returning from the Far East. In taddlllon to the MIG-5 there are believed to be a. number of light, twin-jet bombers.

For the last two years, Red China has been building up two big sullply areas close to the border. which in addition to providing elllllilmem for shipment south to the Vietmlnh ground forces, presumably contain stockpiles of fuel and spare parl-ll for aircraft.

FRENCH IN DANGER

ficulty—without opposition air.

From the United States they are believed to have received about 30 B-26 liglit bombers, about two score navy Corsair fighters and up to 50 C-47 transports.

But in addition to the compar- atively small size of the air force operating for the French and Viet Nam there is a lack of pilots. Es’.- lmatcs are that for each 10 or ll planes there are only about eight

lois.

SMALLER AREA

Whilc thc size of the air force is considerably smaller ihan that used by the Allies in the Korean war for cutting enemy supply lines and for support of friendly positions the area requiring coverage is like-1 wise smaller.
