HAVE LOST ALL HOPE
M. BLONDEL SUMS UP GERMAN ATTITUDE ■ (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, October 11. The Germans have lost all hope and faith in victory, according tb M. Jean Blondel, a former French Minister in Dublin, who joined the Fighting French when ordered by Vichy to return from the legation at Sofia. When interviewed in Cairo, he said the Bulgarians themselves now admitted that they were facing their third defeat. M. Blondel said the German naval attache in Sofia declared a few months ago that the German navy was absolutely inadequate in ships and personnel to perform the tremendous work asked of it. One German officer told the French naval attache: “ Monsieur, if I was French I would be with General de Gaulle.”
