BRITISH SUPERIOR
DUNKIRK EMBARKATION. (United Press Association— By Electric Telegraph. —Copyright.);/ : (British Official Wireless.) Received June 10, 9.50 a.m. RUGBY, June 9. “The miracle of deliverance,” as Mr Churchill described, the embarkation through Dunkirk of a third of a million men the capture of whom the German High Command had already claimed is the theme of much comment in weekly journals. , Time and Tide says: “One of the main causes of the British achievement in Flanders was the superiority as fighters of our infantry, our gunners, and our mechanised men. They were from the outset conscious of that Seriority and the sense of it from t-to fight. It was; in fact, only: men completely conscious of superiority who could have conducted those oldfashioned counter-attacks from the very beaches of Dunkirk. It was the feeling that permeated the whole Army.”
