“A PANIC MEASURE”
BLACKOUTS CRITICISED CAUSE OF MANY DEATHS LONDON, Feb. 16. The British Medical Journal criticises the total blackout as a panic measure. “ Deaths rose in the first month from 500 to 1100, thus Hitler’s air fprce is able to kill 600 Britons without loss. The authorities have almost completely ignored the two kinds of strength for which Britons are eminent —courageous endurance and capacity for reasonable compromise.”
