QUESTIONS FOR GERMANS
MR AMERY'S WAR SURVEY. "For us the war is only just beginning,” said Mr L. S. Amery, Secretary for India, broadcasting in the German news service recently. “Hitler may stand today where Napoleon stood after Jena and Austerlitz. The same increasing moral resistance from those whom he has conquered, the same need to break the fetters of the English blockade, the same inability to go back on his career of aggression—they will break him as they broke Napoleon; but they will break him much sooner. Do you realise that the tide is beginning to turn already?” Mr Amery asked his German listeners. “What has become of the much-heralded invasion and conquest of England? Do you realise that it is already beginning to peter out in a series of inconclusive air raids, each one of which proves the superiority of the Royal Air Force in quality, and brings us British nearer to the day when we shall enjoy superiority in numbers as well and can strike home at Germany far more effectively than we have done so far?"
