RED AIR FORCE
ENGAGED IN STRUGGLE FOR SUPREMACY Additional Fighters Needed TO COMBAT FLEETS OF MESSERSCHMITTS TRANSFERS SOUGHT FROM BRITAIN (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.) (Received This Day, Noon.) LONDON, July 10. According' to reports from the European capitals, the Rus-sian-German struggle for air supremacy is growing more intense and London military observers believe that the Soviet mission now in London will seek the transfer to the Red Air Force of as many fighter planes as Britain can spare. The “Daily Express’’ military correspondent says the Red Air Force, whose front line strength is far greater than has been generally estimated, needs fighters to meet the fleets of Messerschmitts operating along the whole battlefront.
