NEEDED IN RUSSIA
PLANES THAT MIGHT RAID BRITAIN ADMISSION BY GOEBBELS. TALK OF “SPITEFUL ATTACKS.” (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 1.5 p.m.) LONDON. August 12. Goebbels admits that Germany is not mass raiding Britain because her planes are needed in Russia. In an article published in the “Das Reich” Goebbels says: “It would be possible to withdraw several thousand planes from the east and hurl them against Britain, in massive reprisal attacks, on a scale which would deprive the R.A.F. of any desire to terrorise German towns by spiteful attacks. She does not do this because she is fighting this war to win and not to indulge a desire for revenge, which would split up her forces, which is the aim of the enemy war leaders. The German method is to concentrate on a great plan, from which we shall never diverge however unfavourable the attendant effect.”
