BOMB DAMAGE
“EXTRAORDINARILY HEAVY” IN GERMANY.” NAZI ADMISSION AND CLAIMS. LONDON, October 17. A Luftwaffe spokesman, Major Waifgang Blei, broadcasting from Berlin raido, said: “The damage which the enemy is doing by bombing in Germany cannot be denied; it is extraordinarily heavy, but compared with the total property the damage is smaller than the enemy thinks.
“The damage would be far greater if the enemy directed his attacks against the military front. The Germans’ labour power is neither destroyed nor disturbed. The enemy cannot reach the German labour power, and therefore cannot win the war. The war can be won only on the military field. The Luftwaffe could answer every British blow with harder blows, which the British, for all their tenacity, would be unable to endure.”
