BRITAIN’S PROGRESS
BRAVERY OF PILOTS NAZI PLANES FLEE (United Press Assn.—Elec. ,Tel. Copyright) (Received August 12, 1.40 p.m.) LONDON, August 11 Mr A. Duff-Cooper, in a speech, said: “Just as we retain command of the sea so we arc rapidly assuming command of the air. Every engagement has diminished the enemy’s superiority and increases our hope. To-day we have torn over 50 Germans from the skies. “It is a remarkable fact that the Germans who so long prepared for the war, should at this critical stage have demonstrated the inferiority of their machines and pilots. Our pilots go out day and night seeking battle and invariably find that the enemy flees on sight. “Each battle brings the day nearer when we shall establish unquestionable air superiority.”
