Cannot Last More Than Three or Four Days London, June 12.
The Germans are suffering "colossal" losses in men and equipment in the gigantic battle in France which is now entering its eighth day, a military spokesman said here this afternoon. He added that the Nazis could not continue the battle much longer, The spirit and bravery of the French troops was beyond all imagination, he asserted. The fighting in France is like the battle of Verdun in intensity but on a much bigger scale.
The British authorities, he went on, are confident that the Germans will reach the limit of their physical capacity and will have to give up in three or four days at the most.
In conclusion, he said that while French troops were also under a considerable strain, pressure on al tacking forces is always much greater than on the defenders—Havas.
