dition to blasting effectively the defence and communications.
Poor weather would not be so serdóus a handicap for the defending force operating in home air. The fact is, if the current airblitz is, as advertised, an "all out" air offensive, it is neither as extensive nor effec-five as the Luftwaffe had been thought capable of.
Considering the need for servicing home-coming machines, making complicated repairs as well as the desirability of resting crews on alternate days, Chancellor Adolf Hitler must have been putting a large number of planes into use.
Opinion differs whether all of his attacking force is at his disposal against England, because of necessary deductions for watching the Russia border.
At any rate, he presumably could put many more planes into the air daily than so far to blast the pathway for an invasion. How long the Luftwaffe could hold the peace, however, is another question because its losses would be multiplied and its repair problem tremendous.—United Press.
