Washington, Aug. 22.
There is not the slightest foundation for American reports from London that Anglo-Americen discussions have started for a military alliance, it is stated here.
As a general rule, attacks which developed without a warning would be on a comparatively light scale; for where large formations of raiders were reported public warnings would be given more freely. If they stopped their work and went to the ground every time an aircraft was in the neighbourhood, they would themsel be sabotaging their war production, thus playing into the enemy's hands; could not be won without takks, Sir John Anderson adds.—
