London, Jan. 25.
Hitler was not to blame for the German Army's failure to wipe out the British Army during the Dun- volume de- kirk evacuation in 1940, an official war clared today.
The volume, second of a series of war histories written with Government approval, said German military apologists claimed that Hitler's "amateur interference" in the German campaign allowed the British to escape.

Says American Scientist
Boston, Jan. 24.
An American scientist said today he did not believe the so-called "lost civilisation of Atlantis” ever existed.
For years archaeologists have stated that in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean they believed there existed the remains of the lost city. Expeditions have attempted to locate it. Relics have even been re- covered from the Atlantic and offered as proof of the existence of the lost city.
