JAILED AS A SPY
By MADAME TABOUIS
Those who stated, as I did recently, that the Reich had no longer enough men to attack on the Western Front caused sceptical smiles in cortain quarters of London and Paris.
1.
But irrefutablo proof that such is the case is provided by the disputes now,raging,round the Fubrer, concerning the choice of the date for the offensive against France and Britain.
In Paris circles astonishment has been growing at the fact that the Fuhrer is allowing France and Britain the necessary time to perfect their defences and consolidate the positions acquired.
The reason is the lack of effec-four Gorman submarine flotillas (2nd, tives for attack. The position ath, 7th and 8th) were instructed to acek out German war and merchant is as follows!.

Recently the Fahrer held a meeting of his Secret Council of Nazi chiefs, General Staff and other close colla- borators. After he had appointed himself Cenumander-in-Chief on the Western Front and tharged Goring with the general conduct of operations under him, the plan of attack and the date of its execution were discussed,
15 "Missing" Classos The Fuhrer then realised what deep and passionate divergence of opinion was existing among those whose busi- ness is to organise the offensive.
Goring maintains that without Italian or Russian aid he could, start- ing even in mid-October, succeed in piercing the Western Front by uerial attuck on England, mass assault on the Maginot Line and violation of Dutch and, Swiss neutrality,

November 21, 1939..
FIELD Marchal Goering, Hitler's bloated second-in-command, was a spy in England in 1014.
In April, 1914, he came to, the village of South Luffenham,' ‚ Oak- ham, Rutland, in the guise of a student of the English language.
Hts tutor was the Rev. 3. F. Richards, the rector, now at Three- cornered Standley, Amersham, Bucks.
Tall and hollow-chocked, vastly different from the swaggering. fat man of to-day, Goering could speak English with the Suency of a nalive,
But he made sure that he spoke it brokenly when in company.
At times, when he thought he was alone, however, Goering, the spy, spoke to the rectory ent in, perfect English.
Öften on these occasons he was overheard, by Mrs. Beasley who was in rervice at the rectory,

Mrs. Beasley, who still lives in the village, says: "Goerng often went cycling with the Rector's son. Habi- tually he would lose himself in big towns and return the following day,
"Ia left the country hurriedly an July 28, 1914, seven days before the declaration of war.
With the rise of Hiller, he became a striking personally in the new "Third Reich."
He entabilshod in Prussia a secret police force, and as its head became the most feared man in Germany, When he became German Air Mini- ster-a post he still holds Goering set himself the task of building up à vast Oghting machine.

Afterwards Hitler called together Germany's Alr chiefs: Goring and Generali Milch, Rudel and Stumpit.
Possimistic Air Chiefs
He asked them bluntly if they could guarantee that enemy planes ap- pronching Central and Southern Ger many could be held off by some kind of barrage. None of the experts dared to answer in the affirmative,
On the contrary, they showed pessimism, and Hitler turned his back on them without another word,
It is therefore, reasonable to sup- pose that the die will soon be cast. Without Italian or Russian support, at least effective support; without the reinforcement of 150,000 recruits called for by military experts, Hitler seems likely to stake all on a great offensive before the end of the year. But the supreme decision will not be taken until to-day, when the General Staff meets again.
Well-informed circles. however, think that at the last minute Hitler will take heed of the advice about the Insufficiency of his troops, and decide on a waiting polley.
More Peace Offers ? Formerly Mussolini used to make all kinds of diplomatic and strategical sacrifices to the Fuhrer in the hope of obtaining "Germany's unconditional support in the Spanish war."
