LONDON, Aug. 26 (Reuter).—A sharp attack on Switzerland for the way the Swiss Press is covering the air warfare appears in the German paper, "Voelkischer Beobachter," which, according to the Bremen radio, objects to a despatch from London minimising the damage done by German air raids.
The "Beobachter" declares that the publication of such stories by the Swin Press might well prove a danger to their own country.
