WHERE IS THE GERMAN AIR FORCE?

London, To-day. THE QUESTION ON MANY LIPS to-day is: how much eco- nomic help can Russia give Germany? An article in the “Economist” points out that the whole of Russia's exports are less than 20 per cent, of Germany's normal needs, so that if Russia sent everything to Germany, this would still be less than one-fifth of Germany's require- ments.

It could only make up a small part of the trade Germany has lost through the Allied blockade. With regard to German help to Russia, the paper says that a great many German technical experts used to work in Russia but to-day Germany needs her experts for home pro- duction and cannot spare a large number.

German machinery, too, is needed at home and the recent Leipzig Fair showed foreign buyers that little is being produced in Germany to-day except armaments;

Germany cannot give badly needed help to Russia's railways, for the Reich has its own problems, especial- ly in Poland.

Sobering Effect

"Where is the German Air Force?" asks the "Spectator.”

Why has it not been given a chapice to perform some of the marvellous feats claimed for it on paper? Why does the German High Command sink battleship after battleship on and not in fact?
