"In itself it is another example of the calluus German brutailty at sen egardless of who is the victim of the moment; but if it had been specially designed to demonstrate to France that she must expect from her con queror neither good faith nor justice but only contempt and carelessness of what happens to her sons, it could hardly have been planned otherwise. "There could be no more con- vincing demonstration of the evil ngainst which we night or of the need to continue the struggle without cense until it is conquered."
Nazis Latest Infimy
The "Daily Telegraph" describes the petion as "Germany's latest Infamy in its campaign of Indis criminate murder at sea" and adds: "French soldiers abroad are threaten- ed by the Nazis with the persecution their families if they remain to continue the fight, yet when they attempt to return home they find themselves sunit at sight on the high

Stronger Before Blitzkrieg
By GEORGE THOMAS
BRITAIN'S Air Force is to-day stronger than ever, despite the great part it has played in the recent battles and the losses it has suffered.
The American Ambassador to France, William C. Bullitt, is hated by the Nazis for his outspoken comments over re- cent years. He is remaining

"The aircraft available of every type now in use exceeds the mum- ber of machines at the disposal of the Air Force when the battle broke out."
Lord Beaverbrook added that, in addition to production, repairs had replenished stocks.
There was on hand a very good surplus stock of engines.
The Minister pald tribute to all who had contributed to this result.
"The public," he said, "should give thanks for this immense effort to all the aircraft factories and engine shops, and to their workers, who have striven by night and day, without time of for recreation, without any regard for the plea sures and amenities of life.
"Their conduct is beyond praise. "We can place our future in their keeping with confidence."
