No QUESTION OF PURSUIT.

from the German squadron and beyond
the reach OF their guns There was no
question OF pursuit OF the German
ships. because the high speed OF the
British vessels would have enabled
them 10 catch mp with and destroy tho
German cruisers
This time il is possible TO verify
the British reports. which Ii was i'm
possible to do in the case of the battle
off the Falkland Islands, Of which de
tails are lacking. We only know that
several British ships are now docking
ut Gibraltar TO repair damages inflicted
by the German cruisers Scharnhorst
and Gneiseuau, and that. therefore. the
British official report OH the battle
off the Falkland Islands AT least is in
complete and colorcd with British in

The unrelahilty OF the reports Of
