the army nor the air force was in a condi-

Commons and solemnly announced that
Britain had forged in her new air force an
arm that must strike terror in the hearts

Chamberlain had reached point where he
was choosing his advisers from those who
would tell him what he himself believed or
wanted to hear. Chief among these was

beyond all proportion to his position or

behind in its competition with other lines.
At the conclusion Of one flight to Berlin,
German employees at the Tempelhof Field
tied an old broom and lantern to the tail
Of an Imperial Anyways plane as a mark Of
Teutonic contempt.
Ribbentrop hurried back to Berlin with a
tale for his masters ears. :. The English
would not fight. The English could not

were decadent . They were through.
