LONDON, Sept. &c. (UP)
The view of expert neutral
observers in London, after
nearly four weeks of war,
is that Adolf Hitler cannot
win a long war and Great Britain
and France can not win a short

The French and British conf
fently expect to win the war but
they believe victory may be pre-
cipitated by the crackup of the
German home front and not neces-
sarily by an overwhelming victory
in the field
without claiming inside informa-
tion of Allied plans 1T seems that
the tactics and strategy of the
French and British at this time
may be defined as pointed toward a
war which will surely If slowly
force Germany to capitulation.

He said friendly discussions are

the economic war without arousing
antagonism against the allied pow

presents to the neutral countries.
