challenger's side. Nothing has hap
pened as far as we can judge from
available information to indicate a
genuine break through Of British de-
fensive lines. Not until Hitler's air
power begins to inflict serious dam
age in the interior of England In
daylight raids with relative immun-
ity will there be justification for
the sort of alarm now noticeable
in some quarters.
Blitzkrieg Is Misnomer
Blitzkrieg seems to me decidedly
a misnomer for what is now under
way. BY analogy with the previous
lightning-wars it implies three
decker onslaught, with mechanical
forces moving concertedly by land,
air and sea. This is not now TAX
ing place and may never take place.
Instead we have a major battle in
a single element, the air.
Siege Is a more accurate and help
full description. The British Isles
is in sense a fortress. With walls
Of air power around it and the at
tackers hurting their might against
them in hopes of a fatal break
through.
AS in nearly every great siege, the
beleaguered forces are far outnum-
bered. AS in most other sieges the
defenders are hard-presseo, over
worked, in continuous danger of ex-
haustion Of supplies and man-power
and, most important, in a moral
crack-up under the strain.
A quick change in weather, such
as a few days Of fog, would be a
God-send to the British. 1t would
enable them to repair their ma
chimes and rest their men, who are
obviously obliged to operate at a
killing pace to make up for the
enemy's numerical superiority.

British Air Battlers
Meet Massed Germans
CONTINUED From Page u

Smaller German raids were made
on the northeast coast and some
German planes were spotted in the
southwest.
The new attacks came as excite
ment was subsiding over possibility
that German parachutists had been
dropped in Britain. Careful search
Of the country had failed to dis
close any of the parachutists despite
discovery of many opened para
chuteS.
Empty Parachutes
Belief grew that German planes
had dropped a lot of empty para
chutes in the hope that they might
terrorize the populace and demoral-
lie the British defense system.
For many hours, no bombs were
dropped on the British Isles and
no German planes were seen.
One German plane, apparently
downed by machine gun fire, CRASH
ed In northeast Scotland and an
other plunged into the sea, from
some unknown cause, of the east
Scots coast.
But the blitzkrieg had slowed and
military sources, asked If any para
chute troops had been captured in
the last AZ hours, said they had no
knowledge Of any such captures.

If Great Britain should lose, 1t
will in effect have lost the war.
Whether the victors then decide to
Invade" the islands. or prefer to
lay it waste Systematically from the
air, win be a matter of detail, with
out essential military significance.
The reason that the world has not
fully understood this is because it is
not accustomed to an air battle,
pure and simple, the first one in
history of war making. Old-style
military and naval men are unable
to assimilate the startling fact that
land and sea forces have become
mere onlookers in a fateful engage
ment that started In the air, de-
velops on an ever large scale in
the air, and is likely to be fought
to a decision in the air.
Those who have failed to adjust
their tactical thinking to the re-
alities of 1910 take it for granted
that the old pattern of battle will
be followed. .
All Air Fight, Reality
But soon it should become appar-
ent that something unique its trans
piring, the classics Affair battle
foreseen by a few Of the more i'm
aginative tacticians, has become
a fact. When the question of mas
terry of the skies over the British
Isles and their sea approaches is
definitely answered the other ques-
tons remaining to be answered with
the aid of armies and navies will be
minor by contrast.
There seems to me as yet no
ground for panic on the part Of
England's friends. The air often
sive is developing as expected, with
heavy numerical advantage on the

versing a previous opinion. selec-
tive service officials stated today
that married men would not be de-
ferred automatically as a class from
compulsory training.
While it was expected that most
fathers and husbands would be
deferred, the deferment decisions
must be made by local draft boards
on the merits of each individual
case. they said.
The question of dependency will
not be assumed, and the boards
have wide latitude in determining
whether wives, relatives or wards
actually are dependent upon the
earned income OF a man claiming
deferment.
