whole war" was the German at
tempt to win mastery of the air
over Britain to attempt an inva-
sion by hundreds of self-propelled
barges moving down the coast of
Europe and by other forces con-
centrated from France to Norway.
In fighting speech directed to
the British people during mo-
mentary lull in mass Nazi air at
tackS, the prime minister said that
their bravery and courage had
aroused worldwide admiration and
that British war strength was great
er now than it was in July.

down at ratio of three to one
and pilots at ratio of six to one,
which if the conflict continues at
the present pace will ruin" vital
part of Aoldf Hitler's great air

But, the prime minister warned,
the Germans are making huge prep
arationS for invasion and the peo-
pie must expect thrust from
France, from the Low Countries,
from Norway or by way of Ire
land-or by all ways at once-at
any time.
Churchill called Nazi lombard
ment of London and other cities
an "indiscriminate slaughter" but
said it had and would fail to break
the British spirit of resistance.

as a very important week for US
the most important in our history
the prime minister said. eff this
invasion is going to be tried at all

long delayed"
That, he said, is the reason for
the German mass air attacks, dir
ected largely at the Raj bases, in
an effort to win mastery of the
skies before launching an attempt
ed invasion.
England, Scotland or Ireland must
be fully prepared to meet the NaZi
invasion by concentrations of men
and ships along the German, Dutch,
Belgian, French and Norwegian
coasts, Churchill said.

pare himself to do his duty" he

Water extended from curb to curb
on many Ell Centre streets includ-

worked all forenoon long clearing
water from the downtown area and
by mid-afternoon appeared to have
the situation well under control.
The newly cleaned odd sewer

through two catch basins and an
open manhole at Fourth and Com

The active sewer line was also
used wherever feasible. Another
manhole at Fourth and Commercial
poured water into this line as well
as openings at Eighth and Adams

A fire department pump was call

Another pump operated at Fifth
