Although the daylight attack
must have come as a stunning
surprise to Goering and Germany
Hitler may have had one of his
flashes of intuition that such a
raid might he made, for he alb

since his seizure of power 10 years
ago.
Except for charging that Russia

and predicting eventual German
victory, Goering's speech was no

He passed on an edict

There Is no end TO the variations
which crop up these days on the

"Greotest Menace"

Hitler portrayed the Nazi Party
as the divinely chosen leader of a
crusade. He said the development
of Nazism was the expression of
the will of Providence TO afford
the German people and beyond
them the whole Of Europe the
possibility of successfully weather
ing the greatest menace of all
time"
Inferentially acknowledging that
Germany has suffered privations
from the effects OF her recent
battlefront reverSeS. Hitler warned
that these will seem "as nothing
in comparison with what il would
be If the barbarianS sweep across
Europe"
He compared what he called the
Bolshevik danger 10 that OF the
huns who once ragged across tho
continent.
After GoebbelS had declared

that he pledged his word and gave
his assurance that in any case
enemy planes would never reach
Berlin.
The climactic manner in which
these words were thrown back in
his teeth by British bombs on
the first occasion he has ever
spoken for the fuehrer on what
is supposed to be the biggest ami
versary celebration in the NaZi
year book far overshadowed the
text OF his talk.
He freely admitted heavy Ger
man losses but charged Soviet
Russia with hiding its own. He
promised n new German offensive
in the spring with fresh troops
and new weapons and insisted that
the Bolsheviks' would be dealt
with in good time.

Hitler.
The British raid was beautifully
timed The Nazi radio had just
Opened its international channel,
and the usual martial music pre-

But shortly after the fanfare OF
music began and as the hands of
the clock reached IL, listeners
heard an explosion, muffled shouts
and the sounds of crowd noises in
the distance.
Goering had taken his place in
the ceremonial hall Of the air min
iStry building, but when the Brit
ish planes so unexpectedly came
over. he and his Nazi minions and
favored ones in the audience ap-
parently made a dash for the
