United States authorities who said privately last month that the odds were even or slightly favored Brit- ain are tmlvilling yet to shorten them.

Geography, numbers and svevcral other factors make it impossible for the time being for British bomb- ers to inflict. the damage that crowded England suitors, but it is certain that their blows are harder than Berlin will acknlnvlcdrzc.

Whereas the cables are crowded with eyewitness descriptions of the havoc wrought on London. the rc- sults oi’ u three-hour raid on Haml- bur are limited to the characteris- tic erse admission in the Gvrlnan communique of "small" dnnlauc

Optimism with regard to the R. A. F‘. is based likewise on indications "Wt the first reinforcements of y nfs are forthcoming from the

Britons, in contemplating the im- mediate outlook for London. have need of the stolid detcrnlinattnn for which John Bull ls known Madrid and Chungking shmved, however. how a determined urban people can withstand punishment.

As long as the RAJ“. remains in action. as long as the 1,000 or more anti-aircraft guns protecting the metropolitan area keep firing and the balloon barrages remain aloft, London is a lcng way from Ill-.- fsic of helpless Rotterdam. War- saw and Barcelona.
