NAZI STOCKS FALLING.
The legend of German invincibility has gone. Belief is growing that Britain has at any rate a sporting chance of victory, writes Mr W. N. Ewer, diplomatic correspondent of the “Daily Herald.” As in the occupied countries, so among the neutrals. German prestige is still tremendous. And every Government whose frontiers can be reached by land from the Reich is going to walk very warily and give no cause for offence in Berlin. But for all that, none of them—neither the Russians, nor the Balkan States, nor the Spaniards, nor the Swedes, nor the Swiss—are anything like so sure to-day that the Gei’mans are winning hands down. No neutral government in Europe, let me repeat, is going to do anything risky. From Madrid to Moscow, the policy is one of apineasing Hitler. But it is one of negative appeasement rather than'of active co-operation.*
