GERMAN CASUALTIES.
NEVER PREVIOUSLY 1 ENDURED. CANNOT BE CONCEALED. (United Press Association —Copyright.) (Rec. 1.40 p.m.) LONDON, July 20. Mr John Gordon, writing in the “Sunday Express,” says that such casualties as the Germans are suffering in Russia cannot be concealed. If it is true that there is.one German dead for every two wounded then Germany has never previously endured such a blood bath. There is a point at which the cleverest propaganda fails and the German people may soon reach that point. Hitler needs a dramatic success. All his conquests will go for nought unless he can place them on a solid foundation. For a nation that, according to Hitler, had its air force, obliterated in the first week of war and its armies disintegrated in the second and its reserves consumed iti the fourth, the Russians seem to be doing rather well.
