COMMENT ON THE WAR
AN OUTSPOKEN NEWSPAPER. LONDON, March 3. The “Daily 'Express,” in the most outspoken lender for many months, Says: “Britain, which, wants ultimate victory without facing details or preparing for breakdowns, doesn’t know her job. Nine convoys of Empire war supplies went to Singapore, a gift for the Japanese. We also got no value from the arms piled into Libya, where we were superior in the air. Britain and America constitute the greatest war potential the world has ever seen. The Japanese get the maximum results from moderate while we get moderate results from the finest material ever put into battle. We have pressing need of weapons, but equally pressing need of men who can handle theta and think in terms of them. We must put “ battlecraft ’ at the top of our requirements.”
