Samples of leaflets prepared by the Allies and printed in German for distribution over the German lines,have been received in Christchurch from Major J. A. Bretherton.» Accompanying the leaflets is an English translation, the caption being, "He who rides the tiger cannot dismount." The German southern front, states the leaflet, is in the position of the hapless rider. Holding means taking enormous losses. Advancing is out of the question, but retreat .spells losses just as grave. Another leaflet is a German original of comment the Allies made m\ Marshal Kcsselring's pessimistic address to his H.Q. troops, -in which h* said that the war would end in 1944 " one way or the other."
