BRITISH RESILIENCE RECOVERY IN ARMS DEFYING NAZI MIGHT (Elec. Tel. Copyright—United Press Absii.) (British Official Wireless.) Heed. noon. RUGBY, Aug. 12. Stressing Germany’s failure to overcome Britain by bombing a writer in the Soviet paper Pravda states: “In the course of the war unprepared England has created an enormous military machine of more than 4,000,000 men. The remorseless bombing of London and other cities, calculated to terrorise the population, had preciselyopposite results, while the world sees every reason to expect very soon even more important and more successful blows against Germany by the British air force, which will, at the same time, be capable of supporting land operations against the Reich. “Furthermore the British Navy and merchant fleet have proved capable of ensuring a constant supply of oil and war materials to England, as well as to her armies in Africa and Asia, while the German Navy has been .chased from the surface of all the 'world's oceans.” /
