LINDBERGH IMPRESSED.
GERMAN AIR STRENGTH. LONDON, Oct. 13. The activities in Europe of Colonel Lindbergh, trans-Atlantic flier, were indirectly referred to during the Czech crisis debate in the House of Commons. Miss Elen Wilkinson (Labour) criticised influential English men and women for having told Germans that England would never fight for Czechoslovakia. She added: —“It is a very serious thing when a prominent American airman lunched with these people and assured them it was impossible for Britain to do anything. “He assured them that the German Air Force was better than the Russian, British and French combined. That was the defeatest attitude behind the scenes.”
