GERMANY’S VULNERABILITY
“A few weeks before Hitler invaded Poland I was talking to a leading German industrialist, one of the big men in Goering’s great steel combine in Hermann Goering's Werke._ We were discussing the probabilities and possibilities of a war which, as we both realised then. Hitler was dteter-. mined to wage,” said Mr Leonax-d Ingrams in a recent broadcast talk. “ This man expressed his opinion in a short sentence: ‘We shall bomb your industries.’ he said. ‘ and you will bomb ours, and after that you will still be able to buy from overseas, so that I have been trying to tell them,’ he said meaning the German Government, ’ that Germany can never win in the end. though I expect we shall begin, as we did the last time, with victory after victory, before we collapse.' ”
