HITLER’S ATTEMPT TO HEARTEN GERMANS
LONDON, October 12.
Mr Arthur Greenwood, Minister without portfolio in the British Cabinet, making a speech at Blackburn, said: “A few days ago Hitler made a speech to the German people. It could not have been intended to impress us or our allies—its object was to put new heart into his subjects who face under grim conditions a third year of As a conqueror who has laid waste and brought under his rule country after country his tone was sombre and subdued; he knows the tremendous losses the Germans have sustained. He is at great pains to prevent them from becoming known to the German people because he feels sure of the action it would produce, but we cannot close our eyes to the weight of Hitler’s new attack.
“Hitler will not beat Russia, but he will seriously cripple himself in the effort,” Mr Greenwood declared. The danger to Russia, he concluded, had stimulated production in Britain and in the United States.
