Show NEWS MAN TELLS ! EFFECT OF SCATTERING NAVY John T. Whitaker, Chicago News correspondent, writing from Portugal, Por-tugal, asserts that American naval intervention now would strike a telling blow and "block three major ma-jor German offensives now being developed." Mr. Whitaker points out that British sea-power is being spread thinner than ever before, "so thin that somewhere, according to German Ger-man strategy, it will break." Says Mr. Whitaker, "You can spread almost anything too thin, even the sleepless heroism of the British navy, which while it fights the battle of the Atlantic, must also fight battles in Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, France and Spain." |
