Show Eerlin's Foolish Threat Evidently the aerial offensive is hurting Germany more than some people thmK. This seems clear from the "Huns of the air" epithet hurled at British and A-merican A-merican aviators Dy Nazi Propaganda Propa-ganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels. The threat of the Berlin radio that military courts will deal with Anglo-American prisoners "who are guilty of a serious breach of international law" indicates in-dicates some cracking of German Ger-man morale. While it is extremely improbable improb-able that the Germans will invite in-vite retaliation there is always the possibility that the Nazis will take vengeance upon those within with-in their power. If, unfortunately, the Germans adopt the Japanese conseption of aviators, and execute American and British fliers, it will be up to the United Nations to exact a terrible penalty. We prefer not to think of such a scourge but, if it becomes necessary, we should not hesitate. |
