PULLEN Managing-Editor Member of Audit Bureau of Circulations MEMBER OP THE CANADIAN I'KF.SS DEFEATING ITSELF The German eampaign of lies is defeating the end it is seeking to reach. The propagandists are proving themselves to be liars of the first water. When they began to tell of Nazi victories, many people believed them.. As time! went on and the size of the falsehoods increased, people began to doubt but when the sum total of the Germain sinkings became as great as the whole British navy it was-' quite evident that something was wrong. Recently the British .government issued a statement snowing that the Germans -claimed to have sunk thirty capital ships since; the outbreak of the war, a number twice the number in the British navy at the time of the invasion of Poland. In the first four months of the war alone Germany claimed to have destroyed five more capital ships and fifteen more cruisers than Britain possessed when war broke out. The Germans claim that since the invasion of Norway they have sunk 20 capital ships, eight aircraft carriers, 77 cruisers, 78 destroyers and 44 submarines, a&well as an astronomical number of smaller craft. In all campaigns up to July 1, the Germans admit only 39,420 killed. - Official casualty lists from Berlin mention Another Class For Soap Box Derby Shortly In response to popular demand there will be a new division open for competition in the Qyro Play grounds Second Annual Soap Box Dau Demy wnicn taices place on August 15, Besides the event for home- Baseball Scores National League Brooklyn 6, New York 0 (only game).

While there is undoubtedly some minimizing of losse. in the Berlin announcements, independent observers credit Germany with .having won great land areas with very little Joss of life. Hanson W. .Baldwin, military exnert for the New York Times, doubts whether the total German casualities were double the number admitted in Berlin.

Contrary to predictions, the casualties of modern war seem to be lighter than had been expected. The estimated f v AAA 1 n n n n r : 1 zuu.uuu to 3U(J,uuu dead on land, sea and air in all cam- paigns and by all countries in the first ten months of the war are few Indeed .compared to the 8,500,000 dead in four years of the World War. Total casualties of each nation, including killed, wounded, prisoners and missing, are estimated bv Baldwin as follows: Germany 243,000; France 1,988,000; Britain 9QV000; Italy 4,500; Poland 620,000; Netherlands 331,-000; Belgium .545,000; Norway 59,000; Russia 221,000; Finland 70.000; Rumania 2,600. The French, Netherlands, Belgian and Norwegian losses consisted mainly of prison-, ers, most of which are in German prison camps or released by the Germans on parole. Britain, looked upon rightly as the foremost contestant in Germany !s war, has suffered hardly at all. Deaths up to July 1 were as follows: from 4,000 to 9,000 on the Western Front up to May 10; l,800,in Norway; from 2,500 to 10,000 on the Western Front, including Dunkerque, between May 10 and July 1; from, 200 to 500 against Italy in , North and East Africa; 100 civilian air raid deaths. Britain's turn is yet to come, we may suppose. But Britain has a long way to go before she suffers as heavily j as did fher -former allies. She will have to lose 22 times as, many men before she equals France's record, seven times, as many before she is' even with Poland, six times as many, before her losses are as heavy as Belgium's and four times as many before she draws abreast of the Netherlands. ! These comparisons, too, fail to take into account the difference in population of the nations mentioned. Big Bri-J tain will have io lose tmillions before she can say she has' felt the Nazi blitzkrieg to the same extent as the nations which have been overrun.
