XXXIX — No. 9 Mr. Churchill’s Confidence (Editorial from the New York Times February 10th, 1941). % Not since the terrible days when he became Prime Minister, has any speech of Winston Churchill breathed as high @ spirit of confidence as the radio talk that was broadcast yesterday to the Emelish-speaking world.

He was able to cite not only yesterday’s naval attack on the Italian mainland itself at but what was even more imp- onstrates that they have fully retained the qualitative ority of their fighting planes. But while Mr. Churchill took satis- faction in all this, while he confessed that he was even “entertained” by Mussolini's pHght, while he took par- donable relish in reciting the short Butter.
