These people said that Hitler should not always have the start and cited as an example of what could happen if the British took the initiative, the case of Iraq. The Britâ€" ish entered Iraq and saved what could have developed into a dangerous situaâ€", tion.

It was announced last night that the British are withdrawing from the Battle of Crete and have given up the battle as hopeless. The evacuation is continuing satisfactorily and heavy losses are being inflicted on the Gerâ€" man and Italian forces.
