LONDON. Nov. 25.-Invasion by the allies is feared by Germany, according to an Evening News Copenhagen dhs patch. Extensive preparations are be ing made to guard against such an eventuality.
 The News says it has learned from eye witnesses that Germany is strength ening old fortresses in the former Dan ish territory of SchlesWig Holstcin and also a line of entrenchments called Dannework along the northern side of the KieI Canal It is hoped to protect the canal against attacks from tine north, where it is most feared.
 All German islands in the North Sea are now closely guarded, strongly for tified positions being erected on the coast of Hostein and along the western side of the River Elbe.

It will doubt less be heavy one backed by all the men and guns together with all the other war machines of which the Ger mans seem to have an unlimited sup ply. The allies have made every pre- paration to meet this assault. At the same time prepara tions are completed for the defense of the east coast of England for the opinion is prevalent that if the Germans fail in their latest plans they will attempt q raid on Eng land with warships and transports for which submarines are preparing the way.
