Means Naval Action.
It has many times been sug-
gested in London that air raids
over England had a more cunning
motive than destruction Of prop
erty; that reconnaissance was the
prime object; that Photographic
records have been made of the de-
lenses of London and all the area
likely to be invaded.
OF course an attempted inva-
sion would mean an appalling
naval action. The British fleet
remains therefore the crux Of the
situation, the backbone, as always,
of the whole war.
But the kaiser's hands are more
free for a naval contest than ever
before. The Russian fleet cannot
now embarrass him in the rear If
his high seas" fleet should really
attempt to sail toward Britain.
American Fleet Ready.
It is possible the drive to Ca
lais might be the first step in any
attempted invasion.
Then, with three routes to Eng
land open, some critics say the
actual transportation of troops
might be from behind Heligoland,
from Belgium, or from France.
There might be>a powerful diver
sion attempted from one OF these
points in order to engage the
British grand fleet in action far
from tho point of actual crossing. |
The American navy would of
course be called into action be-
side the British, ad 1t would be
the kaiser's job to put both out
of action.
