miles, became an international zone.
Many think the outcome will be,
Spain Will have Gibraltar, France
will have Tangier, and England will
have Ceuta.
Experts claim that submarines
could get through the Strait of Glib
raltar if they wished and that hos
tile air force could probably capture
this stronghold, whatever country
owned it. Be that as it may, Gibral-
tar is an interesting place. The rock,
shaped like a lion, three miles long,
three -fourths Of mile wide and 1889
feet high, is the very emblem OF
strength. The strait connecting the
Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterrane-
an Sea and Spain from Morocco. is
about 36 miles long and varies in
western entrance to 13 miles at the
eastern entrance. From its STRAIT
egical position it has long been called
the key Of the Mediterranean" The
ancient Phoenicians and Greeks loved
to tell marvellous stories about the
pillars Of Hercules" which were
supposed to mark the erd OF the

is SPAIN TO OWN GIBRALTAR?

What does 1t signify that Great
Britain has issued orders that British
guns are no longer to be fired from
Giberalter at sunrise and sunset, a
custom followed ever since Admiral
Sir George Rook took this famous
rock in 1904 for British possession?
Some Of the English say this is done
for the sake Of economy; others make
the remark that when the British
squadron goes out to practice, It uses
as much ammunition in one morning
as would last the Giberalter guns for
O year.
1t undoubtedly is fact that this
stronghold is an expense to Great
Britain. To quote figures, it has cost
her 335, 900 pounds a year, although
the British policemen there are
obliged to wear very shabby looking
uniforms.
Another circumstance Of interest is,
the Spanish government now has all
correspondence from Spain to Glib
raltar stamped as If Gibraltar were
a part of Spain and not the posses
sion Of a foreign country. as it has
formerly been regarded. AS far as
postage is concerned, it is a Spanish
possession and not an English pos
session as formerly.
The shipping t. de at Gibraltar is
not large at present and it is also
decreasing. Reports state that there
Is very little Spanish shipping and
that many lines of steamers that
used TO touch there no longer do So
One reason for this is, coal at Gibral-
tar is very expensive. for France is
shipping her extra coal 10 Oran and
Algiers to be sold.
Not long ago Great Britain had
large squadron at Gibraltar for sew
eral weeks and In elaborate
naval displays. Slight repairs were
made in the docks = one or two bat
tleships. One authority said that this
was done by Great Britain to give the
impression that she needed Gibraltar.
1t has been suggested that Great
Britain would exchange Gibraltar
for Ceuta. seaport town in Morocco,
Africa, opposite Gibraltar. Ceuta is
the chief port of admission into the
Morocco zone, and as such. is de-
sirable possession OF Spain. There
may be wheels within wheels"
France has looked wi.r a longing eye
towards possessing the whole OF the
North African coast. France does
not care II Spain owns Ceuta, but she
does not want En- to own 1t. In
respect to France and northwest At
rica, England may think Ceuta a
more valuable possession than Glib
raltar.
The Tangier question is not yet set.

port on the coast of Morocco an in
