the winds swept the Spanish ships
away from the enemy and squall
separated the fleet.
The Spanish had no such chance
again, and the enemy ships were
able to get between them and the
English Channel, blocking an inva-
sion of the southern coasts and bar
ring a southern route back to Spain.
Prudence dictated that the Spanish
fleet returned by way of the route be-
tween the north of Scotland and Nor
way, and this they took without be-
ing followed by the English.
Weather again favored the British
A succession of gales of extraordinary
violence descended upon the coasts of
Scotland. Spanish ship after ship
was driven ashore or sunk. Half of
the vessels that started on the in
vasion of England never returned to
Spain. Britain naval power was
made predominant. The failure sent
Spain into a decline from which it
never recovered. After July, 1888,
Britain turned to colonization and
conquest in the New World.

The furore stirred in Parliament by
revelations of Winston Churchills
son-in-law, Duncan Sandys, concern
ing the neglected state of air defenses
in the British Isles, indicates the isles
are more in danger of invasion to-
day than they have been for $50 years.
For those three and half CEN
turtles, the British Isles have been al
most the only European soil to have
security. Now the medieval dungeons
OF castles are transformed into bomb
cellars, old and young are equipped
with gas masks government bureaus
have plans for abandonment of Lon

Britons nervously await the day.

a foot of British homeland soil, be-

of the Spanish Armada. Exactly $50
years ago today the Armada, fleet
of 1872 vessels, carrying 81, 621 soldiers
and 8066 sailors, sailed toward its
destruction. It had left Lisbon on
May TO- when Philip II had tired at
last of the British piracy that had
robbed Spain of it's rich cargoes from
the Americans. On June Goth, the
Armada appeared off the Lizard. Next
day it passed Plymouth and came in
contact with the English fleet under
Lord High Admiral Howard of Eff
fingham, to whom Sir Francis Drake
was subordinate.
The british had 1877 vessels with
total crews of 10000 Their guns
were fewer, but their gunnery was
better. Everything considered, the
fleets were about equal.
Weather interviewed to give the
English the advantage. But for a
shift of wind off the Isle of Wight.
the English fleet might have been
destroyed and the whole history of
the Western world changed. The
Spanish ships were close enough to
the defending vessels for them to be
boarded, and the English were in
