our own danger MAJ. u fieioihs L"o''
if Britain goes down, but a COM
plete change of attitude toward the
war itself. From Nationwide de-
termination to avoid involvement
at almost any cost we have come to
an equally widespread resolve to aid
Britain with everything we can
give, and the qualifying phrase
short of war" Is beginning to fade
from sight as the Nation realizes
the possible nature Of the struggle
which may lie ahead.
With France defeated the war is
rapidly becoming struggle between
Germany, more or less dominating
an uneasy. restless and in some
cases rebellious Europe on the one
hand and the English-speaklng ma
tions on the other, with Russia and
Japan on the sidelineS in attitudes
of watchful waiting. The stake is
nothing less than the domination
Of the world.
The crucial struggle of the mo-
ment is the battle of Britain. This,
as previously pointed out, really re-
solves itself into three battles: Pro-
duction, in which the participation
of the United States is Just begin
ming to reach effective levels: trans
portation, in which we shall prob
ably participate this year to a
greater degree than heretofore. and
the battle of combat, in which We
hope to avoid direct participation.

come of the latter battle, which is

any intensity because of the need
of material preparation. is dependent
on the other two, which are con-
stantly in progress.
Invasion Fate Is Crux.
While the island of Great Britain
remains firmly in British hands
Germany is denied direct access to
the Atlantic Ocean, and the block
ade can be maintained. Germany is
seeking by counterblockade and air
attacks to reduce the fighting power
of Britain to an extent permitting a
direct assault upon the island. If
she succeeds in this attempt, the
first phase of her campaign of world
conquest will have ended in victory
If she makes the attempt and fails
the rise of the American production
curve will begin to tip the scale of
the battle of production against
Germany, and thereafter the pres

The storm, on the heels of a heavy

which is about IL miles northwest Of
Nacogdoches. 1t skirted Douglass
and skipped northward about IL
miles, demoiishing the 9-year-old
gymnasium at Nat and damaging
homes.
Edgar Whitaker, his wife and s.

sure Of sea power will be increas-
ingly felt. 1t is probable that Ger
many must win the battle of Britain
during the first six months Of 194l
or abandon hope Of winning it.
In the Mediterranean, Italy has
been defeated at sea, and in conse-
quence OF her loss of control of her
maritime communications, finds
herself closely blocked, while in AL
bania and Africa her overseas
armies, from which so much was ex-
pected, have been beaten by the
Greeks and British, respectively.
For Germany's chief ally, the COM
ing year presents vista of despair.
Her African empire is tottering to-
ward utter collapse. Her war effort
as a whole cannot much longer be
maintained under the privations of
blockade. Italy's choice appears to
be one between submission to Brit
ain or submission to German DOM
nation.
Germany's attitude toward Italy's
troubles remains in doubt. Strict
adherence to the venerable princi-
Piles OF concentration and the OBJ
jective would suggest that Germany
should continue her preparations
for all-out attack on Britain with
out permitting forces and materials
to be diverted to the Mediterranean
whatever happens to Italy. But
moral and political considerations
may enter into the picture. Should
Germany decide to act in the Med
iterranean, she has three courses
open to her, courses mapped out by
the geography of the continent of
Europe from which three peninsulas
drop down to the Mediterranean
the Balkan Peninsula, Italy itself
and the Iberian Peninsula.
Must Choose Land Route.
BY one Of these routes Germany
must move, since her chief power
lies in her army and her land-based
air force. She cannot act by sea,
since she has no navy of conse-
Quence other than her submarine
force.
The last few days of 1910 have
seen some German military activity
in Rumania and Hungary, but there
remain grave doubts as to whether
the German staff will enter a win
ter campaign in the Balkans, with
all its uncertainties and possible de-
lays, its bad communications and
difficult terrain.
German troops also are reported
IN Italy, where Germany may seek
to take over control. But this might
bring about a fierce Italian revul-
sion of feeling against Germany
Spain seems the most likely theater
for German action, since here the
resistance will be negligible, at least
at first. and there would be a chanc,
of neutralizing Gibraltar, on which
all British naval operations in the
Western Mediterranean are de-
pendent.
1t should be emphasized that, on
the one hand, the war will not be
lost or won In the Mediterranean
except as that theater affects the
battle Of Britain; but, on the other
hand, If Germany allows herself to

MAD CATS

Anyone wanting a one-way
ticket to Jail stands a fair
chance of being obliged these
days by almost any uniformed
Wilmington policeman simply
by approaching the blind side
of the law and emitting an
audible meow"
Really, the police depart
ment is quite sensitive about
Cats! And not altogether
without cause, either.
When, Friday, the police ap-
pealed to residents in the
neighborhood of Sixth and
Church street, to call headquar-
tiers to dispose of cats fire.
~quenting that vicinity, no one
believed that every cat-hater
in New Hanover county would
avail himself of the offer. The
determination of cats in the
Sixth and Church neighborhood
was ordered by city-county
health officers after a mad cat
slain there was found to have
been infected with rabies.
Yesterday, vows Coy Ethe-
ridge, desk sergeant, calls
came from cat alarm1sts-
everywhere but in the neigh
borhood of Sixth and Church
streets. There were calls from
as far distant as five miles
from the neighborhood Of
doomed felines.
The police are willing to CO.
operate with the health depart
ment, Sergeant Etheridge said,
but he fears the law enforce
ment department will have to
draw the line about cat hunt
ing in Forest Hills (where one
call originated) and other like
distant areas.
And the sergeant wasn't be-
ing catty about it, either.
