carries Of more of the same kind
to come
Italy has her long boot leg of an
exposed coastline with many targets
for naval guns in railroads and fac

Ostend Shelled.
At the same time British naval
ships ran in and out to shell Ger
man-held Ostend, Belgium. They
keep up the same tactics on the in
vasion ports of France with the in
vitation: Come out to sea with
your invasion flotilla. We are ready

Within the same "a hours Of the
bombardment of Ostend a British
air armada flies over Hanover, in
cendiary bombs lighting the targets
for explosive bombs.
How will the Hannoverians take
that sort of reprisal? Far from as
we'll as the British have taken
bombings if the response of the Ber-
liners to previous British air raids
are any criterion.
Should Great Britain declare war
on Rumania, after breaking off
diplomatic relations, the r. A. F. is
in bombing range of the Rumanian
oil fields from its base in Crete and
much nearer from the Greek main
land. Meanwhile, Hitler still main
tains diplomatic relations with
Greece, though Mussolini is at war
with Greece.

favorable for the march through

From Crete and the African coast
the R. A. F. can continue to pound
Italy inland and her navy to shell
her coasts, with her people in no
better spirit to bear it than her
soldiers TO stand the fire of the
Army OF the Nile. Where the dis
persion of Britains energies over
wide area was handicap early in
the war, it now has elements in her
favor. With Hitler committed TO
Mediterranean offensives. Britain
may be able to divert more of her
fleet from home waters to the
