This is seriously impeding the Germans in their J aitacKS upon pruain. lyqi oniy are numoers oi uerman planes being shot down but many planes on the ground at or near their airdromes have been ,destr,oye,d. This bombardment is' increasing jn intensity every day. LOOKING AHEAD In his speech to the Empire on Sunday Prime Minister Winston Churchill intimated that in two years Britain would no longer be on the defensive but would b,e passing through the offensive stage. The British were unafraid antj jundisniayed. . That is the sort of talk we like to hear from the head of our government. It reflects the spirit .of the British nation. SPECIAL CONTINGENCY One .of the special contingencies that the Canadians are reserved for seems likely to be going to the defence of Ireland if that .country should be attacked. While the government .of Eire is not willing that British troops should land in that country at present, she is quite agreeable to jitiy vuiiuug in uioc iiic ciicjiij ciiuuiu atwriiipi a lanuili there. It seems quite possible that Ireland may become the firs.t battleground between the British and the OJ&COMFDRTARLE POSITION Recent moves by Britain and the Soviet have put Italy in an incrcasihjjfy uncomfortable position. Jtaly gambjejd on her abjlity t,6 time her plunge into the war so shrewdly that she waujd secure a large slice of the victors spoils, without haying had to fight a really serious war to get them. This Has nothing to do with the unpopularity of the war itself among Italians. Mussolini knows all too, well that inescapable economic facts make it impossible) for Italy to figh.t a long war against any supreme naval power. That is why Britain's coup, in preventing .the"j French fleet from falling into the hands of the dictators, or their stooges in France, is probably one of the most de-4 cisive actions ot modern times.
