While gone he al so visited Mr. and Mrs. -Henry Illnton and their son, Ceorge. at their home at Westport, Wash. The Illntonn have many friends here us a number of years ago tile Knglish as they pursue v.'lmt thry describe us n strutegy of "ac tive derense" and give ground to numerically superior invaders.

These natives are a hard lot, whom the llrltish finally got In hund niter yeurs of warfare but who will fight at the drop of the hat. They are anil everything I hut's foreign, and the IiullunB must expect to have to conquer them before consolidat ing their gains.

Channel Still Main Arena Or, to get right down to cases, the outcome of this whole African show Is likely to ho determined, not on the Sahara but on the Kng Huh channel. For as Hitler's tilftzkrieg against Kuglund goes, so will go the conflict on the dark continent, Should the Italians undertake the assault on Kgypt, we shall have a campaign that will present the other extreme of the terrible conditions under which (he Kusso Flnuish war was waged.
