V The Battle of Taranto '
: !- The end of three of the heavy units of the Italian fleet,
and of some oda ugater -.vessels, is ometrhat ignominious.
Instead of -in dawn in "glorious combat," as Mussolini
likes to say, gnsttin? victory for. the fascist state from the
very arms of death, they perished rather quietly ia the nug
ness of their lurbor" hkaeaL It was not only ignominious.
rtgnor, it was pcsiUreiy fcumdiaunir!
f According ts the news Teports, which are ati3 subject to
sabstantiatioa aad brea3enii; of detail, the end carae when
the British got around early in the weeSrta seadias a lot of
, planes over ue naval base at Taranto. la the fastep of the
Italian boot The KAr ships dropped plenty of bombs and
torpedoes, aad then raced away, leaving behind them the dis-
ne veiled fcuifct.e the nce-proud battleships of the Italian
- line. The planes did ia a few hours what the ships of the royal
aavy have-scasfct in yaiztto do for months.
- That their victory is real the British are already assuring
m themselves. Nor are they ia error ia doia aa, far if the con
sequences of the battle are aa great aa report have them, the
balance of sea power in the Mediterranean has been radically
altered. r-)
'3f Threa of Italy's ait cajHtal ships are aaid to be destroyed.
These are the shipa which Britain has felt constituted a
threat, withal a vaxue threat, at her lifeline thraash the mid
dle seas to the East; and with half of them sunk, the protec
tion of the Sues canal, the supplying of the troops in Ejrypt
from the west, the support of the Greek effort aainst Italy,
., and the aeveriac of .supply lines between the Italian mainland
and the fascist expedition against Ejrypt from Libya are all
made immensely easier. Ships may be withdraws to seek out
the raiders in the Atlantic, or to assist in breaking: the counter-blockade
which stretches tighter around the British Isles.
! Tet even with the sinking: of half of the Italian line of
battle, the British are not yet entire masters ia the seas be-
rtween Gibraltar and Port Said. The fascist fleet still boasts
a brood of small, fast ships and submarines, aone of which
Has been the equal of British ships of the same aixe, bat which
can be annoying: nevertheless. Until these are swept from the
sea, and the remainder of the Italian battleships sunk, the

All of this is of the first importance, tactically speaking.
What will perhaps ultimately prove of most lasting signifi

now and in the future. If other elements prove to have been
in vol red, or the victory is less than was thought, the conse-
fit a m a .

the brief struggle will be subject to the most searching criti

; Necromancy in Politics
And now far a lance at the; polls of puWle opinion, their
effect upon tha election and its effect upon them. Some north
west editors have gotten around to this aabject earlier but,
strange to relate or is It? they scarcely agree. Seme say
the polls were remarkably accurate and their futare is as
sured ; others say they were all wet and will hare no future
standing. These deductions are all drawn from the same set
offsets.
The Gallup poll gels furthest out on a limb by announc
ing percentages and making its predictions in detail by states.
But it hedges a trifle by permitting itself a 4 per cent margin
of error. Oa that basis its over-all predict! a was correct
It gave Roosevelt 52 per cent of the popular vote; he polled
S4.7 per cent, ao Gallup was 2.7 per cent off. Fortune was
closer at per cent ; Louis Bean of the department of agri
culture hit it closest of all by figuring the democratic nom
inee would receive between 54 and 55 per cent, bat he made
the prediction before the conventions, and that leaves It some

A nearby example is the state of Washington, which not only
