Tlv-t an army of such p< rperuors
would prove most f rmidatle when
landed cannot be doubted but w hat it
it were dauble or treble which is easily
poeeibie to any of the larger nations *
Does it not seem that in that event we
would have a rather fair.sh sized prob

t-.ectec.us possibilities i disaster4 In
deed is seems so and it a.so looks as
though we will have to v-nee for all
relegate that ancient belief in the im
possibility of sustaining serious harm
through the aggression of a foreign
army, to the l-mbo of worn out theories

transported in a . omporatic ely small

entirely unprotected coast line is a
matter almost beyond dispute and the

Mittle or no protection other than that
jafforded by our war fleet and even this

Eiher event is possible and. should

little to prevent an invader from com
'muting .n immense destruction, at

clear that our theorists must greatlv
