GREAT BRITAIN: New Naval Nest

Meeting in agitation last week, Britain’s Cabinet considered their position in view of the fact that Continental air forces have long been deemed able to bomb Britain’s Home Fleet handily at its present bases in the North Sea and the English Channel. Admiralty experts advised His Majesty’s Government to remove the Home Fleet to the extreme southern tip of Wales where Milford Haven affords the refuge of a strongly fortified harbor extending some ten miles inland. Forehanded as usual, the Admiralty announced that it has already bought lands at Milford Haven and is ready to launch a $2,000,000 program for making it a super-safe naval nest equipped with every means of repelling bombers.
