Gibraltar’s problem is to re-

The ordinary traffic: flow of mer- | chant and passenger vessels through | the straits is enormous. Add to that the motley fleet of government cruisers and gunboats trying to tighten the blockade on ports held by re Many Bt these government ships operate at night without lights, butting into barges, piers, and shipping.

Gibraltar feels the weight, too, of Portugal's nearness fo blood-spat-tered Spain. England is bound by | treaty to defend Portugal as strongly as if it were English territory. If reported efforts to drag Portugal into Spain's civil war, on one side or the other, show the slightest signs of materializing, England probably will enter the fight. And Gibraltar undoubtedly would be the base of operations. As long as the British watchdog {at Gibraltar is not attacked, it does not bite; but when danger comes to any of the links that form Britain's lifeline through the Mediterranean, then Gibraltar springs to life, And its teeth, in the form of heavy batteries of guns set in emplacements from bottom to top of the rock itself, have often, in times past, set their painful imprint on ambitious enemies. —— SE
