Thé war already has demonstrated that the British bases of Gibraltar, Malta and Alexandria are insufficient under modern air conditions to guarantee transit along - Britain's lifeline through Egypt to India, and the question of future trusteeship of such points as Tripoli, Benghazi and Derna is

Pantelleria, the Italian island midway between Tunisia and Sicily, also falls in this category and a realistic London newspaper letter writer has proposed that Britain should retain the island after the war and rename it Churchill island.
Use for Common Benefit
All such bases might be placed under the control of a new world organization which would guarantee their use for the common benefit and keep them out of the hands of future aggressors. But the British admiralty might also be expected to suggest that! since it already is well installed and fully capable of operating such bases | in the common interest, it would be

President, Roosevelt is on record against ever permitting Dakar to be employed again as a threat against the Western Hemisphere. 5 It is notable that neither Dakar nor Tunisia has been the scene of any French political agitation. Dakar still is run by French resident General Pierre Boisson, assisted by an American naval mission.
