Norway regards the Altmark በ " warship which was free to travel through territorial waters, while the British maintain that the fact that she transporting prisoners made her passage through territorinil waters an act of war and therefore fnndmissible.

MOST OF WORLD IS AT WAR
ATLANTIS
YOU will see from map how large a part of the world is engaged in war. All but two of the Great Powers-the U.S.A. and Italy being the exceptions are fighting in one or other of the three wars which are in progress.
Take our war first. On one side are the mighty Empires of France and Britain. The British Empire covers a quarter of the world's land surface, its area being about 14 million square miles. Its population num- bers more than 500 million-which is a quarter of the Inhabitants of the world. France's Empire has 107 million people In Is 1,335,000 square miles..
On the other alde is Greater Germany which occupies a greater con- tinuous land area than any state In Europe except Russia. Including Wes- tern Poland, Slovakia, the Czech State, and Austria, the Germany of to-day covers 321,575 square miles and has a population of more than 104 millions. Buf Poles and Czechs are anti-Hitler and the Slovaks cannot be relled on by the Nazis. Many of these Slavs are fighting to-day on our side.
Then there is Stalin's war against Finland. The V.S9.5.R. covers a
sixth of the world's land surface and has the advantage of being one con- tinuous area, unlike any other great Empire. Its peoples number more than 180 millions. Finland has 3,800,000 people.
