The main argument for the scheme is that it would be a short connecting link between the Atlantic and the North Sen, Fat much stragetia value in the event of war. ? particularly since the North Sea has be come of immensa importance in our Naval policy: The canal has been sneeringly called a "Back door" to Rosyth and a rab hole." But if the routa takon were. through the rich mineral country of the Forth and Clyde valloy, an inland arsenal could to obtained without its equal in the whole world. The coal and oil. resources of the district might also be utilised at the shortest notice, and the rapairing docks of the West Coast most readily reached by injured vessels from the North Sas should the docks at P Rosyth be at any time overtaxed.

As regards the mercantile marine, in the case of hostilition the canal would offerin safe passage between the Firths of Forth and Clyde, as an alternative to the open 816 and dangerous route of the English
