NAVAL PANORAMA SHOWS BRITAIN'S MIGHT CONCENTRATED IN THE MEDITERRANEAN:

Seldom has Britain's might on the seas been better illustrated than in this picture. Despite some enie in the tension between Italy and Britain, a huge British navy still patrols the Mediterranean. The above panorama shows ships of the royal navy gathered at Alexandria. These warships are continually on the move, and it is not often that so many are sech at one time. On the LEFT is 11.M.S.
