AMERY SUMMARISES HITLER'S WAR MACHINATIONS

LONDON, Oct. 27 (Router),—"The Battle of Britain may not be over, but its issue, I believe, is already decided," said Mr. L. M. S. Amery, Secretary for India, in an address' to-day. "The Battle of the Empire comes next," he continued. "Frustrated in the attempt to destroy our Commonwealth by one blow at its heart, Hitler will try to achieve his purpose by striking at the next vital point, namely our hold on the Mediter- ranean, our lifeline to the East, and particularly our position in Egypt and Palestine on both sides of the Suez Canal.

"If he couk! drive us out of there

"He would have broken through i our blockade and be in a position to threaten Indio and British Africa at close quarters.
