PAGE FOUR had fewer than 200 planes for this task, that Britain destroyed Hitler's hope of invading England by knocking out the means of transportation which he had assembled for this purpose. In the light of this accomplishment, one of the great mysteries of the war is why no similar attempt was made by Hitler against Allied ship concentrations before the sailing of the invasion convoys from British ports, As Brig. Gen Horace Sewell of the British Army notes: “The Ger- mans must have known where the craft were massed Tt is light for eghteen out of twenty-four hours in the south of England during May and June.

Now the bank is to become a reality with the establishment in New York Hospital of one which is to receive eyes that have been donated by will or from those whose sight is gone because of some defect of the optic nerve. Gruesome as such banks may seem, | banks that are to be found in every large city. The } ight of about 100,000 in this country could be either aved or restored Both blood banks and eye banks originated in Russia.

Disease, a blow spattered hot liquids and metals may injure the cornea so that when it heals it is fogged. The operation therefore consists in giving the eye a new window. | The broad principle of the opeartion goes_back to 1910. If it has not been developed until comparatively recently, it is for lack of the proper technique. That technique having been devised, humanity is presented with 2 new boon What nex It is hard to res bility of transplanting whole organs INVASION—1910 It has often been said that Hitler’s biggest mistake in the war was in not trying to invade England after the fall of France. Now Winston Churchill erases that error at least from the Fuehrer's record of bad guesses. He did try and failed After the miracle of Dunkerque Britain's defenses were desperately weak in 1940, Germany's terrific striking power wa t its peak. Only a few miles of choppy water separated the two uneven forces. It seemed certain to many that the Luftwaffe’s furious assault on England was only preliminary to a mass troops across the Channel. Tt never came. But Mr. Churchill reveals to the House of Commons that it was planned and prepared.
