London, Monday. The evacuation of the Channel Islands by the British armed forces has been followed, as was inevitable, by their occupation by Germany.

As the first guns were fired some people sought shelter others watched the smoke of the bursting shells. German raiders appeared over Wales last night. A raider was driven back from the coast by aircraft. Some bombs were dropped on the coastline. Three bombs were dropped in a field in the Bristol Channel area.

In one area in the South-west this morning anti-aircraft batteries were constantly in action. Enemy aircraft flew over several times. In the bombing in the Bristol Channel area damage is believed to he slight, and no casualties are reported. STORY OF RUNNING FIGHT An Air Ministry bulletin describing the destruction of two enemy bombers, says that they were shot down into the sea by Spitfire and Hurricane fighters. In one case three Spitfires were on patrol off the north-east coast when they sighted a Heinkel 111 flying at a height of more than two miles.

The fighters immediately dived to the attack, but the bomber disappeared in clouds. Antiaircraft guns later gave away the bomber's position and the Snitfirp MORE BOMBING IN GERMANY R.A.F.'s Latest Raids Further attacks on oil-storage tanks, marshalling yards, and aerodromes in North-west Germany were carried out by R.A.P. bombers on Sunday night.

OTHER LESSONS There were, however, lessons other than military to be learned from the defeat of France. "Although France was fighting for the preservation of democratic institutions and all that they imply, from the time of the invasion of Norway her Parliament completely ceased to function.

It is inconceivable that the representatives of the people, had they been consulted, would have tolerated so base a surrender of their national honour and of the liberties of which they were the guardians. It is imperative in this country that Parliament should be kept virile and vocal and should vigilantly survey the progress of the war at every stage. Suppression comes from fear, and in France news and views in the newspapers were rigorously censored. There are ample penalties for those who deliberately impede the conduct of the war, bat if the vital cord which communicates inspiration and suggestion to the Government is severed the heart goes out of the struggle. General de Gaulle, leader of the L'rch volunteer legion, announced London last night that he has npointed Vice-Admiral Muselier to commander o.

The marshalling yards at Osnabruck and Hamm were again bombed and large fires this co-ordination, it is pointed out, will From the purely military point of view it may be said to be a liability rather than an asset, for such garrisons as the charge of factories working for national defence. When he heard of the-armistice negotiations he drove all night to Paris and arrived almost at the same time as the German troops. He managed, however, to destroy several secret plans and plant in national defence factories before the Germans occupied the city.

He escaped from Paris using abandoned private cars, lorries, a horse-driven car, and even a fire-engine before he reached Marseilles. There he rallied several naval officers and men. manned a warship, and sailed to Gibraltar. After a few days at Gibraltar he was given an R.A.F. machine and flew to Britain to join General de Gaulle, enable each factory to be used to the resulted.

Throughout the machinery of Government every procedure and convention which delays action must be eliminated. We cannot conduct a war with peace-time methods of administration. IRELAND Diplomacy, no less than arms, was an instrument of war.

There was one important field where there was urgent need for imagination and inspiring action. The question might be who was to get the ports of Ireland first. Was it to be Hitler? This could be prevented only by a united defence policy in Ireland. Surely in the circumstances a united policy in Ireland was not beyond the wit of the Government to achieve If Germany could obtain the Shetlands, the Faroes, or Iceland our northern Atlantic routes would be jeopardised. Her occupation of Ireland would cover our only remaining flank and make the arrival of those supplies from America on which we were counting most hazardous.
