ABANDONMENT OF MALTA
NELSONIAN SCHOOL OF THOUGHT LORD STRICKLAND’S CONDEMNATION. (United Press Association—By CableCopyright.) (Received 28, 10.40 a.m.) Malta, Oct. 27. Condemning the Nelsonian school of thought in England, which advocated the abandonment of Malta and the blockading of the Mediterranean by means of bases at the entrance, Lord Strickland told the Senate that Lord Fisher’s intervention had prevented the abandonment of the island. If the British left Malta it would be occupied by France under threat of war. The possibility of war in the near future, he said, was indicated by the flow of capital into the English banks and the masses of bullion in the Bank of France.
