Undoubtedly f the maj ority of people attach less importance to dreams in this day and time. How ever, when an individual has the experience of an unusual drean. and this occurs more than one time lit certainly leaves an im pression upon that persons mind that is hard to dispel. Such was the experience of your reader and this is the dream: “After the Germans we re unsuccessful in over coming Great Britain by their tremendous air raids Hitler called his Military ! Leaders together and after ;a lengthy discussion it was their conclusion ” that the British Isles could not be taken by air or by water. It was suggested, and per haps by Hitler, that since the only three ways of ap proach to the Isles were by air, water and under gro und, they were left only the last method. Knowing that | consideration had 1q n g been given to constructing a tunnel underneath the English Channel this was the plan agreed i conclusion of the dream was that -the Germans were now undertaking to carry out this plan.« •- Having twice had this dream the Dreamer made an investigation of the possibility of such a meth od of approach to the Brit ish Isles. To his surprise he found that as early as 1861 and as late as J. 929 the idea of constructing a tunnel through which trains might pass to and from England and France had interested the people of both countries; that from time to time the idea had been proposed. That the English Channel was for merly a broad valley and that to construct a tunnel on a railroad grade from Calais, France, to Dover, England would require a distance of less than 25 miles under water and a total length of less than 35 miles; that at the deepest place the tunnel would be less .than 100 feet below the bed of the Channel and about 265 feet below the surface of the water at this point. The material through which such a tun nel would have to be const ructed is a material that is not penetrated by water. More difficult things have been undertaken - and the feats of engineers in the United States have undoubtedly been more di fficult than the construct ion of such a tunnel. Hitler the fanatic, has surprised the world with some of his feats as well as shocking the world with his acts of brutality. Would he under take a thing like this? The occasional bombings on the English coast could be a mere pretense and could be timed to counteract any earth tremors caused by the use of high explosives in such a tunnel In addit ion to this, the Germans are in possession of the French coast along the Channel.
