If the plan becomes a reality eastern England would lose miles of Its seacoast. But with a great part of the Norfh sea drained, a vast new land would come Into being with rich,mineral wealth to keep a population of over 20,000,000. The German experts, according to the reports, are considering building two ginnt dams.^ One would stretch from Hunstanton! Norfolk, near Sandrin^ ham, the king's country residence, to the upper coast of Denmark, and the other around Kent, across the English channel and along the Belgian and Dutch coasts to the neighborhood of Scheveningen, the Dutch seaside resort next to The Hague. Dover and Calais would be connected by giant bridges, thus making a channel tunnel unnecessary. Norfolk and Essex would lose their seaboards. Between the dams would be a new land--more than 100,000 square miles in area--possessing amazing mineral wealth and possibly rich oil fields. British experts almost unanimously view the scheme, as impracticable. One described it as "a wildcat scheme," Tidal conditions appear to be the chief obstacle.
