"INVASION" HAS
MILITARY HERALD

Through a curious coincidence Gen.
Homer Lea, who is we'll known in Los
Angeles, has just published in Har-
per's Weekly an important article on
the "Vulnerability OF the Pacific Coast
to Invasion" in which he, writing as
an experienced strategist, arrives at
pretty much the same conclusions
reached by Julian Johnson in his play,
| Invasion" which will have its first
production on any stage at the Bur-
bank theater this afternoon.
Gen. Lea, dealing with facts, shows
the vulnerability of the coast in and
near Greater Los Angeles, to an at
tack from even an inconsiderable part
of the Japanese navy. Mr. johnson,
writing for the stage, makes his at
tacking fleet the engine of new
power or combination of powers which
! he calls the "Muscovite Alliance" and
which, he is very careful to explain,
is not japanese but itself anti-Japan-
ese.
Gen. Lea predicts that should at
| tack come the invading navy would
| strike, not at San Pedro, because OF
! the danger from mines, but would oc-
| cupy Santa Monica bay, nearer Los
| Angeles proper and hence more inn
portant strategcally. Mr.. Johnson has
his feet come to rest off "Capricola, a
beach resort of Los Angeles" More
| over, Mr. Johnson has anticipated Gen.
Lea's point regarding the mines; for
| in the play San Pedro harbor is mined
and before Kaneko, leader of the in
vasion and its inspiring genius, at
tempts to occupy the harbor he forces
! from a girl the secret of the mine con-
troll and fires the mines.
From this point on Gen. Lea contin-
ues his consideration of what would
happen once the japanese had occu-
| pied Los Angeles and thus held in their
power the whole of Southern Cali
| fornia. Mr.. Johnson, writing a play
and contriving a love story, does not
! go so far He grants the invading
! fleet anchorage within the harbor per-
mits the landing of an advance guard
from the army of occupation, then he
sends his hero and his heroine up into
the clouds in military aeroplane,
supplied with new and high power eX-
plosives with which they destroy the
Muscovite fleet
The earlier acts of the play, how
: ever. and the opening of Gen. LEAFS
article present a curiously identical
parallel Fortunately the fact that
! play ami magazine discussion must
! have been written about the same time
serves merely to emphasize the force
| of the conclusions reached.

SUPREME COURT is
Put On TRIAL

ed for business in the afternoon.
G. Will Shaffer, of the State Bar
Association, objected on behalf of
the supreme court, to any evidence
being taken except such as related
to the court being corrupt. He
declared the committee had no
right to consider whether decis-
ions OF the court were right or
wrong In the absence of proof that
the opinions were the result of
fraud OF corruption instead of
honest errors OF judgment. Attor-
ney Fogg, who had represented
Snowden in the Anderson case. al
so protested against that much lit
igated suit being gone into again.
Mr.. Fogg, however. declared
that the statements made by An
derson were correct In that the
court had misstated record facts In
Its opinion.
Herbert De Wolfe of Tacoma,
who made the original charges,
was on the stand for the remain
der of the afternoon In an effort
to substantiate his charges that
the court had, from improper mo-
tives, decided contrary to the law
and the facts in opinions render
ed against De Wolfe when he was
city attorney OF West Seattle.

OLSON PROBABLY
KILLED BY
FUMES

That Anders Olson, the man
who was found dead in a stranded
launch on Anderson island last
Friday night, met his death by in
haling gasoline fumes, is evident
from the evidence given at the in
quest this afternoon by e. e. Shell
green, who was found In the
launch asleep from the effects of
the fumes.
Shelgreen told the coroner's
jury that in filing the gasoline
tank, quantity of gasoline was
spilled in the bottom of the
launch. Olson was asleep on the
bottom of the boat while Shell
green sat at the wheel and. as
gasoline vapor is heavier than air
this accounts for the more serious
effect upon Olson.
Shelgreen said that he became
drousy as they proceeded toward
their homes at Long Branch, and
when he became alarmed and
tried to awaken Olson he was
unable to arouse him. He then
stayed at the wheel until he be-
came unconscious. He was found
with his hand still grasping the
wheel and leaning against the side
of the cabin. He could not state
Just where they were when he lost
consciousness.
