TT HIS is the true inside story Of

Baron Won Gottlieh, at the time military
attache Of the German Government with
the Russian army in the sccun |

drove Japan out of Manchurid and re-

Two years before at the time of the

Schultz, the head waiter at the East

The other end of the story came to
me through Lester Ford, the London
correspondent OF the New York Rcpub-
lie. They gave me permission to tell 1t

set down for the first dime.
What led directly to the invasion was
that some week end guest Of the East
Gin Hotel left copy of "The Riddle of
the Sands" in the coffee room, whore
Won Gottli,b found it. and the fact that
Ford attended the Shakespeare ball.
Had neither Of these events taken place
the German nag might now lie flying
over Buckingham Palace. And then
again II might not.

die of the Sands" is novel written 10y
a very clever Englishman in which *
disclosed a plan for the invasion Of his
country.

What the strategy board thought of
the plan Is a matter of history. This
was in 1910. \ year later. during the
coronation week. Lester Ford went To
