June 4. -t(By A. P.) - American
marines have been landed at Puntarenas
and Port Limon, Costa Rica, because
of the revolution against the govern

cording to dispatches printed in news
papers here.
The revolution in Costa Rica has
been going on for the last two months,
but has been attracting considerable
attention in Central American coun-
tries for the last four weeks. Forces
said to be recruited from political ex :
lies formed bands along the Nicaraguan
frontier near Lake Nicaragua and ad :
vanced southwark, clashing on several
occasions with forces commanded by
Joaquin Tinoco, Costa Rican minister
of war. The fighting has been re-
stricted almost entirely to the noun
famous country near the Nicaraguar
border, although recently skirmishes
further south have been reported.
The situation is quite obscure, owing
to the fact that reports from Costa
Rica have been Of conflicting nature
Puntarenas is port on the Pacific
| coast of Costa Rica, and Is the Pacific
terminus of the railroad extending
across Costa Rica to Port Limon, which
is the most important harbor on th'
| Atlantic side of the country.

0KUMA FOR PREPAREDNESS
Japanese Statesman. Doubts Power
Of League to Maintain World Peace

Toxic, May 18.-(Correspondence of
the Associated Press. THAT it was
problematical how far the stipulations
Of the league of nations would be ef-
fective In maintaining the peace of the
world and that, therefore, japan would
be on the safe side in keeping her mill
tary strength in state of preparedness
was the opinion expressed yesterday at
meeting of military and naval mep by
Marquis Shigenobu Okuma. elder states
man and former prime minister.
Z The meeting was that of the Naval
and Military Aid Society of which Mar
quis Okuma is president. Among those
present were General Tanaka, the min
lister of war; Admiral Kato, minister Of
the navy, and M. Tokonami, minister
for home affairs.
The marquis added that the best and
only means for the assurance OF last
ing world peace was the complete de-
struction of the fleets of the great pow
ers.
