"The Blue Lagoon" is another of tho
South Sea entertainments that the
muse and manager have ordained to
the theater for an indeterminate pc
riod. IT. was discovered last night at
the Astor by the Shuberts under the
distinguished convoy of Basil Dean,
who had staged its London production.
Frances Carson and Harold French
played the length and breadth of '"The
Blue Lagoon in coats of tan and the
one-piccc bathing suits of untutorcl
savages, proving, AS the play sets out
tain attributes, whether man shavcs
with shell or safety razor.
The play is adapted by Norman Mac
Owen and Charlton Mann from tho
romance and love story of the same
name, by II. Dc We're Stacpool. The
tale tells Of a castaway pair of lovers
who grow up on remote Pacific island
with none OF the conventions of civili-
cation to thwart a single natural in
stinct. Thus one gets a closeup of
what might be the birth of religion,
marriage, industry and host ofAothcr
agencies that man has to his CT fort.

it is thoroughly understood that the

tapped the detective on the shoulder
and began talking.
He could give the two gentlemen a
real thrill, he said. 1t would cost them

down in one Of Chinatown's curling
thoroughfares there was an opium
'paror" where Chinese smoked real
opium, stretched themselves out on real
hunks and conducted themselves pretty
much as they pleased. He had the key
to the place, he said.

Protest ON Ship
Drug Raid Sent
British Consul
Agents of Greek Liner King
Alexander Denounce the
sskilling of Two to Seize
Small Lot of Liquor
u. S. Agents Called Brutal
Value of Illicit Narcotics
Only So, 500 Instead of a
Million, Says Complaint

Formal protest to the British Consul
Is New York against methods used by
United States narcotic and liquor law
enforcement agents in raiding the
Greek liner King Alexander, of British
registry, was made yesterday by N. "A.
Gaianos, head Of the firm of N. A..
Galanos & Co, which chartered the
liner from the Byron Steamship Com
pany, Of London. the owners.
The protest is scathing complaint
against the government raiders, Galanos
& Co. charging that two of the crew
were killed in the spectacular gun and
Delaying pin battle on the deck of the
liner last Friday morning.
No record could be found yesterday
of the two members of the crew alleged
to have been killed. The only dealh so
far verified is that of Frank J.. Fitz-
patrick, ono of the raiders found shot
IN warehouse on Pier 20, after the
fight on the ship. Alex Pappas, an
oiier on the King Alexander, is not ex-
pected to live at Long Island College
Hospital, Brooklyn. Two other mem
hers of the crew are dangerously
wounded
Accused Men All Greeks
All concerned In the conspiracy to
smuggle charged by the United States
government, and all the injured. are
subjects OF Greece. but the protest
was made to the British Consul because
of the British registry of the liner. n.
a. Galanos said chat there were strong
grounds for protest, and that his com
pany. if possible, intends to force an
part:
Various highly colored and sensa-
tional reports have been circulated re-
specting the amount of opium and
liquor which was found on the steam
ship King Alexander during the raid
of September g.
ut has been stated that the value Of
narcotics alone exceeded a million dol
lars. The fact is that according to
custom house reports there were found
secreted on the ship by the crew and
an their possession 500 small bottles
Of cocaine, 1924 pounds CT opium and
500 bottles OF liquor
so far as the narcotics are con-
cerned, [ understand that the Custom
House authorities say $4,000 is nearer
the value than 81 100000 They GER
tainly have no market value, as it
is strictly forbidden to import mar
cotics and they can only be disposed Of
Illegally. The owners of the steamship
Alexander and ourselves wish to CO.
operate with the authorities in every
way and have done so. We maintain
force of detectives and watchmen
to prevent any smuggling by the crew.
I'VE must protest, however, again st
the outrageous manner in which the
raid on the steamship Alexander was
carried out. Two members of the crew
were killed. Five were badly wounded
and. score or more battered and
bruised

Credulity Strained, Says Court

Discussing the allegations of fraudu-
lent dealings by Cibrario, Justice Nc
Avoy said; "Thc devious trail of pur-
chases by corporate organizations
whose existence he fostcred indicates a
design to cover these transactions by
an appearance of genulneness which
they do not in essence own themselves.
So palpable resort to possible chica-
merry is evidenced by the methods
adopted in arranging for and receiving
rebates on purchases that credulity is
strained to the utmost to assume that
they portray innocent dealing"

Soviet Entitled
To Sue i'm Courts
Here, McAvoy Rules
Grants Russian Government
Injunction and Receiver
in Proceedings TO Protect
Funds Held by Cibrario

Without judicIally recognizing the
Russian Soviet government as legal
body and holding that bclligcrcncy and
independence arc questions of political
determination, Justice McAyoy yester-
day upheld the right Of tho Soviet
regime, through It's authorized agents
here, to maintain an action in Ameri
can courts.
Tho justice decided that as tho own
err Of certain moneys and property hero
the present Russian government can
proceed legally to protect it, The de-
cision of Justice McAvoy was in the
injunction proceeding brought by the
Soviet government to restrain jacques
Roberto Cibrario, motion picture pro-
Queer, from dsposing of Soviet funds
turned over to him for educational
films. The petitioner also asked for
the appointment of Il receiver for the
property of the Soviet government in
the hands Of Cibrario.
Failed to Furnish Films, Charge
1t was alleged that the motion pic
ture man failed to furnish the pictures
paid for. In opposition to the injunc
ton and receivcrship proceeding Gil
brario raised the issue that the Rus
sian Soviet government had not been
recognized by the United States gov
eminent, and, therefore, had no stand
ing in American courts. Justice Me-
Avoy put aside the latter contention
and granted to the Russian petitioner
both the injunction and a receiver.
"1'he Soviet government sues here as
the prophet tor of money and property"
said the justice, (which money and
property were acquired by the defend
ant under direct contract with the rep
resentativcs of that organization. He
has recognized the Soviet government
by his own conduct and his dealing in
and receipt Of its money"

receiving rarty.
The club house was decorated

and ferns were used in the main
lounge where the guests ware re-

wards OF 1900 guests. military
precision was so well demonstrat ed
in the arrangements that there
was not the slightest crowding.
AS the guests came into the main

and In single file wound back and
forth In moving ribbon of color
In which appeared in contrast the
olive drab uniforms OF the army
and the uniforms OF the navy and

AS the guests were limited 10
members of the club and the
ladies' of their families, and the
military and naval attaches of the
various embassies and legations IN

members, there was much visiting
back and forth as the procession
