 It is the thought of a naval battle in the Baltic that makes Finland and Sweden look at the Aland Isl- ands with anxiety. From the once highly fortified group, the coast of Sweden and Finland could .,..e dom- mated.
 Expert Urges Quick Action
 In an article published here Rear Admiral G. von Schoulz, Russian liaison officer with the British fleet in the World war, recommends that the Finnish government try imme- diately for permission to fortify Aland.
 Mutual defense of the islands by Sweden and Finland, he points out, would prevent the islands from fall ing into the hands of Baltic naval power with possibility of lombard ment and raids.
 Situated only 25 miles from the coast of Sweden, and only Is from Finland, the archipelago commands the entrance to the port of Stock holm and the approaches to the Gulf of Bothnia through which most Swedish shipping is carried.

RUSSIAN AND ENGLISH
ARE COMBINED IN PLAY
Bi-Lingual Drama Is Successfully
Presented by Local Group
of Acfnrs

THIS idea of combining Russian and

Is very interesting and lot of fun.
The most fun is had of course, by the
members of the audience who under
stand both languages, but Who's

members of the audience who under
stood Russian and from those who
had a pretty good idea of what was
going on anyway.
The play Is a pleasant and enthu-
siastic comedy-maybe even an hila-
fious one if you can understand all
the lines. You can get goodly share
Of enjoyment and follow the thread of
the tale, though. even without under
standing Russian. The program was
q big help last night, with a printed
synopsis of part of the first act, telling
about old Gen. Alexander Belsky, who
opened an antique shop after his Rus
sian restaurant failed, and introduc-
ing various important players.
The general Is commissioned to put
on a Russian play and Immediately
goes out of the antique business to
transform his shop into the proper
Bohemian atmosphere for a group of
actors. The high light of the third
act is the play within play, Honor
and Revenge" a farce, written by
Vladimir Gsovski from his memory
OF a French melodrama in which he
once played.
Outstanding among the players in

much bombast, and Virginia True.
