Ne Planes In Vicinity

Unfortunately nD Army or Navy planes were on hand in the vicinity al the time. However. it has made the people of Calf ornia really war conscious. The increase in air patrols along the coast was soon very noticeable. Land forces were moving rapidly to various points and home de- fense organizations increased their vigilance
 MT Walsh further relates that on Feb 18th the whole coast of California was blacked out due to an air raid alarm of enemy planes alleged to have been sight ed over Los Angeles. Anti-air- craft guns were brought into ac- tion and 400 rounds of shells were said to have been fired at the alleged raiders. Some differences of opinion, however resulted af- ter an investigation as to the ac- tual appearance of enemy planes oyer the city. Secretary of the Navy Knox, stated no proof exist ed of enemy planes in the vicin- ity, while Secretary of War, Stim son, contended the Army had such proof.
 This controversy, aired Tn the press, was unfortunately very un timely However, irrespective of who was right in the matter, the anti-aircraft guns of Los An geles went into action and gave a demonstration that seemed like real warfare. The sky was lit up for a radius of many miles. Evi- dently they have the big guns.
 Air Force Ready on Coast
 Stopping at many airports in California, Oregon and Washing ton, MT. Walsh says that the mum Der of military aircaft seem to in crease in noticeable numbers each day. Huge bombers, fight ing planes of every description, land and take off continuously. Ground planes, with engines warm and pilots in the cockpie ready for action, were numerous. No question of the intense pre- paredness of the U. s. A.
