(A.P.) Th nnvy today drew nonp. thn gihI of Uh testimony before tho army court martial trylnK Colonel William Mitch fill, as a rewult of hiti charxeH of 111' competency In nianagomi'ut of avia tion. Lieutenant Commander II. II. fOHt. naval HtrateKlst expert, tetifled that in IiIh opinion an air Invasion of the l'nited StatoH by an Asiatic power Is InipoHBlhle wltliout ue by it of Kim ulnn and Canaillan territory. "Kven with Russian and Canadian assistance," ho said, "the invadlnK Iiower would require a very superior naval strength, at least three to one. over that of the United States. "We have no reason to become con cerned over the possibility of an air force attacking tho United States ncross the Pacific." Krost mild thnt the nlr InvadlnK force would undoubtedly start from KiisnmiMuura. about 40 miles from Tokio, and proceed north ulonK the line followed by the American round-the-world fliers. The flight throuKh the Aleutians, he testified, was not imprnclical. but was extremely diffi cult and uncertain. Long; non-stop Jumps would be necessary over Ice, mountains, and through dense fog hanks, hut these could be ovolded if Russian territory was available for bases. Froat recited at length tho troubles and delays that the world fliers en countered In the north Pacific and recounted the international assistance which, he said, was necessary to the Hiiccess of the flight. Scientific data and north Pacific navigation and . weather data were read Into the record to emphasize the contention thnt no nlr Invasion of the United States need be regarded ser ious ns a menace at the present time. Replying to Mitchell's charge that "the way America will he reached from Asia Is by way of Alaska," Frost said: ' "I do not believe any nation could seize Alaska under any conditions whatsoever." He agreed, however, that Russia had seized It. h m &h 'le:. , LL-r, 12, I'hihp, 18, and Warren Ljundulil, 15, brothers of Manhattan, Kan., l.ave carried off in the honors for Aberdeen Angus cattle in the exhibitions in which tlicv have participated this rem, imir iun.i iriimiiii!, in inu jvunius .-tuiiunai iivescocK snow, were SCO red with Ilie u..i a y mals with whicli thev arc shnvrt ; I -I RUSSIA ALARMED BY DRUNKENNESS MOSCOW, Deo.

The naval collier Orion, caught In a hurricane off the Virginia Capes Wednesday night barely escaped a disaster which may throw important light on the loss of the ill-fated Cy clops, a vessel of almost identical type. Wrenched by the tremendous seas as she attempted to round Cape Henry after leaving here Wednesday after noon for M-elvllle. It. I., with II, BOO tons of coal, the collier is believed to have been saved from breaking In two only by the swift decision of her skipper to put back to port. Kven though closer" bulkheads gave the Orion slightly greater strength In her longitudinal bracing than the Cy clops, her frames amtdsblp are known to have buckled and twisted In the Htorm and nho was leaking badly to day as she lay at a dock In the navy yard hero. The better longitudinal bnyhiff was the only difference In the two ships and the study which tho naval au thorities will make of the storm's ef fect on the Orion may throw consid erable light on the fale of the Cyclops, which has remained a sen mystery since her disappearance In March, 1018. Many marine authorities have held to the opinion that the Cyclops which was loaded with manganese, and car ried f7 passengers , twenty officers und m crew of 213, broke In two and went down before she could even flash a radio signal. The theory that she might have fallen thn victim of a German submarine was denied by the German authorities. She was last re ported at ItarhadocH In the British West Indies where alio put In for bunker coal. BUILD 'HIKES' ;l SHOT BY ITS TO PUT VOLSTEADISM OUT WASHINGTON', Pec. 8. (A.P.)
