I OTTAWA, Ont., Aug. 21 0J.P A 78-year-old hard bitten retired British sergeant major waited on Vancouver Island, near Vlctorln, today for a rifle nnd 100 rounds of ammunition from his govern ment so ht could "sit on my verandah and shoot pnru ihooters." The prime minister's office opened a package from Sergeant ! Major D. Lyle, retired, contain ing as a donation to the govern ment the pensioner's lifetime col- lection of masonic Jewelry and ' the modest personal trinkets of hl dead wlfo. It was worth per-, haps $100 In the old gold market but must have had an inestimable tentlmental value. Accompanying the package was a letter embracing two re quests: "Will you kindly let me have a receipt for the Mnsonlc Jewelry ' Just as a record nnd a renson for I attending Masonic functions without Jewels if asked "Could your minister of war arrange for me to have a rifle and say 100 rounds of ammuni tion; that I could sit on my veran dah and watch for and shoot pora shooters. I am 73 years old and can't run about much." Included in tho letter was nn inventory nf the package's con tents. It listed the acquisitions of an apparently devoted career In Free Masonry, the personal Jewelry of Lylc's wife, presenta tion pieces gained in service with the imperial forces In China, and the lost Hem of personally valuable effects "one pair of sleeve links (one broken.") Also enclosed was a $5 bill. Prime Minister Mackenzie King immediately wrote Lyle: "Many examples of private generosity have come to my at tention and many contributions have beon made to tho govern ment by public spirited citizens. None has touched me more deeply thnn your unique gift of your own personal treasure to your country in its hour of need. "You muy rest assured thnt If the national emergency to which you refer ever arises, the minister for national defense will benr in mind your willingness to serve In a mora active rapacity."

No Evidence of Predicted Invasion Seen on Journey By FREDERICK OECHSNER WITH THE GERMAN AIR FORCE ON THE ENGLISH CHANNEL (Via Telephone to ' Berlin), Aug. 21 U P I com ' pleted a 2000-mile air and motor tour through Germany, Belgium ond France recently without see I log evidence of any expedition ary force which Germany could employ agninst Britain. If there were any large troop concentrations on the French and Belgian coasts or a short distance Inland 1 did not see them. My tour was arranged I and conducted by the German i high command. 1 travelled in company with six colleagues from Berlin. We travelled by motor car and air plane Irom Berlin and were taken ulong the French and Belgian coasts from Ostend to Boulogne. In that region I saw scores of emergency air fields but little sign of preparations for nn ex peditionary force. I saw how the Germans have made air fields out of farm lands nnd constructed hangurs out of buy barns. Frequently, I passed columns motor buses on lho roads. of They were filled with nlr force i men moving to air fields or to i anti-aircraft batteries which pep-i per the coastline. But the only ormy troop trains ' I saw wero moving to the oust , away from Britain. I INDICTED LOS ANGELES.

Tho greatest air activity which we saw was in the region of Cap Blanc Ncz and Cap Cris Nez only 21 miles from the British coast. Lurgo planes, the Sluka dive bombers and the Heinkey bomb ers, were camouflaged with na tural material. Tito German brilliance for camouflugc was ap parent. At many places where I had not the slightest suspicion of an air field nt hand you could hear the whir of motors. The German airmen radiated confidence that the German of fensive against Britain would succeed. I found the Belgian and French countryside looking well cared for but there obviously was a shortage of hands to handle the grain hurvest, now coming in. In both France and Belgium things are in the tidying up stage and major reconstruction has not yet started on any large scale. German soldiers, naturally. are to be seen everywhere and they dominate the scene in places like Calais and Boulogne. The French nnd Belgians with whom I talked said that the con- duct of the troops wns polite and correct. COUNT LARNED. Kas. 'EM ( ,F. - W.
