INVASION FEARED
PREMIER OF ONTARIO
(Received June 13, 12.30 a.m.)
TORONTO, June 12,
The Premier of Ontario, Mr. M. Hepburn, in a statement, said that trained and armed Nazi and Fascist sympathisers in the United States were awaiting orders from abroad to invade and destroy Ontario. He added that he had no confidence in the Dominion Government's help in the event of such an invasion, and he feared that by the time the Government acted the damage would have been done. A message from Montreal says that after a chase of 15 miles police arrested three Americans reported to be of European extraction who were caught photographing a restricted area of the waterfront on the St. Lawrence River.
