Heavy Fighting Reported on
Chinese Frontier.
By United Press

Heavy fighting, with field and ma
chine guns used on both sides, was
reported today from several points
along the Manchurian frontier,
where great masses Of Chinese and
Soviet troops are concentrated.
Pogranitchnaya, on the eastern
most end of the Chinese Eastern
railway, was reported partly evacu-
ated after several sharp clashes.
Manchuli, on the western frontier,
reported heavy cannonading.
The Soviet government issued a
note to Marking and Mukden warn
ing of the consequences if they fail
to disband the czarist Russian di-
visions which help swell the Chinese
forces in Manchuria.
Moscow admitted there had been
considerable fighting over the week
end, justifying Red army attacks on
the ground they were a defensive
measure after Chinese and white
guardist incursions into Siberia.
Toxic dispatches said political ex-
perts believed the new Soviet often"
sive was calculated to widen the
breach between the Mukden and
Marking governments, with a view
to the possible eventual overthrow
of Chang Kai-Shek, head OF the
nationalist government.

Committee to Investigate
Activities of Agent of
ShipbuiIders.
SUIT BRINGS ACTION
Paid Representatives of
Other Interests May Be

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10-The
senate naval affairs committee voted
today to investigate activities of
William B. Shearer, big navy adj
vocate at the Geneva preparatory
disarmament conference in 1927,
and his connection with American
shipbuilding corporations.
The investigation was demanded
by Chairman Borah of the foreign
relations committee, as a result of
a suit filed against three big ship
building corporations by William B.
Shearer, self styled naval expert. "
Shearer sued the Bethlehem Ship
building Corporation, the Newport
News Shipbuilding Corporation and
the American Brown Boveri Com
pany, claiming money was owed to
him for services at the Geneva dis
armament conference and in lobby
ing for navy building legislation.
Accuses AdmiralS
Shearer, in an interview Monday,
said he was encouraged to work
against reduction of this country's
naval ornaments by Admirals Sam
uel S. Robson, Charles P. Plunkett,
William V. Pratt and Henry A.
Wiley.
Secretary of Navy Adams, how
ever, declared mo improper rela-
lions" existed between any of the
admirals and Shearer at Geneva.
While the committee was meeting
today there was evidence in other
quarters the Shearer case would
revive interest in legislation to regu-
late lobbying.
Senator Caraway (Dem., Ark3,
who has introduced bill to require
the registration of lobbyists, an
nounced that, unless his measure is
passed at this session, he will de-
mand a senatorial investigation of
lobbying at the regular session OPEN
ing in December.
Lobbyists Fiji HOteIS
Lobbyists have been particularly
active during the tariff deliberations
of recent months, swarming here in
such numbers hotels have done ban
ner business.
However, the lobbyists against
whom Caraway is aiming chiefly are
those who make a year-round bust
ness of lobbying and have estab-
lished permanent quarters here.
A glance at the Washington tele-
phone directory gives an indication
of the situation. Names of organi-
cations with Offices here take UP
more than six columns in the di-
rectory and many of them, though
not all, are lobbyists.
