WAR IS FORECAST.
Russian General Says Japan Plans
Struggle With Soviet.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, February 12.-Japan is
preparing to leap" to war in ST.
IBERIA, Gen. VASTLY Bluecher believes,
and Russia is ready.
Gen. Bluecher, commander of the
Soviet Far Eastern army, presented
to the All-Union Communist Party
Congress here what he regards as
proof" that Japan is making ready
for conflict against the Soviet. His
report was made public yesterday.
THE Red army is generally
strengthened. We have encircled our
frontiers by iron and concrete. They
will be sufficiently strong to break
any imperialist head that comes
against them"
Gen. Bluecher in revealing Russia's
preparations along the Manchurian
border, accused Japan of making an
armed base of Manchukuo. In sTp-
port of this he charged:
1. That Japan has sponsored con-
struction of about $40 miles of rail-
roads In North Manchukuo in the last
Two years, IS per cent Of which he
regards as economically unnecessary;
g. That about 1857 miles of high
ways have been opened in the same
region, and
3. That so aviation bases have been
concentrated north of Mukden.

Jones is on duty at Langley Field,

Galveston, Tex.
Swamped With Details.
Army Air Corps officers were
swamped with a mass of detailed
work in drawing up plans for the new
airmail service, but working plans
were being perfected rapidly.
Technical men at Army fields,
where observation and carrier cargo
planes are available for immediate
service, rushed the tuning up" Of
planes under orders from Maj. Gen.

Corps.
The first planes to be put into serv-

some of them may be eliminated al
together. No passengers will be car

1t is expected the usual landing
fields will be used by the Army planes
where arrangements can be effected.
No difficulty is expected by officials in
making arrangements.
Meanwhile the administration con-
tinued to hear criticism from private
aviation concerns of its sweeping ab-
rogation of airmail contracts.
There were intimations that the
administration is considering a COM
pletely revised governmental policy
for transporting ocean mail as we'll
as airmail and that Congress will be
asked to adopt it.
1t was pointed out that three gen.
eral courses were open.

FOR COURT CONTEMPT.
ARRESTED BY SENATE
President Ignores Lindbergh
Protest, Calling 1t Publicity
White House Acts When Message Is
Received After 1t A ppears in
Newspapers.

Col Charles A. Lindbergh's telegram
to President Roosevelt, protesting the
cancellation Of airmail contracts, will
not receive personal consideration by
the President, because the latter is
understood to feel that, inasmuch as
the telegram was given notice in the
newspapers prior to its receipt at the
White House, it was obviously sent
for publicity purposes
While President Roosevelt himself
did not express his feelings, his atti-
tude was made clear by Stephen T.
Early, one of his secretaries, who is
sued the following statement:
Except when the Senders of tele-
grams or other communications act
primarily for publicity purposes. the
common practice is to allow the Presi-
dent, when he is addressed by them,
the courtesy of receiving and reading
their communications before they are
read by others than the persons ad-
dressed.
Published Beforehand,
I'm this instance, the giving out of
telegram which bears the name Of
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh by his at
torney and legal advisor, Col Henry
Breckenridge, would indicate the mes
sage obviously was sent for publicity
purposes-at least it was published be-
fore 1t was received by the President.
The Presidents executive order,
under date of February 9. was issued
after the Postmaster General advised

JAPAN'S DIET ASKS
END OF WAR TALK
0utspoken Navy Officials
Hit for "Antagonizing
Public Opinion
BY Gable to The Star

BY Gable to The star
TOXIC, Japan. February l2.-
There will be less provocative state
ments designed to antagonize Ameri-
can public opinion by high japanese
naval and military officials if the
Diet has any control over Japan's
most outSpoken element.
Navy Minister Admiral OSumi, an
swering attacks in the Diet this aft
ernoon, promised that he would do
his part in gagging subordinates when
a Diet member declared:
Published articles by high naval
figures have resulted in instigating a
japanese American war fever and
therefore they should be ordered by
the navy minister not to repeat such
foolish things. BY dint Of their care
lessness the relations between Japan
and America have been strained. 1t
is most foolish to incite the senti-
ments of both sensitive nations bor-
dering on the Pacific
The 937 900 ,000-yen military budget
has been approved by subcommit-
tee and is virtually assured Of passage
through both houses Of Parliament,
according to opinion here.
The publication here of another
sword-rattling Soviet speech by Gen.
Vassili Bluecher, commander of the
Soviet army in the Far East, in which
Moscow declares that Japanese deeds
belle their words, has failed to evoke
any response, the Toxic foreign Office
merely commenting that all Soviet
generals have now been heard from.
1t seems apparent that responsible
official quarters here have success
fully put a damper on all Soviet and
American war propaganda.
