 Tokio, June 11-(U.P.)-A clash betwen Japanese se-Manchukuoan and Russian soldiers in which a Russian was killed was revealed to- day while Japanese forces were consolidating their position in China.
 Japanese and Russian versions contradicted each other directly. Each nation blamed the other. and each has filed protest.
 All that was certain was that a patrol of Japanese and Man.huku- on soldiers met patrol of Rus sians on the eastern frontier of Manchukuo and that a Rsssian was killed.
 The fight occurred June 3. It was not made public until Russia an nounced its protest.
 Japan's version is that the pa trols met on Manchukuoan soil, near Lake Hanka. Lake Hank1 lies mostly in. Siberia but juts out into Manchukuoan territory.
 Fired On Japanese
 The Russian, the foreign office said, fired on the Japanese. The Japanese, a spokesman said, re- quested that the Russians cease firing. The firing continued. 1t vas asserted, and the Japanese replied, killing one Russian soldier who was buried respectfully. The burial feature, it was noted. would tend to confirm the story that the clash occurred oh Japanese soil.

 GUS and Get It

 Noon Ended Scrap
 Before the issue could be decid- ed, it was noon and the senate by previous agreement had to return to the public utility holding com- pany bill on which a vote was set for p. m.
 Chairman Pat Harrison of the senate finance committee after. much maneuvering had evolved a compromise MIRA resolution which he believed met all objections and could be pafssed between 11:30 a. m., and noon. Some of the allot- ted half hour was fritted away and then Gore upset Harrison's strategy.
 The resolution would extend a skeletonized MIRA next April and faces action in the house.
 Harrison Explained Bill.
 Harrison explained the continue ing resolution, saying his commit tee was sponsoring an amendment which, he said, would protect the country from any general suspen- sion of antitrust laws. Any agreements entered into un- der the voluntary action of the re- covery act would apply only to in- terstate commerce, he said, in keeping with the supreme court Schechter case decision knocking out the MIRA.

RECISTRARSCASE WILL BE HEARD
 COMING FRIDAY
Judge Peasley Fixed Date for Hearing the Petition
 on Legality

Judge Frederick M. Peasley fixed Friday afternoon at o'clock for hearing the petition raising the question of the legality of the ap- pointment of the two registrars by Mayor Frank Hayes, following 6 discussion of the petition in su- perior court today. Attorney J Warren Upson, counsel for William B. Pape. who brought the applica- tion, asked the court to fix a time for hearing the case.
 Corporation Counsel Charles s. O'Connor who represents Peter H. Dunais, republican registrar ap- pointee and John T. Derwin, demo- cratic registrar appointee, informed Judge Peasley he would be tied up in a case scheduled for assign ment today.
 Time Was Agreeable
 MT. Upson said the pleadings had been closed in accordance with the discussion held last Friday when the case first came to the attention of court. MT. Upson suggested the matter be heard this Friday after the short calendar session ana when MT. O'Connor offered no ob- lection, Judge Peasley fixed the time for o'clock.
 The petition of MT. Pape's claims Mayor Hayes had no right to name MT. Dunais and MT. Derwin to the positions formerly held by Thomas F. Dillane and Henry O'Connor. on the ground that the offices were never vacated. The petition de- bends on the General Statutes which specifically states that when a vacancy in the registrars office occurs, the deputies shall automati- cally fill the vacancies.
 MT. O'Connor in his answer claims that Mayor Hayes had the right to make the appointments by power vested in him by a special charter act passed in 1881.
