WAR VERY NEAR,'
MOSCOW WARNS
German-Japanese Alliance
Is Discussed Openly by

By the Associated Press.

MOSCOW, August Communist
Russia warned tonight war is very
near"
On the anniversary of the declara-
ton of state of hostilities between
old imperial Russia and Germany, the
Soviet press devoted thousands Of
words to an outline of world antag-
onisn.
Openly discussed by newspapers was
what was said to be the existence of
a German-Japanese military alliance,
or progress in that direction, as a
challenge to the Soviet Union and
world peace.
Enemies Of peace were described as
Germany, Japan, Italy and Poland.
Three Turn Against Britain.
"War Is very near and preparations
for it never have been so open, rapid
and provoking" asserted Pravda, Com
munist party organ.
Italy, Germany and Japan have
turned against England, which, in
panic and the most unworthy confu-
sion, confuses the whole foreign policy

servative nation," Pravda added.
Izvestia, government moutpiece, de-
clared: 1.-THE japanese menace is di-
rected not only against the Soviet
Union and the Mongolian Republic,
but also against Central and South
China. the Philippine Islands and In
donesia (Sumatra, Java and BalD."
The Moscow News continued: Ger
many and Japan, which represent the
basic zones of war, have followed italy
and Poland, whose policies have been
largely responsible for the intensiflca-
ton of war danger.
Only Question of Time.
"Poland's foreign policy clearly sug-
gests the existence of secret political
agreement between Germany and Po-
land, forcing the latter to follow a
policy Of German imperialism"
The only question is when war will
break out, observed Karl Radek in
IZvestia.
THE main purpose of German
diplomacy" he wrote, "is to isolate
France from the Soviet Union and OBJ
tain British neutrality, simultaneously
exercising revisionist powers"

ABOARD ROOSEVELT TRAIN EN-
ROUTE TO HYDE PARK, N. Y,
August AFTER a personal check-up
on food control and relief situations
in Vermont and New Hampshire to-
day, President Roosevelt told news
paper men aboard his train he was
going to insist on larger ratio Of
relief workers being employed on p.
w. A. projects.
He said he found only 81 per cent
Of the labor on Vermont p W. A.
projects was coming from relief rolls
and only IS per cent in New Hamp-
shire.
This was entirely too low, he added.
AS he put it, he said he was going
TO be more hardboiled in the future
and insist that greater numbers be
taken from w. P. A. lists before ap-
proving any more projects under the
P. w. A. revolving fund sections of
the 1886 relief act.
Before boarding his special train
at Hanover, N. H, for his third State
conference Of the day at Springfield,
Mass. the President made an auto
mobile inspection tour of of the 10
large flood control dams planned for
New England to check the dis
astrous floods Of recent years. These
were the Little River Dam, near Wa
terbury. VT, where the tour started
after breakfast, and the Wrightsville
Dam, above Montpelier, VT.
Two Conferences Held.
He also conferred with State and
Federal officials at the State House
at Montpelier and aboard his train
at Hanover, and cited the huge C. C.
c. construction dam above Mont
pelier. credited with having saved
that city from disaster last Spring,
as his answer to "boondoggling"
critics.
He passed through Barre, Vt, where
third dam has been completed, but
did not see it.
He told his press conference that
five more days were planned in Yer
mont and two in New Hampshire,
but further progress depended on
agreement on an interstate compact
as to division of about s6,0o0,000 Of
land damage costs by those States
and Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
He said Cows. Charles M. Smith of
Vermont and H Styles Bridges of
New Hampshire, with whom he con-
ferred before seeing Gov. James M.
Curley of Massachusetts,, had told
him the chances were good for ap-
proval Of compact. Then the State
Legislatures and Congress will have
to approve it before the projects can
be started.
c. c. c. workers would be used on
the larger dams and w. P. A. workers
on the smaller ones, he said.
The President said he was going over
to Connecticut later to look into the
food situation. Just when, he could
not say.
While waiting for action on the COM
could find enough money to complete
four or five W. P. A. projects involving
the cleaning out of stream beds where
they are owned by localities and new
land acquisition is not required.
