ing all available reserves.

ACCUSED BY PRAVDA
Abuse Of Rank by Spreading Anti.
Soviet Propaganda Charged.

By the AssociAted Pres

By the Associated Press.
MOSCOW. August la.-JapAnese
Ambassador Mamoru shigemitsu was
accused today by Pravda, the official
Communist party newspaper, of
abusing his diplomatic rank BY
spreading secret nti-Communist pro-
paganda in the Soviet capital.
At the same time, the Russian news
paper Soviet Siberia reported the ex-
ecution OF "a convicted spies and
wreckers at 1rkutsk after military
trials on charges of terrorist activity
for the Japanese intelligence service.
This was the second large-scale ex-
ecution reported within two weeks in
Siberia. On August IL, u persons
were put 10 death on charges OF con-
niving with Japanese secret service
agents to wreck Russian Far East
railroads.
Pravda, charging Shigemitsu with
"unbecoming conduct" limited broadly
that propagandist activities would not
be tolerated.
IT Shigemitsu is inclined to write, :"
the newspaper declared. we suggest
he find another outlet for his talent,
because his work is not becoming
either to the Ambassador or to the
big country he represents"
The reference was to a statement
which Shigemitsu handed to foreign
correspondents here disputing Russian
charges that japanese organized and
protected q White Russian raid on the
Soviet consulate In Tientsin, China.

BY J. A. O'LEARY,

The House Military Affairs Commit
tee today voted favorable report on
the Camp Springs airport bill without
Changing the Senate provisions.
This development is expected to re-
lease the Copeland Washington
Airport improvement bill from the mo-
ton to reconsider. This has kept it
snageed in the Senate for several DAYS.
Both measures now have a chance OF
enactment before the session ends
whereas yesterday it appeared neither
might get through the final legisla-
tive stages.
The House committee acted after
more than an hour in executive ses-
sion, during which Senator King
Democrat, Of Utah and Representative
Nichols. Democrat, of Oklahoma
Joined in plea for approval of the
Camp Springs bill. Both were men,
oers OF the District Airport Commits
sion. which recommended the site in
Prince Georges County near the road
to Southern Maryland for the develop
ment OF large, modern air terminal
luz Lie NatlOnal capital.
Can Now Go to Conference,
The Copeland May bill. designed to
make the existing Washington Airport
safer field. has passed both houses.
and conferees have been appointed.
They cannot take the bill into con-
ference for final adjustment, how
ever. As long as the motion to re-
consider hangs over the measure in
the Senate.
Senator King indicated on leaving
the House meeting that If the House
committee reported the Camp Springs
bill. and efforts are made to have
the House pass it, he would with
draw his objection to the other bill
going to conference This step may
be taken this afternoon.
Representative May of Kentucky.
acting chairman of the House COM
mittee, said efforts will be made tc
get the Camp Springs bill up in the
House under suspension OF the rules
before the session ends.
Funds Must Be Voted.
The Camp Springs bill is only an
authorization. The $3,286,25o needed
to acquire the land and develop the
airport would have to be made avail
able by Congress later in an appro-
priation bill. The measure also author
ICES $250,000 for construction Of An
express highway from Anacostia
Bridge to the airport.
May pointed out that passage of
the Washington Airport bill would
eliminate hazards at that landing
field while the other airport is being
developed out in the country.
In the CopelandMay bill the House
and Senate both voted to close Mill
tary road, but the House measure
would restrict the airport corporation
to 25-year lease of the road area,
while the Senate text transfers title
to the airport. The Senate bill in
cludes permission to I'LL the lagoon Of
Boundary Channel, subject, however,
to approval by the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission.
These various differences in detail
must be Nroned out in conference, but
it is believed this can be done without
undue delay.
