Soviet attack on the railway, though
this correspondent saw 20 planes en-
gagged in a dog fight in the direction
Of Changkufeng.
Intensive ground fire, however,
downed one Soviet plane, and one
pilot was seen bailing out over Korean
territory.
The planes also bombed the high
way. Great holes caused by the ex-
plosions were seen by witnesses.
At pm, a Japanese Communique
said, IA Soviet bombers crossed the
Tumen River and bombed various
Korean villages.
japanese claimed to have shot down
two of them, but said they believed
their own losses were slight.
Japanese Army officers were highly
indignant at this unwarranted mani
festation of the Soviet's challenging
attitude" and the bombing of peace
full Korean villages" They declared
Soviet planes had made in all II ap-
pearances over Korea.
Artillery Attack Continues.
Meanwhile, heavy artillery lombard
ment that started at dawn continued
at the front through most of the
afternoon.
The Russians shelled Changkufeng
the disputed hill near the border, and
nearby Shuiliufeng Heights.
The shelling seemed to be prepara-
ton for large scale attempt to retake
positions along the 400-foot summit
between Lake Khassan and the Tumen
River.
One Russian battalion moved up to
the southeast end of Long Lake, be-
hind Changkufeng, where bitter
Soviet-Japanese fighting broke out
July 81, while two battalions with 40
tanks nearly had reached the north
east end.
Japanese messages from the front
reporting these developments also
said observations were hindered by
fog and that Japanese batteries some
times replied to the Russian shelling.
More Serious Incident Feared.
Japanese here emphasized that mo
matter how many times the Sov1etS
try to retake Changkufeng "a narrow
strip of land which Japanese-sup-
ported Manchukuo and Soviet Russia
both claim, our higher positions
make fianking us impossible" but if
they attempt again there is always
the possibility of making the present
minor and local incident into a much
bigger one"
The japanese said since July %
Soviet cannon had fired $4,000 shells
into japanese positions and the jap
anese had returned $500 shells while
the two forces zigzagged across the
disputed territory.

ny inc ASSOCltLcO fISSSs
Chairman Dies, Democrat, OF
Texas of the House Committee in
vestigating un-American activities
proposed yesterday that State in
corporation laws be invoked against
organizations raising class, racial
or religious hatred"
The committees investigator,
John c. Metcalfe, testified that 135
organizations had been reported to
be stirring up racial or religious
feeling. OF these, he said, "75 per
cent are pure rackets" established
to play upon the emotions Of the
people.
Representative Dies said he would
write to the Secretaries of State
and Attorneys General in every
State where American organiza-
tions have been reported.
Will Urge Legislation.
Il shall call upon them to en-
force any laws they may have re-
quiring annual reports from cor
porations," he said. IF they don't
have laws imposing such require
ment I shall urge that they enact
legislation to stop this pernicious
racketeering.
These organizations incorpor-
ate. hide behind the security OF in
corporation laws, and then don't
make reports. They either should
comply with the laws or should be
dissolved"
Mr.. Metcalfe said he had found
that "postmasters are unanimously
Of the opinion that the United
States mails should be closed to lit
erature of an anti-racial. anti-reli-
gious or revolutionary character"
Representative Dies suggested en-
actment of a Federal statute requir-
ing semi-annual reports from in
corporated organizations. the re-
ports to include lists Of contributors.
Anti Semitism on Rise.
The committee chairman said he
recently had received alarming re-
ports of a growing anti-Semitic
feeling in this country.
I'VE know" he said. that some of
the money for anti-Semitic propa-
ganda is coming from Germany.
But most of 1t is raised within the
United States
Investigator Metcalfe, under Dies
questioning, said:
There is rising tide Of anti
Semitism and anti-religious feeling
in this country. The wave of anti
Semitism is confined chiefly to the
larger cities The German American
Bund has tried and failed to get its
organization started in the South.
The people down there just aren't
interested in it,
Representative Dies told reporters
that several Government officials"
would testify before the committee
soon in secret meeting. He de-
clined to reveal the time of the
meeting or what would be discussed.

I. Y. A. Competition
With Fertilizer
Firms Charged
Assumes Agriculture
Department Functions,
Says Legislator
BY the Associated Press.


Representative jenkins. Repub-
lican, of Ohio accused the T. V. A.
yesterday of attempting to compete
with the private commercial fer
tilizer industry and encroaching on
the sphere of the Federal Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Representative jenkins, member
Of the Congressional Committee in
vestigating the Governments Ten
nessee Valley development, made
these charges after Dean Thomas P.
Cooper of Kentucky University had
lauded agricultural cooperation of
T. v. A. with land grant colleges in
seven Southern States.
Dean Cooper told the committee
that T. v. AS development Of triple
super phosphate production through
an electric blast furnace process had
benefited farmers throughout the
United States.
Representative jenkins disputed
this by questions and asserted that
agricultural functions Of T. v. A.
should be handled by the Agricul-
ture Department.. while fertilizer
production and distribution should
be left in the hands Of the present
private industry.
Forecast Declined.
Saying he was something OF a
farmer myself" the Ohio Repre-
sentative asked Mr.. Cooper. dean of
agriculture at Kentucky University,
whether he thought big rich States
like Illinois will set up their own
fertilizer plants to give fertilizer to
farmers, or the private commercial
industry will use T. v. A. methodist
The Kentuckian declined to fore
cast fertilized developments.
Dean Cooper said T. v. A. had dis
tributed more than $4,000 tons of
fertilizer for agricultural expert
ments and detailed T. v. A. cooper
alton with the agricultural colleges
and experiment stations in Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Virginia. North
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and
Mississippi.
Francis Biddle. committee counsel,
informed the committee that the
T. A. phosphate extraction process
made possible development Of large
phosphate supplies in many Western
States.
Representative jenkins contended
that chief benefactors of T. v. A.
fertilizer experiments were farmers
in the Tennessee Valley area.
Kellogg Returns to Stand.
Mr.. Biddle recalled C. w. Kellogg
president of the Edison Electric In
stitute, to the stand briefly to pro-
test that the utility spokesman had
furnished reporters an advance copy
of his testimony and failed to pro-
vide these for committee members
and counsel.
Mr.. Biddle implied this was a
discourtesy.
Mr.. Kellogg explained his pre-
pared statement for the press was
a usual method" for aid news
papermen and he had mo idea OF
circumventing the committee
The utility leader had not COM
pleted his criticism of T. Y. A. rates
as a "yardstick" for the private
power industry. and assured Mr..
Biddle the committee could have
as many copies of the statement as
it wished.
Mr.. Biddle told Mr.. Kellogg and
other utility witnesses, including
Wendell Willkie, president of the
Commonwealth & Southern Co.,
they could resume testimony Tues
day. He said a group Of farm or
ganization leaders would appear at
tomorroWs hearing.
