Continued border fighting between large forces of Japanese and Rus sian troops have caused world feel ings and fears of a new war
 The Moscow Government threw on the shoulders of Japan the re- sponsibility of further conflict on the Siberian Border even as she warned of possible serious conse- quences" if Japanese provocations continued there and indications of Japanese wishes to reach a peace ful settlement.
 Soviet Intentions
 The Soviet Communique, issued by TAS, official Russian News Agency, declared that since the very beginning of the conflict the Soviet Government has declared that it intends only to defend ter ritory indisputably belonging to the Soviet Union.
 The official communique also re- calls that the Soviet Government indicated a willingness to re-de1lne the boundary in separation of Si- beria from Japanese-Korea and Japanese protected Manchoukuo.
 Japanese Hopes
 The Japanese Foreign Office spokesman in Tokyo said Japan hoped to localize trouble and set tie it by diplomatic steps but the presence of large forces on the frontier area however indicated that the battle which began last Sunday might be merely prelude to major operations and real war
 Great Array on Front
 Advices from the latest front indicate large forces are lined up along the border, including infan- try, tank and airplane corps.

 Senator Lewis was first elected to public office in the state of Washington 40 years ago. Political leaders always depended upon him as loyal Party man.

OOMIAK VOYAGE
 ENDED, FATHER
 HUBBARD PARTY
Drift Ice Stops Eastern Trip Is Returning Now
 to King Island

POINT BARROW, Alaska, Aug. 3 The Rev. B. R. Hubbard returned here today after a short voyage to the East where he was halted in his oomlak cruise by drift ice, and started south immediately.
 Father Hubbard said the objec- tives of his trip had been complete ly attained and that he had wanted to prove the feasibility of migra- ton from Asia during prehistoric times in native oomiaks.
 The glacier priest also said he wanted to check the similarity ot the Eskimo language between wesc- ern and eastern tribes. He said his King Island Eskimo companions understood eastern Eskimos per- fectly, and proves thus, that Eski- mos from Greenland to Siberia are one people.
 The Rev. Hubbard, Ken Chisholm and Ed Levin, and six native hun ters, made the oomiak trip of more than 1000 miles in a large native walrus hide craft propelled by an outbord motor, paddles and sails.
 The glacier priest said sea action is exposing Stone Age village sites at Point Barrow. He collected nu- merous articles here and is return ing now to King Island.

Treasury Regulations Are Being Ducked by American
 Importers of German Goods
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3-Ameri- can importers of German goods have discovered a way to duck Treasury regulations intended to counteract German subsidies. More over, the Treasury hasn't yet found a way to block it.
 Two years ago Germany was sub sidizing it's exports to the United States with such carefree abandon that a mile high tariff wall was put up against it. Here is how that business worked:
 Germany paid interest on it's eX- tensive debts to U. s. investors, half in free currency and half in script to be redeemed at some in definite future date. In turn, the German Conversion bank offered to buy up this script at half value. That, together with the 50 percent paid in cash, gave Americans 75 percent of the cash value of their interest coupons. They were glad to get even 75 percent, such was the uncertainty.
 Next step was for the German government to use this 25 percent profit" on the deal to help export CTS finance foreign sales. It was all done under strict regulation and the export bounty was allowed only to exporters of German goods which were having tough competition on world markets.

Party Groups Divide Hon. ors Tn Mis- souri and
 Kansas Elections

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Roose- welt packers and anti-administra- tion packers divided Democratic honors yesterday in four primary elections.
 Senator Bennett Champ Clark of Missouri, foe of the court bill and other White House measures, won a landslide renomination and so did Senator George McGill of Kan sas, loyal follower of the President.
 Their victories were not unex- pected, however, for both had the active backing of the state party organizations. President Roosevelt had taken no part in either race.
 The same division extended to nominations for House seats in two other States. Three West Virginia representatives who supported the President defeated their opponents but in Virginia two avowed New Dealers lost out.
 INCP. iloWdio oiiiluii VI VII Shiid, who district includes the home towns of Washington and Jefferson, won three to one victory over William Dodd, Jr., son of the form CT Ambassador to Germany. The vote was Smith, 19,OOO; Dodd, 6,500.
 Smith was on the blacklist of Iabor's partisan league and CIO, but led two to one in Alex andria, home of John l.. Lewis, head of CIO.
 The only other Virginia House race was much closer. Rep. Norman Hamilton, calling himself pro- -Roose- welt despite his vote against the government reorganization bill, lost by about 1,500 votes to former Rep. Colgate Darden, who was backed by Senator Richard Byrd's organ ization.
 In the Republican primaries, the greatest interest was shown in the Kansas Senatorial race because of campaign charges that one of the four candidates, the Rev. Gerald Winrod, was pro-Nazi Winrod, who denied the accusation, ran third. The nomination went to former Go. Clyde Reed. The count for half

 The War Departments infor- maticn is that a Russian divis- ion is l4,000 officers and men, so six Divisions would mean more than 84,000 or more, and presum- ably a comparable number of Japanese are facing the SOviets.

Million Dollar Rain Hits

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Aug. B. A Million Dollar rain has fallen in the Interior and mining camps are again booming. The drought, which hampered placer gold operations, has been relieved.
 The total rainfall since last Sat urday has been one and three-quar- ters inches.
 Many men laid off earlier in the season because of lack of water are again back working.

HOW IT WORKED

It was a neat way of making Am erican holders of German bonds pay for a subsidy on German exports to the U s. For example:
 An American cotton exporter would ship cotton to Germany. He would be paid in blocked marks A German exporter would give him dollars for the marks and send him on his way rejoicing. The German exporter then would go to the German Conversion bank and explain that he could buy German cameras or tableware to sell in America if given a subsidy to help him match American prices.
 If he had a nice, clean Aryan face and the deal promised to bring much needed foreign ex- change to Germany, he would be given the subsidy and so could buy German goods to ship to the U. s.
 It worked so well that in no time American manufacturers beg n protesting at such competition and the Treasury took steps. The At torney General upheld a Treasury plan to impose a tariff to offset these subsidies. It ranged from 22ik percent on tableware to 45 percent on cameras and 56 percent on surgical instruments.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. - Louis Johnson, Assistant Secre- tary of War, says he is leaving about the middle of this month on an aerial inspection trip to Alaska to study the projected Seattle to Fairbanks highway. generally known as the Inter national Highway, and also study the projected establish ment of an Army Air Base in Alaska.
 Fairbanks IS the logical loca- tiOn for the Army Air Base since less fogbound than other areas" said Johnson.
 The flight survey and the proposed highway have assumed added importance since Premier Pattullo of British Columbia, has recently been in Washing ton negotiating for American aid to construct the highway to Alaska through British Colum- bia and the Yukon Territory.
 Secretary of Interior Harold l.. Ickes. now enroute to Alaska, recently expressed hope the highway will be built.
 Interested officials have dis cussed the possibility of using the American Public Works funds and possibly American labor for construction of the proposed highway.

I was really surprised, and asked why he had so

And his reply was: ''Well, mother, Jones is at

I tried to get that boy back!
Now if those boys who take good food and
