Japanese anger.
Workers gathered in the big
collective industrial plants Of the
Moscow area to pass bitter resolu-
tons. Their attitude was in sharp
contrast to the official description
of the governments "calm and
collected" position.
The Japanese foreign office at
Tokyo today at noon announced
that more than two battalions OF
Soviet infantry at Z a. m. today
raided Changkufeng and Shatsa-
oping in the disputed area on
the Observation-Disclosures frontier
where bitter fitting has been IN
progress since Sunday.
Thousands of japanese and So
Wet soldiers, supported by air
planes, tanks and artillery, were
locked in a series of sporadic bat
ties in the Possiet Bay area, $50
miles south of the great fortihed
Russian port of Vladivostok,
where the borders of Japan's 10

DEPLORES KENTUCKY
POLITICAL TACTICS

have been active i'll Mrs. Cara
ways behalf.
Meantime, an inquiry into
charges that federal road aid
funds were miSuSed to aid the
senatorial candidacy of Represen-
tative Scott Lucas, Democrat, IN
the recent Illinois primary, did
not develop sufficient proof for
committee action, Sheppard said.
He added he would turn over to
one of six committee agents at
work in Tennessee u compliant
regarding an attack on Edward
w. Carmack of Murfreesboro,
who was forced by his injuries to
withdraw from the senatorial
contest. Eight Murfreesboro citi-
Zens signed the telegram asking
for an inquiry into the assault.
Sheppard plainly showed his
concern over the evidence gather
ed in Kentucky, although he de-
clined to compare the situation
with the gutter politics" which
he said earlier in the week had
marked the Tennessee campaign.
He said he was prepared to send
several more Investigators to aid
Burton if he asks for help.
Charges that relief workers
were being coerced or inundated
by works progress administration
supervisors, into aiding Barkley'S
campaign were made by Chand-
ler's managers before President
Roosevelt visited the state and
alphabetically urged reelection of
his senate leader. Barley coun-
tered with charges that Chandler
and his state machine manipulate
ed old age pension aid and unem-
ployment compensation checks to
further his candidacy.
WPA Administrator Harry l..
Hopkins denied allegations Of co
ercion of WPA workers or of un-
usual activity by supervisors in
Barkley's behalf. In reply to u
committee questionable, Chand-
Ter reported that no public funds
had been used with his knowl-
edge or consent" to further his
candidacy. Barley made SINH
lar denial.
Yesterday, however, the com
mittee said contributions have
been sought and obtained from
federal employees, in behalf Of
one of the senatorial candidates.
Since Chandler has no control
over federal patronage, this was
an obvious reference to Barley.
The committee then stated it is
equally certain that state officials
charged with distribution of fed
eral funds for old-age assistance
and for unemployment cOmpensa-
ton have been required to con-
tribute from their salaries and
services in the interest of another
candidate for the U. S. senate"
This was an equally obvious
reference to Chandler.
"These facts should arouse the
conscience of the country" Shep-
pard said. They imperial the
right of the people to free and
unpolluted ballot. The evidence
thus far presented to it's con-
vinces the committee that de-
plorable situation exists in Ken
lucky"

major inquiry into business condi-
tions. particularly those affecting
antitrust problems.
White House aides reported that
hundreds of messages and tele-
phone calls had been received on
the congressional message and de-
Scribed these as almost entirely fa-
vorable in tone.
The aides said that they had not
ed only one unfavorable communi-
cation and declared they could
not recall a more favorable and
spontaneous reaction to a preSiden-
tial utterance.
A presidential friend pointed out
that Mr.. Roosevelt's Jackson day
speech Saturday night will be his
first public utterance following de-
livery of the congressional message
and indicated its content may be
dictated largely by the reaction to
yesterdays speech.
Tomorrow congress will receive
Mr.. Roosevelt's annual budget and
communication to congress. it was
said probably will be an appeal
for a larger navy and later Mr.
Roosevelt plans to propose anti
trust legislation.
Presidential friends described the
president as feeling he is leading
fight for an overwhelming ma
jority of businessmen. This major
ity was pictured by Roosevelt
friends as being squeezed from the
top by minority of less than 1OC
huge corporations which produce
IS per cent of the nations consum-
able goods. At the same time the
majority of business is squeezed
from the bottom, the friends de-
clared, by fringe of "chiselers who
operate sweatshops and engage in
other forms of uncontrolled compe-
tition."
