Britain S Production
Of Planes Reported
Exceeding Reich's
Strength Of 'First-Line'
Worcroft on Hand
Not Yet Matched
BY the Associated Press,

LONDON, June 27.-Britains
monthly warplane production

pean conflict has surpassed Ger

placed in cold storage" in under
ground warehouses, a confidential
source close to the air ministry said
today.
The actual number of planes roll
Ing of the assembly lines had been
expected to exceed production in
Germany in late May or early June.
That point was said to have been
reached in fact in April.
What the turnout of planes is
remains problematical. Britain is
spending $4,000, 900 a week on plane
production. Germany's rate has
been estimated as high as 10000
warplanes yearly, but neutral OBJ
servers are inclined to believe the
figure should be 5000 or 5000.
1t cannot be said that Britains

March that Britain had 2,75O planes
ready for combat.
But factory production in Britain
plus accelerated manufacture in
France, would indicate a state of
preparedness by the two nations
which goes beyond the impression
conveyed in daily reports.
The British genius for under

necessity for military secrecy have

cation and production of factories
The British have taken precau-
lions to guard against the yulner-
ability OF aircraft factories as ex-

tlons OF these isles will allow.
Whatever part air power would
nave in a European war, a visitor
gathers the impression that Britain
now is cognizant of its possibilities
after period of years in which it,
tie or no attention was devoted to
air armament.

Hot Firm Is Fined
Under Woqe-Hour Act

The first conviction on complaint
OF the Wage and Hour Division of
the Labor Department for failure to
keep adequate records was obtained
yesterday in Federal Court at Bos-
ton. it was announced here today.
For failing to record the hours
worked and wages paid to employees,
Sussex Hats, Inc, was fined $1,000
and its treasurer, William Wolfe,
was assessed $500.
The firm, employing about 300
workers, is located in Holyoke, Mass.

BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD.

A struggle for prestige and the
allegiance of Mongolian chieftains
whose loyalty is yet uncertain, was
believed by informed observers here
today to lie behind the current fierce
fighting between Russian-Mongolian
and Japanese sponsored troops
along the western border of Outer
Mongolia.
One observer, long familiar with
the Far East, expressed the opinion
that this Russo-Japanese fighting
was "far more significant than the
trouble at Tientsin." Domination
of Mongolia, he explained, would
give Japan an open road to the
Lake Baikal section of Russia, the
conquest of which would mean un-
disputed sway over Asia.
Because the scene of the recent
Russian-Japanese combats is so far
removed from large cities and be-
cause communications there are
Backward American officials have
little precise knowledge of the mill
tary situation. Reports of air bat
ties and ground movements involv-
ing hundreds of tanks indicate the
present struggle is on much larger
scale than the former ones which
have been reported periodically over
the last five years.
Virtually all information is COM
ing either from Moscow or from
Toxic and is highly colored with
propaganda. japanese and Russian
reports of the same battles vary
widely, each side always claiming
victory for its own troops. Conse-
quently, it is difficult for neutral OBJ
servers to form any clear opinion OF
the real course of events.
Regular Officers Involved.
What does seem apparent, how
ever, is that both Russian and Japa-
nese regular officers are taking part
in the engagements Thus they are
more significant politically than the
usual border skirmishes between
Manchukuoan troops and those of
the Mongolian Peoples Republic.
The fighting amounts, in effect, to
an indirect war between Japan and
Russia.
The so-called autonomous govern
ment of Mongolia, closely bound to
Manchukuo and ruled nominally by
Price Teh, a Mongolian chief, is in
every sense a Japanese vassal state.
Its troops use japanese equipment
and are trained by Japanese officers.
To the same extent the Mongo-
liam Peoples Republic (Outer Mon
golia)e is controlled by the Soviet
Union. The airplanes which have
figured in the recent fighting are
Soviet planes, some of them piloted
by Russian officers. The Mongolian
Army is trained by the Red Army.
Soviet political domination of this
backward land has been virtually
complete since 1921, when Red SOL
dlers, invading the ancient Mongol
stronghold to battle the White Rus
sian general, Baron Ungern- Stern
berg, aided in the establishment of
Soviet-type government.
In 1887 the political relations be-
tween Russia and Outer Mongolia
were solidifled even further by the
conclusion of a military alliance.
No Definite Boundary.
Although the division of the vast
Monaghan tableland between Jap
aneSe and Russian spheres of in
fiuence seems sharply defined, ex-
perts say, this division is more ap-
parent than real. The borders sep
arating Inner and Outer Mongolia
are far from definite, never having
been scientifically marked, and this
uncertainty is largely responsible for
the frequent clashes between natrols

Britain and India Accent
Cotton Farley Invitations
By the Associated Press

LONDON, June 27.-The govern
ment announced today that Britain
and India had notified the United
states they were willing to par
ticlpate in world cotton marketing
conference in Washington next
September if other major cotton
producing countries were repre-
sented.
r. E. Butler, undersecretary for
foreign affairs, told the House of
Commons that the government of
the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan also had
indicated its willingness to send
a representative.
A Cairo dispatch said it was un-
derstood that the Egyptian Minister
to Washington had been instructed
to inform the United States that
Egypt was ready to send delegates
to the cotton conference.

French Engineers 10 Help,
Turks Build Defenses

PARIS, June 27.-French engi-
neers who helped construct the
Maginot Line of Notifications fac
ing Germany are to be sent to
Turkey to advise the Turkish gov
ernment on strengthening defenses
on the northern shores of the Dar-

The work of fortifying the harbor
OF Alexandretta also was expected
to begin soon after the formal trans
fer of the former sanjak of Alexan-
dretta, Syria, to Turkey by France,
probably July %.
1t was said that Turkey planned
to convert the Gulf of Alexandretta
into a big naval and air base Sec
ond only to Smyrna in the Turkish

new Notifications were expected to
come from a loan Great Britain
advanced to Turkey for rearma-

DoIodier Spikes Hopes
For OId-Age Pensions

establishing government old-age
pensions today when he told the

Byrd Says Spending
Policies Repudiate
Roosevelt Pledges
Senator Makes Charge
In Reply to Letter
From EccIes
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Byrd, Democrat, Of Vir-
ginia asserted last night that Pres
ident Roosevelt had adopted"
spending theories of Mariner S.
Eccles, chairman of the Federal
Reserve Board, in direct repudia-
ton" of the past pledges by the
President and the last two Demo-
cratic party platforms.
The Virginia Democrat, a foe of
many Roosevelt policies, made his
charge in letter replying to a pre-
vious open letter from Mr.. Eccles.
The Reserve Board chairman had
criticized a Boston address in which
Senator Byrd advocated an end to
deficit financing.
Senator Byrd said Mr.. Eccles con-
tended the budget could be bal
anced only by restoring national in
come and proposed to restore it by
still greater pump-priming," which
involved still greater national
debt.
1896 Statement Recalled.
What you advocate" he added,
is direct reputation of the Dem
ocratic platforms of 1882 and 1886,
the economy and Notwithstanding
messages and pledges Of the Presi-
dent of the United States, the Sec
retary of the Treasury and other
official spokesmen, including your
self"
The Virginia Senator recalled that
in 1885 President Roosevelt told
Congress-:
"'We should plan to have a def
nitely balanced budget in the third
year of the recovery and from that
time on to ask a continuing reduc-
ton of the national debt"
Senator Byrd then set out his own
arguments for a balanced budget
and attacked Mr.. Eccles' theories
in an 8,0OO-word letter, which con-
cluded with the warning:
II will later discuss these issues
more fully on the Senate floor"
In the course of these arguments
he asserted, "A public debt created
Evening star., 1939-01-16

and by freeing the enterprise Of .
great people who want jobs, not
charity; work, not taxes.
II emphatically repudiate your
doctrine that debt for its own
sake is good. that deficits for their
own sake are good, and that an
expansion Of bank credit for the
purpose OF financing deficits is
good"
At the outset Of his letter, the
Virginian chided Mr.. Eccles for the
latter's description Of Senator
Byrd's speech at Boston on Decem-
ber 10 as an "attack" on the Gov
ernment.
"If," Senator Byrd wrote, IT at
tackled the Government in that
speech I did not know 1t.
But to tell you the truth, I did not
KNOW did not even suspect-that
you and the Government were one
and the same"
Evening star., 1939-01-16

to continue to gamble with the dis
credited theory Of pump priming Is
an evil"
Main Issues Defined.
"Stripped to the bone," he added,
"the main issues between you and
me relate to taxes and debts. You
think the Government can 'pur-
chase prosperity on borrowed
money. I think that genuine pros
perity must come from the pro-
ductive industry Of the citizens Of
our Republic"
Senator Byrd contended that "for
every dollar the Government bor-
rows and spends in pump priming,
private enterprise is deferred from
spending two"
you appear to think" he said,
that public appropriations can be
turned of and on like spigot.
that when the national income in
creases you turn the spigot off and
when it declines you turn it on.
Nothing could be farther from the
practical facts.
These vast sums are spent by
gigantic Government bureaus reach
ing into every nook and corner and
manner by politicians of influence. ;"
1t would be impossible, he added,
to manipulate expenditures up and
down with income and at the same
time satisfy the 48 States and 1000
communities"
Spending Firmly Entrenched.
Senator Byrd contended that when
the Government borrowed instead
of taxing, a check on spending was
removed because taxpayers we're
not directly conscious Of burdens to
be imposed on them later and there
fore not inclined to protest.
Public spending has become
firmly entrenched in every nook and
corner of America" Senator Byrd
asserted. Government extrav-
agance has become habitual. The
Nation faces the danger of greater
and larger spending. Haven't we
paid pretty heavily for a $20,00O,-
000, 900 increase in the national in
come which you say did not come
from natural forces and is there
for artificial?"
The Senator suggested that If Mr..
Eccles was right in contending a
Federal deficit was needed to put
new capital at work, 1t might be
achieved as readily by granting a
holiday on all taxes.
Il want to get business prosperity
restored" he added, mot by
financial manipulating on the part
of the Government but by restor-
ing confidence on the part of the
business community in the fairness
of the Government, by eliminating
needless frictions and restraints
