Hartford. Conn, Dec. 5.-CUP)- Gov. Baldwin said today he had ordered an audit of the $25, 100000 building program which is being administered by Democratic Cover nor-elect Robert A. Hurley as state public works director. The audit he said, was being made by the Hart ford firm of Hatfield, Rothwell, Soule and Coates, which will submit its report to Hurley inasmuch as it will not be completed until after the commissioner is inaugurated as governor on Jan. 8.
 Hurley, he said, would incorporate the audit in his report to the gen. eral assembly on the status of the building program. The governor in- dicated the audit was not to be con- sidered as an investigation. Hur- ley, informed of the action, de- clared: This Is no investigation of my department. It is a routine audit to be based on certain completed dockets as requested by the governor and as public works director I shall cooperate"

Japan Has Just Signed Up With Chinese Puppet
 Govt She Created EFFORTS OF HITLER
 HAVE BEEN WASTED Japan Will Be Forced to Use Diplomacy to Gain
 Any FOOthOld
BY J. w. T. MASON United Press War Expert)

Announcement today at Moscow that Japan has been informed that there will be no change in Russia's policy toward China indicates can- cellation of Tokyo's expecta- tionS of making any agree ment with the Slavs of far reaching significance. Rela- tions between the two powers in the Orient thus must continue uncertain and disturbing to each.
 Efforts by Hitler to bring about a better Rslsso- Japanese understands ing show no signs of succeeding. The Russians have every reason to believe that the new triple alli- it's objectives; and they are too realistic to mistake potential ene- mics for friends.
 Stalin's notification to Japan that Sino-Russian relations remain as
 before follows signing of the new basic peace treaty between Wang Ching-Wei and the Japanese Rus Sia thus reaffirms her support of Chiang Kai-Shek, in opposition to the Japanese.
 Under the treaty Wang Ching Wei pledged the Nanking govern ment to oppose Communism. The Japanese have informed Moscow that no anti-Russian policy is in- volved in the anti-C Communist clause of the Chinese treaty; but Stalin can have no illusions about the matter.
 Russian Influence Spreads
 The spread of Russian influence in China cannot be severed from the spread of Communism. That is a difficult problem for Chiang Kai- it is more difficult for those Jap- anese who still hope for an advan- tageous agreement with the Rus- SianS.
 Any territorial concessions in the Orient to the Russians. such as have been rurnored from time to time, would formally stabilize communism in the conceded areas. Whatever brings Communism nearer to Jap- anese borders must cause disquietude among those who guide Japan's na- tional welfare, and thus serve as an obstacle to Japan's recognition of new Slav spheres of influence in China.
 Thus, Japan and Russia seem destined to remain antagonistic to each other, in so far as basic poli- cies are concerned, with little hope of fundamental adjustment. Each is entangled in rivalry more com plicated than Japan's troubles with western powers because Russia has her strong far eastern army always close to Japanese territory.
 Japan's friendships and antagon- isms in the west as now existing have no permanent foundation. They are temporary arrangements due to secondary causes. Many Jap anese believe they are antagonistic to Japan's long range interests.
 Diplomacy Must Act
 If the future shows that to be the case, Japan can readjust her western commitments by diplomatic means, without serious loss, even though that requires curtailing to some extent the ambitions of ex-
