By the Assoclated Press. ‘TOKIO, April 9.—Boggy Manchurian roads, softened knee deep by Spring thaws, have thrown the burden of the campaign to suppress rebels against the new Manchurian State upon the Jap- anese air force, press reports from Manchuria said today. It was understood Gen. Jiro Tamon's Japanese division, which went north- ward to block the rebel advance on Changchun, would be recalled to Har- bin and the task of strafing the rebels left to the airplanes from now on. The city of Sinhsin was in flames in several places, the reports sald. Some of the fires were ‘started by Japanese aerial bombs and some were set by Chinese troops before they fled north- eastward before the Japanese attacks. A strong protest was filed by the So- viet consul general at Harbin over the arrest of several Russian citizens on order of the new government. Police alleged the men arrested had plotted with Chinese Communists against the new regime. Several Japanese tanks and trucks left Changchun yesterday for the North to p & new threat of the forces of Gen. Li Maitsing, the rebel leader. Reports from Harbin said police in Eastern Kirin arrested a number of Chinese, including Communist organ- izers of Chinese Eastern Railway em- ployes, and charged them with a plot to undermine the Pu-Yi regime at Changchun. PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANIES ASSAILED Have Changed From Public Bene- factors to Social Menace, “Lib- eral” Experts Say. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, April 9.—Dissolution of public utility holding companies, & checkup on the cost of distributing electric power and closer co-operation between Federal and State regulating bodies were urged at a conference of flbenl" public utility experts yester- y. Prof. James C. Bonbright of Colum- bia University, secretary of the New York State Power Authority, said hold- ing companies had changed from public benefactors to “a great social menace.” He ascribed three reasons for the change: “Irrational consolidation, over- fancy, ciispe ang capitalization and uncontrolled service Ihitelous’ sidej o= charges.” s, “Normal growth,” he said, “has given way to glantism, with the result that a system such as the Electric Bond and Share or the Insull group must be regarded as an economic disease.” ‘The meeting was closed to the public with the explanation that speakers could not talk freely otherwise. Ex- cerpts of the speeches were handed to reporters.
