By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, November 5.—Russia again has asked the Japanese gov- ernment to discuss officially & border patrol clash between Soviet and Jap- | anese - Manchukuoan soldiers last month. The Soviet Ambassador delivered a second note to the Japanese foreign | office, repeating an offer to set up a | mixed commission to investigate the incident. Prolonged discussion “must cast an influence on relations between the U. S. 8. R. and Japan,” said the note. Japanese Foreign Minister Hirota, after receipt of the first note, pre- sented a memorandum on October 25 to the Soviet Ambassador denying the Japanese government was involved. It sald the protest should have been directed to the Manchukuoan gov- ermnment. o Soviet authorities expressed ‘“sur- prise” in the second note at the Jap- anese action. They said that inas- much as the Jspsnest- have taken responsibility for “military protec- | tion” of Manchukuo, they should not decline to answer the first protest directly. Japanese as well as Manchukuoan soldiers were involved in the clash, the Soviet officials declared One Soviet officer was killed and | another officer and soldier wounded in the encounter, NAMES OF FILM STARS TOP MAGAZINE FEATURE Lillian and Dorothy Gish Lead!
