QUICK DENIAL OF ALARMING
REPORTS
Moscow. To-day. Alarming reports that So- viel troops shot down six Ja- panese aeroplanes on the So viet-Manchuria border, on No- vember 3, and that two Ja- panese warships have been sunk in Soviet waters near Kamchatka, are emphatically denied by the official Soviet "Tass" news agency.
Both reports are declared to be "absolute inventions."
This is the second official Soviet denial of incidents dur- ing the week-end. A Japanese newspaper report stating that 200 Manchurian citizens were massacred by Soviet soldiers at Patrovskoe following non- payment of grain tax, was on Saturday described as a·' "blan- derous statement."-Reuter.
