SOVIET PLAN

FOR FUTURE OF JAPAN REJECTED BY U.S.

Washington, Nov. 11.--The United States yesterday rejected a bid by Soviet Russia for a stronger voice in shaping Japan's future. The U.S. also rejected Russia's allegation to the Far Eastern Commission that the U.S. is rebuilding Japan's Yokosuka naval base.

Major General Frank R. McCoy, American spokes- man on the 11 nation Far Eastern Commission, said the Russians had urged a new system of international con- formal trols which would extend beyond signing of a peace with Japan.

Peining, Nov. 12.- Victorious Red armies in Manchuria are preparing for fresh conquests. In the ordinary course of events it should take at least several weeks before they are in a position to mount a new offensive. But it is possible that the Reds might strike soon to take advantage of factors in their favour.

These include low morale among Nationalist troops and the fact that North Chinn commander Fu Tso-yt is still gravely short of the weapons he nectis,
