Bishop of the Roman Catho- lic diocese of Clsarlottetnwn and Chancellor of the University. “But do not. fall to accept and measure up to the responsibility it in- volves," he continued.

Competition and opposition wou‘d be met along any road chcsenthe sneaker reminded the graduates. "Beat your opponent, in the race if you can. bu do it squarely and fairl", never allowing any devious o.- dishonost method to lend you assistance." He quoted the well known statement “'f to thin-e own sslfL thou be but true it follows as the night the day tli-“u canst not th-Pn be false to any man."

Russian Foreign Oom- missar To Speak On Foreign Policies.

MJOSOOW. May 29 -(AP)- Unconfirmed reports of fighting between outer M0 olian troops

which are under can rol of Soviet Russia, and Japanese-Manchou- kuoan soldiers were received in Moscow tonight.

These accounts from the far cast preceded by s. few hours an announcement by Foreign Com- missar Vyacheslalf Molotoff that he would speak Wednesday cm foreign polio es.

It was taken for granted ‘he would speak on Great Britain's revised proposals for an Anglo- Frertch-Sovlst. pact.

Molotoff. who on May 3 suc- ceeded Maxlm Illtvinoff as head of ‘the ilzireig-n ministry, made his announcement when the supreme Soviet-J]. S. B. R. parliament- rose at the end or! tonight's ses- sion to inquire if he would address ti}; body on the intcmationalsitil- a on.

“If the members of the supreme soviet wish to hear me on this subject I will speak to them ‘Way 3i," he replied.

Many Airplanes

Many airplanes were said to have psrtic pated in the far east fighting. which Japanese circles in Moscow asserted had been un- der way since May l4 about 150 miles southwest of Merichull. in northwestern Manchoukuo. Soviet dual-tars declined t0 confirm the

Mystery Surrounds Actions

Foreign observers here are sc- customed to getting far eastern news indirectly and in fiiagmentary form-early reports of the Rus- slan-Ja-panese battles at. Chang- kuferig last year having come by way of Tokyo-ibut just. what was ging on in outer Mongolia admit-

dly was a mystery.

The situation was more complic- ated thdn at Changkufeng. the area at the junction of Siberian. Manchoukuoan and Korean bor- ders, since outer Mongolia: nomin- aly is an independent republic al- though closely allled to the Sov- iet union.

Moscow and Tokyo, however, al- ways have reacted quickly to any conflict developing between cuter Mongolia. which uses Soviet planes and munitions. and Manchoukuo. which always can count on Japan for guns. planes and troops.

. The possibility of border fight- lng developing into a maj flict is always present but what some observers hers are inclined to sec in the outer Mongolian clashes is "s demonstration" origin- atinir either in Tokyo or in Moscow.

Whether it be s move by ‘rokyo to warn the Soviet union riot to tie up too closely with Britain and France or whether the outer Morlgoliaris are demonstrating the need of closer Soviet-Fr-nch-Brit- ish cooperation in the far-cast is a point on which observers differ.
