(A. P. by Guardian's Special Wire) FAIRBANKS, Alaska, July l3- The Howard Hughes round-the- world aerial expedition dashed southward touiard Canada tonight after a brief refueling stop hare.

Apparently pleased at success thus far in his attempt to set a globe-glrdllng record, Hughes was happy and smiling as he and his four com ions took off at 10:36 P. m. AD -one hour and. 18 min- utes after landing here at the end of 2.456-mile hop from Yakutsk. Siberia.

Before the takeoff radio en- gineer Richard Stoddard said the fliers coufild not take fuel enough foo‘ the ,3B0-mile hop to New York. Mid Dwblbly would refuel 2.2111113011100000. Winnipeg or st.

"Hitherto we always have made Dfllieiis to the Bvurgvs authorities where a. vessel lying by itself has as such been subject no deliberate attack, usually by low flying air- craft, said Mr. Chamberlain. dis- closing a new note from the Insur- gent General insisted British ships laifid not been attacked intention- y.

“An attack on an isolated vessel must of its nature be deliberate, particularly in those instances wliere thc vessel has been recon- ncitred previous to being bombed and has been machme-gunned af- terward." the Prime Minister said. _ He reiterated, however, that Brit- ish ships trading in the war bone must accept their own risks.

Instead of the international com- mission to investigate civilian bombings, _he said, Britain would send a mission of two men. ‘The Unlled States, France, Norway, Snlccicn and later the Netherlands had been asked to put representa- tives on the commission. The Unit- ed States, however, refused to Join llfld Sweden wok similar action. The Netherlands‘ acceptance was provisional,

W. s. Morrison, minister of agri- culture reported the gloss annual value of United Kingdom agricul- ture was 85.150.030.000 and greater than that o. any dominion. Among increases over war time production which he ci.ed were apples, meat, milk and eggs.

(By The Associated Press)

SHANGHAI, July llt-(Thursday) —Midsummer heat above 100 de- grees caused a lull today in the Japanese army's drive up the Yangtse River toward Hankow. China's provisional capital.

A stubborn Chinese defence still held the Japanese beyond gun range of Kiuklang, their immediate objective 36 miles below l-lankow. Communiques were devoted chiefly to air raids and guerrilla fighting.

As the Yangtse Valley conflict went into its 12th month-fighting began at Shanghai Aug. l3, five weelgr, later than in North China- the Japanese had fought their way 450 miles up the great river through China's heart.

They had fought not only dog- ged Chinese resistance. but also floods. the Chinese "scorched earth" policy. mlerrilla attacks and

heat.

While the tired soldiers sought rest in the heat. Chinese reported anti-aircraft guns shot down nine Japanese bombers near Nanchang. Chinese air base 100 miles south of Kiukiang. Chinese sources said the Japanese raid Tuesday on Wu- chum. across the river from Han- kow. resulted in 600 casualties and destruction of more than 100 houses.
