Postgres removes pg_xlog files automatically when they are no longer necessary. If it doesn't remove them, something is happening and you need to fix *that*.

You're screwed. You need to get a new base backup; all the files you have archived previous to 00000001000000350000006E are useless. You can get out of the problem by creating a dummy file with that name in pg_xlog, but keep in mind that the archive is now completely useless and unrecoverable.
