We also want to say explicltely that we are determined to fight to the bitter end until China reconsiders her attitude drastically and alters her anti-Japapeee policy. We will, therefore, unswervingly and unflinchingly—tithough we regret—pursue our I settled policy. "If any power wants to mediate i it must first acquire full apprecia-| tion of our aims and aspiratiwis. We think the setting up of an inter- i

national committee, or the calling of a conference of Pacific powers, to deal with the Chinese-Japanese conflict is not opportune, to cay the least, at the present juncture. "If the proposed ounmlttee or conference were to show as complete lack of appreciation of the realities of the actual situation as was manifested by the recent denunciation of Japanese aviation by | I the League of Nations advisory I committee, we must say that all efi forts at conciliation are bound to ■ | be futile. "Such steps, taken on the basis of tendencioue news, would but

make more difficult a constructive and 'asting settlement, for which we all hope. "Jmpan is not het on destroying i China but on doing away with elements which are disrupting peace These elements have today allied • themselves with the greatest element of world perturbation, the communists. "Japan w«es not alm at making China dependent solely on Japan. She does not want her territory. She wants her cooperation in order 1 to bring about a new era of fruitful development and constructive prosperity which wil Ibenefit not only China and Japan and all counI tries to pursue business freej >y-” Cruiser In Danger Shanghai. Oct. I—(UP) — The ' United States cruiser Augusta was in line c. fire again today as Chin- , ese airplanes bombed the vic’nity of 1 'Japanese airports at Yangtxepoo. | across the Whangpoo river from the city. The planes drew a Ib-minute fur- ; ious anti-aircraft fire, which sent Uhe sailors on the Augusta scrambi ling below decks from their movie | show. Heavy fighting continued north I of the city. Japanese infantrymen smashed i rhrough the Chinese lines at two {points on the front north of ShangI hai today. A Japanese spokesman , asserted. Advancing from Loiten, a key point. Japanese suicide squads tun- . nelled up to Chinese machine gun ooxes and blew them up with mines. I TUbn the infantry went over.

He put ) them as follows: Chinese — 20.000 killed, 35,000 • wounded. Japantwe — 1,893 killed. 5,6.17 wounded. This total, however, excludes the ! heavy casualties suffered by the i Japanese navy, he said —and the navy, which did all the fighting in ' the earlylstages of the battle, is still , In the lines. o JUSTICE BLACK (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) be moved out to allow space for I the radio apparatus." She said there would only be room for a few associates of Black to witness the broadcast. "We probably can seat seven or eight people in the living room,” she said, “but there won’t be room for any more.” So well guarded were Black's ( movements that not until late last night was it learned that he had ‘ worked on the final draft all day and most of the evening at the offices of the reconstruction finance corporation in downtown Washington where Mrs. Black's 1 brother-in-law. Clifford J. Durr, is

, employed as an attorney. >| It was believed that in addition i to Durr, other close friends associated with the administration were assisting Black in the pre paration of the unprecedented document. It was considered more t than likely that the justice would return to the RFC offices today to make any last minute revisions. As the scheduled hour for the address neared, millions throughout the nation and world speculated over what answer Black will make to the allegations. Capital observers, convinced that Black will give a direct answer to the charges published while he was 1 vacationing in Europe, were agreed that probably, in effect, he 1 would make one of three statements: 1. That he does belong to the klan by virtue of a life membership "pass." 2. That he does not belong now. and never did 3. That he does not belong now but did at one time. These observers also believed that whichever answer Black made he also would cite his record in national affairs since election as j a senator in 1926 to refute charges that he is unfit to serve as a member of the nation's court of last resort. Meanwhile it was denied that Black had conferred with Presi-! dent Roosevelt in the far west by telephone before deciding to give his answer to the people by radio. Associates of Black, and Marvin Mclntyre. White House secretary, said that the president had not talked with Black since Black's return. Expect Resolution Kansas City. Mo., Oct. I—(U.R1 —(U.R) — The question of an investigation by the American Bar association •of the supreme court appointment of Justice Hugo L. Black still simmered today but the fire that kept ; it at boiling point all week appar-, i ently was burning out. The resolutions committee which rejected the proposal for an investigation only to have the general assembly sent it back tor further study, is expected to report a modified resolution this afternoonwhich will call for public hearings on judicial appointments but sidestep the Black issue. This is the resolution suggested yesterday from the floor by Lessing Rosenthal. Chicago, as a substitute for the resolution of Robert Lee Tullis of Baton Rogue. La. The latter's measure called for definite disapproval of the appointment of judges and justices who hold membership in oathbound organizations of anti-racial and religious principles.
