The senate is ripped already by dispute over the anti-lynching bill which must be faced this autumn and there is prospect of a first class filibuster by southern senators against it.

There was speculation on the extent to which the Japanese would seek to penetrate inland—particularly whether they would make an effort to ,go as far as Nanking, the national capital, which is 225 mil 's from the coast It was understood, however that the Japanese themselves did not know and that, as Gen.

It was reported that Matsui. in ’ the name of his government, might I offer peace terms as soon as the , Japanese reached Sooehow and ; then, if the terms were rejected, essay the Nanking campaign. The I Nanking march would be a threat over China's head. In token that they have their minds on Nanking, the Japanese sent an airplane fleet to bomb the capital again today. Nine planes pombed the Nanking arsenal and military airdrome. Here the situation was quiet but there were signs of increased Japanese determination to dominate th3 city.

CHALLENGES TO BLACK REFUSED Supreme Court Again Denies Challenge To Eligibility Washington, Nov. 15 (U.R) Associate Justice Hugo L. Black 1 today aligned himself again with , i the supreme courts’ liberal minor I Ity in a 6 to-3 decision involving it I technical interpretation of federal ; bankruptcy law. i At the same time the court dis j missed the two newest challenges! ito Black's eligibility. One was the I petition of a group oY Florida J broken for a rehearing of the ' court’s earlier refusal to review ! validity of the 1933 securities act. They sought the rehearing on the grounds that Black’s presence ngide all court actions invalid The other challenge was filed by 1 Llizalteth L. Seymour, of Salamanca. N. Y.. and Robert Gray Taylor, Media. Pa., who said he was chairman of the Philadelphia 1 court plan committee. They sought permission, as private citizens not members of the bar. to file formal suit for removal of Black’ from the bench. The decision resulted in a victory for the Chicago Title and | Trust company in its fight against . a financial reorganization plan for the forty-one thirty-six Wilcox Building Corporation, Chicago. The high tribunal's majority reversed a seventh circuit court of appeals ruling approving the re organization plan for the company, owner and operator of a building' at 4136 Wilcox avenue, Chicago. Black joined Justices Benjamin N. Cardozo and Harlan F. Stone in ' the dissent, written by Cardozo. It was the second time since he assumed his supreme court, post this fall that Black had aligned himself with a minority of liberal judges. His first appearance in the minority came last Monday when he joined with Cardozo. Stone and Louis D. Braudels on the short end of a 5-4 decision. Today’s case hinged around the • question of whether the building

corporation retained Its corporate existence after its dissolution. The majority, in an opinion by Justice George Sutherland, held p did not, with minority holding to tile contrary.
