For Snopshooters

For instance, the effective picture
shown here is really simple - a toy
boat and two toy figures. piece of
cellulose sheeting. some black paper
and odds and ends of cloth. string. etc.
An excellent moon can be made by
cutting circle in black paper, pasting
tissue paper over a hole and placing
a light behind it. With two of the
larger-sized photoflood lamps. snap
shot exposures can be given with
single-lens box cameras. For simple
spotlight, cut a two-inch circle in a
sheet of cardboard and hold it some
distance in front of the photOf1ood lamp.
Tabletop snapshooting makes
splendid ''hobby-within-a-hobby" to
while away many a long winter eve
ming and the results will be real ad-
dition to your album collection.
The Snopshoofsr ASKS:
Question: When shooting against the

 LEADER IS DEAD

Huntington, w. Va, Nov. 15- (UP)-Dr. James I. Seder, 79, for mer minister and dry leader, died today of pneumonia which devel- oped after he had been kidnapped by three men Nov. 1 and held cap- tive in an abandoned coal mine for Il days. Dr. Seder, whose condition suddenly became worse Saturday, died at 5:15 a. m. Contributing to his death, according to Dr. A. K.

NEW DEAL OPENS
 UP FOR BRAZIL

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, Nov. 15-
 (UP)-President Getulio Vargas offered Brazil "New Deal" today by planning @ series of economic and industrial measures that pos- sibly may include creation of a new central bank, Q new defense pro- gram and consideration of foreign debts. Vargas said that the United States merited special consideration but did not specify whether or not he intended eventually to seek United States aid in drawing up 8 new plan for paying foreign debts. Vargas contemplated large pur- chases of railroad equipment abroad in the near future. The in- dustrial program would welcome the aid of foreign capital, he added.
 The work of reforming the coun- try's credit system already was started and was expected to be completed within a sort time. Var gas indicated that the campaign against Communism would be strengthened. A new and perma- nent defense organization also will be built up, Vargas indicated. The minister of marine, meanwhile, arl- nounced that the keel of a new mine vessel would be laid down shortly and that plans for the construction of other warships also would be discussed soon.

NOuCLnueQ rom rage l) which has been conducted for sev- eral weeks to inform the nation of the purposes and plans of the cen- SuS.
 Tomorrow the post ofice depart ment will distribute to every home throughout the country approxi- nnately 60,OO0,OOO Questionnaire cards. MT. Roosevelt asked all totalfing or partially unemployed workers, "who are able to work, and who are seeking work" to answer the IA questions on the cards and return them by mail to the govern- ment by Nov. 20. He said that this would provide "real facts upon which to base 8 sound re.employ- n1ent program"
 Simultaneously, the American Federation of Labor reported that ''the number without work is still close to 100000 and warned that unless the present wave of lay-offs is checked, 1t will result in "the most serious consequences" Outline of His Plans
 Mir. Roosevelt revealed a general outline of how he plans to 1t his projected jobless aid scheme into recently stated budget-balancing ob- jectives. He indicated that:
 1.-The administration will retain its pledge to prevent starvation through lack of aid, of any unen1- ployed man or woman.
 2. the ultimate aim of the govern ment will be to stimulate private industry sufficiently to enable 1t to reabsorb the present core of un- used man-power.
 3. A concrete plan for enabling these concepts will be worked out as soon as possible after the results of tomorrow's tabulation have been completed.
 May Call In Leaders
 It was reported that MT. Roosevelt has been advised to call a con- ference of industrial and labor leaders as we'll as federal officials to map out a desirable program.
 John D. Biggers, Ohio glass man. ufacturer, is supervising the census.
 The president informed the nation in his nationwide broadcast that he considered the projected census "an essential part of the greater task of finding jobs for willing workers who are idle through no fault of their own."
 Enforced idleness. embracing any considerable portion of our people, in a nation of such wealth and natural opportunity, is a paradox that challenges our integrity" he said.
 "The permanent cure lies in find- ing suitable jobs in industry and agriculture for all willing workers. It involves cooperative effort and planning which will lead to the ab- sorption of this unused man-power in private industry. ...."

gree her shipping to provide out- lets for her expanding industries and to find means of payment for her foreign purchases.
 Refusal to admit all or certain of her exports and to make use of her shipping will have the effect not only of disorganizing her industry but also of depriving her of the means of obtaining the necessary foreign credit.
 Japan Paying Plenty
 Since 1t Is 6 well known fact that Japan's present campaigns in China involve 6 heavy drain on her financial resources and that by the end of the present year the Japa- nese diet will again be called upon to vote further large appropriations to cover the cost of military ad- ventures, to deny her any opportu- nifty of obtaining a foreign loan or otherwise procuring credit from for- eign sources, will render the ecQ- homie measures indicated more ef- fctive."

 Sharks Everywhere
 Everywhere we looked there were sharks-and more sharks. We 1m- mediately dropped smoke bombs and zoomed about over the men to call attention of the coast guard cut ter Mendota to their location. We also hoped to frighten the sharks. We had about decided to take a chance and land in an attempt to rescue the men when the Mendoza put over a small boat and took them aboard.
 Tt was a horrible and grueSome sight. I don't know how many of the missing were eaten by sharks, I didn't see anyone eaten but a navy pilot who also flew over the scene told me that he saw sharks tearing apart bodies of the dead who were floating near the spot where the ship went down.
 The boat must have carried some live goats or sheep to be used as food for the crew because we saw their carcasses floating and sharks nibbling at them.
 Burke said a high sea was run ming and that debris of the wreck age was being tossed about by high waves which made it hazardous to land plane.

 Shanghai, Nov. 15-(UP)-Japa- nese authorities may offer peace terms to China after they reach Soochow, 45 miles west of Shanghai, it was reported today.
 Chinese defenss eastward of SoochoW seemed crumbling, and a Japanese spokesman announced the capture of Quinsan, only 15 miles east of that city on which the Chi nese defense line is to be based.
 The spokesman claimed advances on all sectors, including the extreme northern part of the front where, he said, Japanese achievements had landed on the south bank of the Yangtze river and attacked Changhsu, 20 miles north of Soo- chow.
 Thus three Japanese armies were driving toward the Soochow line, as a third force is advancing northward and westward from Hangchow bay.
 Some Speculation
 There was speculation on the ex- tent to which tn eJapanese would seek to penetrate inland-particu- larly whether they would make an effort to go as far as Nanking, the national capital, which is 235 miles from the coast.
 It was reported that Gen. Iwane Hatsui, Japanese commander in chief, might offer peace terms as soon os the Japanese reached Soo- chow and then, if the terms were rejected, essay the Nanking cam paign. The Nanking march would be a threat over China's head.
 For the present the Chinese were retreating rapidly and offering al- most no resistance. They asserted that they wgere merely retiring to the new Soochow line and would make their next stand there.
 In token that they have their minds on NanKing, the Japanese sent an airplane fleet to bomb the capital again today. Nine planes bombed the Nanking arsenal and military airdrome.
 Here the situation was quiet but there were signs of increased Japa- nese determination to dominate the city.

scales which might deprive the south of its wage differential ad- vantages over higher-paid north ern areas.
 Reorganization Plans
 Reorganization of executive de- partments as proposed by MT. Roosevelt would enable him to con- solidate so-called independent agenA cieS, such as the interstate com- merce commission, with existing cabinet departments and shift war; ious bureaus from one to another of those departments. He also would have had the power to abolish bu- reaus and he asked congress to create two new cabinet departments, public welfare and public works. The bill would have created six new executives assistants for the president, each with a passion for anonymity"
 MT. Roosevelt is assured of his six new assistants. Plans for depart ment of public work have been abandoned. A tremendous lobby within the government has devel- oped against ceding to MT. Roosevelt power to shift bureaus from one department to another, but he probably will obtain limited author ity in that direction.
 Antitrust Laws
 MT. Roosevelt's proposal for amendment of antitrust laws in behalf of small business and in further prevention of monopoly was stated in vaguely general terms. It already has been agreed among congressional leaders that nothing can be done on that until mid- winter.
 Plans for better use of land and water resources involve the estab- lishment of seven regional conser- vation districts.
 Thee authorities would deal pri- marily with flood control, power de- velopment. navigation and conserva- tion of natural resources.

 Survivors Suffered
 All of the survivors suffered rom shock and exposure, and several hao been badly bitten.

 The freighters crew abandoned ship after heavy seas flooded the engine rooms, disabling all machin- cry. With the boating listing l5 degrees, the captain, George Con- fopanoelis, sent an SOS and ordered the crew overheard.
 The men donned life belts and jumped-their life boats had been washed away. Ten minutes later the Tzenny Chandris sank.
 George FotrnoS, representative ot the Greek syndicate which owned the Tzenny Chandris, was at the pier. He was accompanied by Greek interpreters to obtain, if possible, information from the men about the disaster.
 Loaded With Scrap Metal
 The freighter was en route from Morehead City, N. C., to Rotterdam with a cargo of scrap metal when she foundered 40 miles northeast of Diamond Shoals off Cape Hatteras in a 50-mile gale which swept the northeast Atlantic coast.
 Coast guard cutters and planes and other vessels went to the crews rescue.
 Coast guard cutters and planes and other vessels went to the crews rescue.
 Lieut.. Richard Burke, pilot ot a coast guard amphibian plane, spot ted the survivors in the water and saw the sharks that threatened their lives. By dropping smoke bombs he directed the Mendota to them.
 Rescuers experienced difficulty in obtaining details of the sinking of the freighter because the men could speak practically no English.
 Fight Against Sharks
 Lieut.. Burke brought back a de- scription of the seamen's fight against the attack of sharks. Upon his return to the coast guard base here last night he described to the United Press correspondent how the men were rescued literally from the jaws of the sharks.

Session Opens
 Washington, Nov. 15-(UP)-The 18th Congress convened in special session at 12:01 p. m. today. The house was called to order at noon and the senate quickly followed.
 The first order of business was the reading of the presidential procla- nation summoning congress to meet.
 The senate floor resembled a 1lone-too-sedate club room as Sena- tors reassembled, many of them in morning coats and striped trousers.
 A roar of chatter rose from the floor as members worked their way back and forth between the desks, shaking hands and clapping each other on the back.
 Sen. Hattie Caraway, d., Ark, with Q beribboned corsage of orchids on her shoulder lent the single splash of color to the somber scene. Sen. Dixie Bibbs Grave, d.. Ala, wore a plain black dress with silver orna- tnents.
 The buzz of conversations contin- ued in a subdued tone after the Rev. Barney T. Philips said prayer and while the clerk read the call for the Ipecial session.

business recession ana MT. RooSe- welt is conferring with industrialists in an effort to start a housing boom which would buoy business.
 Coincident with the sudden ad- ministration economy drive and the convention of congress, the nationa conference of mayors, led by Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York, will meet here today. The mayors need federal money tc tighten their municipal relief tax loads and to prevent uproar among the unemployed. Their conference is being counted in advance among the major obstacles to relief econ- omy.
 Similarly the pressure for ample farm funds, highways subsidies and continued public works construction combine to oppose speedy budget balancinng. All these issues auto matically go before this extraordin- ary session of congress. It is not bound in any way to restrict its consideration to the legislation pro- posed by MT. Roosevelt.
 Crop Surplus Snagged
 Crop surplus control legislation is snagged by dispute whether it shall be voluntary or compulsory and over methods of financing the costly project. It is estimated that surplus control will cost 275,O00,00 poo more thru the existing $50G,000, ,000-a- year soil conservation program, which it is designed to aosorb. A processing tax on cotton or corn and other commodities affected is urged to raise the additional sum.
 Minimum wage and maximum hours legislation was before the first session of the 18th congress but in amke-shift form after legislators haduhurriedly rewritten the propo- sal submitted by MT. Roosevelt's advisors. The senate passed a bill but the house blocked it as southern resentment arose against federal regulation of hours and wages on
