cupation of Taiyu"n-fu, capital of
Shansi province in north China,
were premature. A great battle
still is raging around the walled
city. 4 number of Americans in
the Taiyuan-fu area were unre-
ported and il was feared they
were in grave danger.
Both Tokyo and Marking again
denied reports from Berlin that
Germany was attempting to ar
range n truce in the general Chi
ncsc-Japancsc war. GcncralisSlmo
Chang Kai-shck, supreme Chinese
war dictator. asserted again that
China will accept mediation from
nobody but intends 20 fight to the
bitter end.
More than 100 japanese air
planes Sunday bombed Il dozen
cities in the Shanghai area killing
hundreds of Chinese.
Fighting in the great battle
which has ragged around this inter
national city since mid-August to-
day was going on with tremendous
ferocity along a broken line OF
about so miles.
The Japanese were attacking
everywhere and foreign military
attaches believed that the best OF
the Central Chinese government
troops formerly engaged around
the city had been withdrawn west,
ward to the great "Hindenburg
line defense works in the Soochow
lakes region between Shanghai
and Marking. o
An area of more than 800
square miles in and around Shang-
hal was a shambles.
More than 40 additional towns
and villages had been wholly OF
partly destroyed during the week

A japanese spokesman said at
a. m. that "Our regiments are
closing in on SunkianG' following

EXPECT u. S. TO ASK
NETS BE REMOVED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. CUP
The state department is prepar'
ing to make official representa-
tionS to Japan urging the Tokyo
government to withdraw fishing
fleets from Alaskan waters, 1t
was learned last night.
\ note is being prepared and
shortly will be presented, 1t was
understood, asking Japan to re-
move from Bristol Bay and posi-
bly, other salmon areas abe crab
fishing vessels which are reported
TO have set nets for salmon run
ming for Alaskan rivers. The ba-
sis Of the note was understood to
be an appeal for maintenance OF
good will between the nations.
Stat" department officials feel
privately that Japan may agree to
cooperate in order to maintain
present relations with the United
States. They point out that there
is no means under international
law TO enforce withdrawal of the
fishing vessels.
1t was understood that the de-
partment would stress that mil
lions in private and government
money had been spent to build up
the Alaskan fishing grounds and
would claim economic preference
on those grounds.
Although legislation would be
Of no avail because japanese
fleets repeatedly have operated
outside the 12-mile limit, there
were protests against the alleged
practices hate in the last session
of congress. 1t was believed de-
mands for removal of the Japan
csc vessels would be renewed dur
ing the coming special session.
Plans of Alaskan union fisher
men and the Maritime Federation
of the Pacific to boycott Japan
csc goods and picket vessels were
expected to accelerate state de-

TAKE STEPS IN
BLACK CUSTER
Leayitt Tells Roosevelt Lat
ter Responsible for Jurist
Being Seated

WASHINGTON, Nov. s. lUP).
Albert Levitt, former special as
sistant attorney general, last
night accused President RoOse-
welt Of being directly responsible
for the illegal presence" of
Jusuic Hugo l.. Black on the SUI
prcmc court and demanded that
hc ordered Attorney General
Homer S. Cummings TO seek
Blacks removal.
Levitt said in Il letter to the
chief executive that it is entire
ly unfair" for him to compel
private litigants to fight against,
or else suffer under. an illegal
condition which you. yourself
have created" .,
1T would be gracious and
pfaiscworthy for you to exercise
the power whcih il is your duty
TO use under the constitution and
direct the attorney general TO
start legal proceedings to remove
Mr.. Black from the position when
he now assumes TO hold, Levitt
wrote. -.
Lcyitt's letter was made public
a. the court prepared to recon-
ycnc today after a two-wceks re-
cess with the possibility that 1t
may rule for the third and per-
haps the last time on Black $
eligibility to sit on the nations
highest tribunal.
Two previous challenges to
Blacks eligibility were rejected
by the court. They were brought
bv Levitt and by Patrick Henry
Kelly. Boston, Mass, attorney.
In his letter to the president
last night Levitt stressed the con-
tcntion he and Kelly made before
he cou't-that CD no vacancy
existed when Black was named 20
the bench because his prcdeces-
SOY. Willis Van Devanter. merely
retired and l2) that Black be-
came constitutionally ineligible to
serve on the bench when, rs y
S. Senator. he increased the
emolumcntS Of the office by yot-
inc retirement pay to justices
past the age of G5. =,
The court rejected the chal-
lengc on the ground that neither
Levitt nor Kelly had shown that
they had been directly injured by
Black's appointment. Levitt wrote
the president that 1.-The govern
mcnt of the United States ha,
such interest" and added that
"quo warranto is the proper &C
ton to bring"
An attack on Blacks fitness anc
eligibility came last week from 8
group of Florida brokers in :
plea for a rchcaring of the courts
recent adverse decision on a cast
in which they questioned the con
stitutionality of the securities anC
exchange act.
