BLACK CHALLENGE
 ROUTE IS OPEN
Supreme Court Believed to Have Pointed Way to
 Attack Eligibility
By RUSSELL TURNER Jnlted Press Stan COrrespOndcnt) )

(Unlted Press Stan COFVespOndent)
 Washington, Oct. i2-(UP)-The supreme court was believed today to have indicated way to challenge the constitutional eligibility of Hugo l.. Black to sit As one of It's justices,
 Legal experts expressed this be- lief after studying the decision of Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes In which the court denied two peti. tons charging that the new jus. tice was ineligible because the emolu- men8 of that ofiice were increased by ia congress in which he was Q member of the senate.
 Lawyers pointed out that the courts reason for rejecting the pleas was that neither Of the petitioners had established sufficient personal interost-but merely . general in. tereSt common to oil members of tho public"
 Hughes' explanation, 1t was be- iieVcd. clearly indicated that any attorney representing iitigantS be- fore the court might raise thc ques- ton again and, If sufficient personal interest could be shown. obtain . definite ruling from the court on the justice'g eligibility.
 Neither of the petitioners in the Black cases decided yeStcrday-Ai- bert Levitt, former assistant to the attorney general, and Patrick Henry Kelly, c Boston attorney-showed personal interest other than that of c citizen and Q member of the bar of this court" Hughes said.
 That Is iilsufieient," he added.
 "It Is an established principle" Hughes said. "that to cntitic . pri- Yate individual to invoke the ju- dicial power, he must show that he has sustained or b immediately in danger of sustaining . direct in. jury"
 Attorneys may also raise again the second issue upon which the tive denied petitions were based-that no vacancy existed to which the former senator could be appointed because retired Justice Van De. service in the lower courts. Levitt vanter still b subject to call foE and Kelly contended that Van Dc. Vanter therefore Fetaing his title at an associate justice.
 If such challenges arise, 1t waf believed that Justice Black would step aside in cases where his cligi. biiity had been challenged. This was c remote possibility, however, because 1t might result in Black having to disquaiify himself in c majority Of the courts eases.
 Black did not participate in the consideration of the petition af. fecting himself.
 Levitt and Kelly were non-coin- initial about the possibility Of fur- ther action on the question. The former justice official hinted, how ever, that he might continue the case.
 T do not know which Of four legal steps will take" he said. Tt will depend upon further thought and consideration of the opinion"
 Kelly accused the court of "evads ing" the issue he and Levitt had raised.

BRITAIN BEARS
 DOWN ON FRANCE
Wants Spanish Frontier Opened to Allow Troops,
 Munitions to Pass
By RALPH HEHNzEN

(United Press staff Correspondent) Copyright, 1887, by United PreSS)
 Paris, oct. l2-(UP)-Responsib quarters said today that the Brit ish government was exerting ex- treme pressure on France to open the Spanish frontier ct once to per- init c full flow Of men and munitions to the LoyalistS.
 Generally reports have implied that !t waS France that wanted to open tho frontier while Britain counseled caution.
 According to the information to- day 1t Is actually the British gov- ernment that wants immediate ace ton in repriSal for Premier Benito MussoliniS refusal to discuss with drawal of foreign volunteers from the Spanish civil war,
 Britain, according to information here, seems convinced that iTnrne. diato action Is necessary, It Is aS- serted that France has been urged strongly to withdraw her border patrols opposite Spain and to dc. clare the frontier wide open.
 It Is represented tlat the French government wants something more than the moral" support Britain has offered. It wants specific guar. antees of British support-phySical aS well As morai-in event that the frontier Is opened and France finds herself in . dangerous position. One danger, as tho French see t. is that Mussolini might send c large army to Spain in retaliation. Then France might see herself in c pris vate ,war with on Italian army on Spanish soil. .t
 It b emphasized here that there will Do no action as regards Volun- te0rs until after the meeting of the British cabinet at London. So con. vincod are informanb here that Britain wants to act that they even speculate on the possibility that Britain might denouncs the ion- intervention agreement as c failure and lift her own embargo on arms for the Loyalists.
 French official quarters estimate that there are ct most 66,000 Itai- ians of all categories with the Na- tionaiists and something less than 5000 dermanS-together perhaps one-fourth of the total Nationalist strength. On the Loyaiist side they put tho volunteer strength ct 5000 French, 5000 Czechs. 5000 Poles, 3,000 Russians, 5000 German and Italian anti-fasciSts and 5000 other foreigners including Aineri. cans-a total Of 3e.000 or only c frac- ton of the Loyaiist army.

Policemen whose present suits are still good will not be required to buy new uniforms immediately, but when they do plan to purchase the new uniforms they are to be of serge.
 The chief said the serge suits arc not as expensive, and are good looking. Police Of other communi- ties such as Waterbury and Derpy wear serge uniforms, he added. He said, however, he does not feel the shirts the Waterbury policemen wear will last as long or are as comfortable In summer as the type the local cops wear,

Color.ScherneP Plant
 ing With Tulips
Three I,uiip Typesj Single Early,
 Cottage sRA Darwin.

No flower Is more suited to color. scheme planting than the tulip. You can count with assurance on the height of each flower, as well aB on itg time of blooming and 10. cation. One bulb will usually pro. duee one flower, although there are some varieties which occasionally branch and bear more than one blossom.
 While there iS c tendency toward q return to formal beds of tulips, especially among those who wish c modern note iSi their gardens, most garden owners will probably prefer informal groups planted in contrasting colors.
 The worst way to plant tulips is to set them in single rows. Instead Of being enhanced by this arrange naent their beauty suffers. Beds in the modern manner are planted in masses of . single color and are usually in angular shapes.
 Where contrasting colors are planted in adjoining groups 1t is relatively easy to obtain vivid and harmonious effects. The Darwin and breeder tulips furnish excel lent purple, orange, pink, rose and red varieties. The cottage tulips provide clear yellows, which are given added charm by their point. cd petals.
 A white and black combination is possible by using one of the dark purple Darwins and white variety. A violet-purple is a striking picture in combination with . pink. The pale pink variety, Clare Butt, iB set off very well with a pale lavender. Working out such combinations is half the fun of tulip gardening.

SKY BATTLESHIP. WITH 3 TURRETS
 BUILT FOR NAVY
Utmost Secrecy ClOaks Construction of Giant
 ArmOred Plane
BY ARTHUR N, sUVERKRUP

BY ARTHUR Y. SUVERkRUP United Press Stan C0rrespOndent)
 San Diego, Cal, Oct. i2-(Up)- A flying, armored dreadnought of the skies--the United States NaVy's bid to maintain its supremacy in the skies - will be given Its first tests here within . few weeks, probably about Nov. 1.
 And while the finishing touches are being placed on the great plane, jn the most closely carefully maintained secrecy, an even more powerful plane Is being designed, it was learned.
 Turreted, fore and aft, like the giant dreadnoughts of, the surtacs, the new fighting craft will be as large, If not larger, than the trans- Pacific Clipper planes.
 Four giant motors, mounted on the single wing, will develop more than b,2oo horsepower, 1t was learned.
 Built by Consolidated At the Consolidated Aircraft Corp. plant here, where the plane is being built by the most trusted workmen, officials were loath to drop the veil of secrecy concerning the fighting craft--said to be the worlds most powerful air fighting machine. It was revealed. however, that Q super.strong, allsmetal hull, armored to protect the vital DOT. tons of the plane from rival air. craft or anti-aircraft fire, is near Ing completion.
 This hull, 1t is said, Is SO de- signed that the huge flying battle- ship will Do able to ride out the most severe storms If forced to land in the ocean.
 b,00O.Mile Flying Range
 A cruising range of at least 6,00c miles, probably even farther, will make the air-dreadnouRht capable of operating with the surface fleet in even the most far-flung maneu. verS, Aboard will be complete quarters for the crew, 1t was be. lleVed.
 A fuel supply which will enab! the plane to talse-off ana remair in the air for at least 48 hours vii be carried - presumably in or. mored tanks.
 Naval and aircraft company off. cials admit that revolutionary changes in construction techniqW have been worked out-changeS which some compared to the in. troduction of steel armor-pintinp on the world famous Monitor, oi Civil War days.
 It was learned, despite the care. ful guarding of all phases of the design and construction of the craft, that at least three tuvrea will be mounted on tho big plane.
 Gun Caliber Not Known
 one Of these will be iil the bow, another will Dc in the amidRhlr section, and the third some placG near the tail assembly. It Is aS- sumed, also, the plane will be equipped with guns which will give It adequate protection from at. tacks from oil angles, but the cali. Der and siZo Of the armaments ir ehch turret is something about which no word of information Is available.
 Meanwhile, it Is perSistently ru. mored in Senii.officiai circles here that an even larger and more DOW. erful air-sea fighter has been de. signed - If not actually already under construction hero,
 Thb rumor concerns c plane said to be far superior to anything ever conceived - c plane with at least six motors.
 Naval officials remain tight. lippcd concerning this rurnor.
