produce this country 100000
bales this time.
The bureau said foreign pro-
duction is up IS percent over the
average five years ago.
Farmers here are to receive as
much for their crops as last year
despite the fact that the price is
lower by $25 per bale.

A group of Florida brokers, open

Hugo l.. Black from the L. 5. SUI

blamed stock market instability"
on doubt as TO the legality Of the
securities and exchange act and
appealed TO the tribunal 20 pass
judgment on the law.
The action came in u petition
filed by attorneys for the Ryan
Floridae corporation, the Florida
Pax Oil company, Income Royal

ated with the three firms. The SUI
premc court on October Is re-
fused 10 review a decision by the
fifth circuit court which rejected
the contention by the same petit
toners that the SEC is unconsti-
tutional.
Today the group asked the
court TO reconsider in view OF the
recent stock market developments
and on the ground that its earlier
decision was invalid because JUS
tice Black, who participated IN
the verdict, was seated Illegally.
The Floridians specifically are
attacking constitutionality of the

In the petition filed Yesterday,
the brokers held that Black not

from a seat on the tribunal be-
cause no vacancy existed and be-
cause he voted to increase the
emoluments of the office while in
the senate, but they contended
that the former Alabama senator

SHANGHAI, Nov. 4.-(UP)-
Efforts Of the powers, led by
Britain, the United States and
France, to neutralize Shanghai as
soon as the long Chinese-Japanese
battle around this city ends, have
failed completely, reliable Japan
csc sources told the United Press
today.
Military reasons prohibit such
naturalization, they said.
These Japanese believed that
the severe fighting which has rag
ed in and around the city since
midAugust will be ended within
a week. They described the eff
forts of the powers as designed
to make the entire Shanghai area
neutral zone so that rebuilding
Of the ruined parts of the city, re-
sumption of normal commerce
and restoration of trade. could be
achieved rapidly.
The Japanese were described as
sympathetic to the powers pro-
poSal but unable to comply with
it because the city constitutes the
only practical military base for
a continuance Of their operations
against the Chinese army in the
Yangtse valley area.

of lives and huge sums Of money

civilian Japanese said.

WASHINGTON, Nov. !. (UP).
Republican leaders in congress
hailed Tuesdays election results
as encouraging" and as a rebuff
to the New Deal. House Minor
ity Leader Bertrand II. Smell of
New York, said that Republican
gains of "l2 to II" seats in the
New York Legislature and the
fact that the COP. forces won a
seat in the national congress
while rc-elccting two other Re-
publicans Indicate that the pco-
pie are fully alive to the Roosc-
vclt-Fmlcy threat of Il crushing

cal spoilSmcn."
representative Joseph W. Mar
tin, r.. Mass, chairman of the
Republican congressional cam
paign committee. said the Re
pubicans "took satisfaction" in
the reelection of Mayor LaGu-
ardja and pointed out that the G.
or. rcgaincd control of the New
Jersey state assembly. He was
particularly pleased. however,
with the election of District At
torncy Thomas L. Dewey in New
York.
Describing Dewey as "a very
promising young man for the fu-
turc," Martin said the results of
the elections."arc very encourage
ing to Republicans" His obScr-
walton projected discussions on
the possibility that Dewey might
run for governor of New York
next year as a Republican and, if
successful, use Albany as the
springboard into the 1910 presi-
dental fight.
Dewey will be 3S years old in
1910. Born in Michigan, he was
named special district attorney by
Governor Herbert II. Lehman of
New York, to crush New York'S
racketeers. After months of in
tensive work, Dewey and his
aides brought about the convic-
ton OF Charles Lucky" Luciano,
Manhattan vice car, and other
underworld leaders.
L. S. Senator A. Harry Moore,
D., who was elected governor of
New Jersey by $4,000 plurality
as shown in complete returns last
night, probably will appoint his
own successor in the senate.
Moore, who defeated his Re
publican opponent, State Senator
Lester II. Clee, b. 744,4O7 votes
to 69S,7S3, is expected TO delay
his resignation from the L. S.
senate until he is sworn in as
governor. Thus he would prevent
Governor Harold G. Hoffman
from appointing a Republican to
the senate.
Choice seemed to lie between
William II. Kelly, state Demo-
cratic chairman, and New Jersey
State Senator John J. Toolan of
Mayor Frank Hague,
