New York Cotton
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-Cotton
prices were steadied today by de-
mand attributed to several favor
able developments including the
ruling of Economic Administrator
Byrnes lifting farm wages and
salaries This was construed in
cotton trading sources as inf1a-
tionary.
Other factors were the announce
ment of considerable textile ship
ments scheduled for North Africa
and a request by Department of
Agriculture that cotton farmers re-
duce paintings by IL million acres
on the next crop.
Buying by spot houses and mills
for price fixing purposes was filled
by scale up offerings through hedg-
ing and liquidation with consider
able switching from March to later
months by cimmission houses.
Late prices were IS cents lower
to 40 cents bale higher. December
1885, March 18.4l. May 1926.
Cotton prices moved higher in the
final hour on buying by spot houses

Senate and House members inter-
ested in the subject conferred later
and turned their attention to this
new effort of getting away. as far
as possible, from the overtime issue.
Chairman Ramspeck of the House
Civil Service Committee indicated
that If the straight pay raise bill is
agreed on the temporary overtime
laws which expire tonight will not
be extended. These temporary laws
cover certain groups of civilians in
the Army and Navy.
Mr.. Ramspeck said, however. the
new bill would not affect the me-
chanlcs In navy yards and arsenals,
whose pay scales and overtime ar
rangements are determined by wage
board agreements.
Bill Now Being Drawn.
The new bill is in the hands of
drafting experts. but will not be
ready for introduction today. Mr..
Ramspeck indicated. however, he
had some hope of obtaining action
on it before the present Congress
adjourns, possibly in two weeks. or
automatically on January g. If this
is not possible it could be presented
promptly to the Civil Service Com
mittees in the new Congress.
Senator Mead is in Kansas City
today with the Truman War In
vestigating Committee, but is due
back before Thursday. when the
Senate Civil Service Committee is
expected to meet.
The plan suggested by Senator
Mead Saturday would have called
for another extension of the tenn
porary overtime pay laws for Army
and Navy workers. coupled with the
temporary percentage bonus for
other clerical employees in the de-
| partments.

Lawyers Guild Denies
Suit Violates Free Press

NEW YORK. Nov. 80 ga reso-
luton asserting that the contention
of the Associated Press that the
Government antitrust suit against
it is violation of freedom of the
press is without foundation" has
been adopted by the National Law
yers' Guild executive board
The resolution, adopted yesterday
declared also that the appropriate
committee OF the Lawyers Guild
is authorized to file a brief as a
friend of the court setting forth the
position of the guild in the case"
The resolution instructed the Guild
president to appoint committee to
study and report on the general
question of freedom of the press and
wartime dissemination of news.
The complaint against the A. P.
was filed August %, charging that
the non-profit news gathering asso-
citation was monopoly and violated
the antitrust laws.
The A. P. denied the charge of
monopoly and declared that the
regulations it operated under. re-
viewed previously by the courts,
were not unreasonable restraints.
The A. P's answer questioned If
success of the action would not
abridge the first amendment to the
Constitution.

With about 900 miles to 60 to

The 9th Army has dashed TOO

ing at Ell Alamein. This was put
down here as military feat of the
first order because the enemy has

Everything is quiet in Toulon and

informed the maritime perfect of
Toulon that the population of Tou-
lon should rest assured that there
was no reason to be afraid.
'The forts surrounding Toulon

sources by making it necessary to
rush troops across the Mediter-
ranean and to use other divisions to
occupy Southern France.
The fighting for the last toehold
of the Axis in Tunisia apparently
was growing in intensity in the
Bizerte-TuniS area and the Paris
radio reported that fighting also
was in progress near Sousse, on the
coastal road some 10 miles south
east of Tunis.
French troops under Gen. Henri
Giraud had been reported active
in this region earlier. apparently in
an effort to prevent Axis forces in
Tripoli from reaching the German
and Italian strongholds at Bizerte
and Tunis.
Advance Continues.
The Morocco radio broadcast a
communicate from French head
quarters today which said Opera
tons continued to develop accord
ing to plan"
In collaboration with our Allies
our troops have increased consid-
erably their advance eastWards, "
the communicate said.
Axis planes raided Sioux Ahras,
railway junction in Eastern Algeria,
Saturday night, injuring 10 persons
and causing some damage, the COM
munique added
The German controlled Vichy
radio said several Allied attacks sup
ported by tanks had been repulsed
py Axis troops in the coastal and
centra! regions of Tunisia and IL
Allied prisoners had been taken.
Axis aircraft took part in the fight
and Shot down 16 Allied planes, the
Vichy radio claimed.
The occupation of Djedeida by
Allied troops was reported in an
Allied communique yesterday, which
also said that operations in the
vicinity of Mateur, another railroad
junction about Is miles south of
Bizerte, were proceeding satisfac-
torlly.'
BY cutting the rail connections be-
tween Bizerte and Tunis. the Allies
restricted communication between
the Axis forces at the two cities to
a coastal highway. The road should
soon be under attack by Allied ar
tillery, however.
Then the British LIST Army under
1t. Gen. Kenneth A. N. Anderson
and American troops would be in a
position to attack the two strong
holds one at time with overWhelm-
ing strength. French military men
have warned, however, that sue
cessful assault on Bizerte will be a
difficult operation if the Germans
have been able to entrench them
selves securely.
Patton Talks With NOgues.
Maj. Gen. George S. Patton, Unit
ed States Army commander in
French Morocco, had a long and
cordial talk with Gen. Auguste
Nogues, French commander in Mo-
rocco, last night, the Morocco radio
reported today.
The same source also reported
that Admiral Jean Darlan, former
commander Of the Vichy armed
forces who went over to the Allies
three days after American troops
landed in North Africa, had issued
an order establishing government
by decree in Morocco.
The ladio quoted the order as
saying:
The commissioner resident gen
eral OF France in Morocco is en-
powered to take directly by means
u DEGREES all measures which in
time OF pace in the French realm
OF Morocco would have depended on
either French law or on DEGREES

her crew took her for refuge after
slipping out of the naval base at
Toulon.
She was the only warcraft known
to have left Toulon when the French
feet there was scuttled. g.
Under international law, the
commander of the Iris had 48 hours
to make his boat seaworthy and
leave the neutral port, but Reu-
tiers dispatch from Madrid declared
Spanish naval mechanics yesterday
had boarded the vessel and re-
moved essential machine parts.
CA British radio broadcast
heard by the Federal Commune
cations Commission said the
crew of the Iris was interned
yesterday afternoon.)
More Explosions Heard.
The Vichy radio said last night
that in blacked-out Toulon rumbl-
ings of explosions in the scuttled
French ships still could be heard.
The Berlin radio broadcast a
vichy report that final figures
showed six killed and Is wounded
among the military personnel at
Toulon. The report said two of
the wounded had died yesterday to
raise the total.
The Berlin broadcast also quoted
Vichy report as saying that none
OF the commanders of the ships
went down with his vessel, but it did
not make clear what became of the
officers. Previous reports from Vichy
said many commanders chose to 60
down with their ships.
Paris Radio Blames Laval.
From the Nazi-controled Paris
radio, meanwhile, came an accuse
ton that Pierre Laval was re-
sponsible, if indirectly, for the sui
eide of the French fleet.
"Laval's ambiguous policy fostered
an attitude of difidence among Of
ficers and men of the French army
and navy" the broadcast said. Col
laboration with Germany has been
constantly sabotaged by official cir
cles in Vichy."
A Vichy communique which de-
eiared that the fleet had been
scuttled on standing orders issued
after the 1910 armistice was regard
ed in some quarters as an attempt
by Laval to deny responsibility for
the fleets destruction.
