ragged but fsavage array against
the tight Japanese lines about
Shanghai today with the avowed
purpose of pushing " the invader

The battle, for Shanghai roared
into its sixth day with no lessen

Shells and shell fragments In
increased numbers sprayed the
French concession, in which most
of the American community lives.
Police said shrapnel or splinters
caused at least 50 new casualties,
all Chinese, within the concession.
Many, of them. died.
Food shortage was added to the
dangers of life in Shanghai., and

day, Chinese and Japanese air

and doing tremendous damage.
How many lives they claimed
could not even be estimated.

. Votes 'No Later
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17HP)
Hugo L. Black, aggressive sew
dealer, stood ready tonight .to
take the oath of office as an as
sociate Justice of the supreme
court of the United States.
The last obstacle to his assum
ing the judicial robes was re
moved by a senate vote ot S3 to
16, approving his nomination, the
first to be made to the court by
President Roosevelt in three
years of conflict with the tri
bunal. In confirming the appoint
ment, the senate brushed aside
charges that Black has been a
member of the Ku Klux Klan,
that he is of a temperament ill
suited to the judicial office and
that he is ineligible for the post
for constitutional reasons.
These accusations were hurled
with vigor and occasionally with
bitterness by the small but res
olute band of those who opposed
confirmation, throughout a d a y
of forthright debate.
Bnrke Claim Proof
He Is Klan Member
The spectacular charges that
Rlark had been associated with
the Klan were raised at the out
set of the debate by Senator
Copeland of New York, and em
erged irrepressibly throughout,
until. Just before the voting be
gan. Senator Burke (fi-'Neb')' as
serted: ": "If the senate will join me la
sending this nomination, back to
committee for investigation, I will
produce two witnesses who have
told me that they were present
when Senator Black was initiated
into the Klan."
Recommittal was urged as
well, by Senators Bridges R
N.H.), Austin (R-Vt.) and others
on the ground that the committee
should make a thorough study-of
the fitness of the nominee. Borah
(R-Ida.) and Glass ( D-Va.) op
posed it on the ground . that all
necessary . information was at
hand, though they voted "no" oa
the question of confirmation.
With such defections as these,
the opponents of confirmation
who had counted on . making a.
strong showing upon the motion
to recommit were quickly deem
ed to disappointment. The ote
was 66 to 15.
Steiwer Is Among
Those Opposing
A roll call on confirmation fol
lowed immediately. The. sixteen
who voted against were: Austin,
Borah, Bridges, Davis, Hale,
Johnson of California, Lodge,
Steiwer of Oregon, Townsend and
White (Republicans), and BoTke,
Byrd, Copeland.. Gerry, Glass and
King (Democrats).
During the debate defendants of
Black assailed the opposition to
him as based on "prejudice" oc
casioned by his liberal legislative
career. They said he was a man
well-fitted to sit on the highest
bench. ; . . . -
- Senator Black quietly awaited
the outcome in the nearby office
ot Edwin Halsey, secretary of the
senate. Reporters found him
there, smiling his pleasure when
the vote had been taken. v ; ; -"I
am very much gratified at
the confidence shown in me by my
colleagues, he said.
' He was uncertain, he said, as to
when- he would "take the oath f
