The Jap anese were advancing in a groat fan shaped formation nearly 100 miles stretching from the Yangtze southwanl well into northern Chekang province, with the center before .Hoochow. Foreign advices said the bombing of Soochow had inflicted terrible casualties and ruHirmous damage, Wu sih, furthiT west, also was heavily [lunished. Japanese spokesmen said the Ixmibings were ni'cessary to “create panic among Chinese troops falling liack to those points.” Dr. H. F.

Columbia, Nov. 13.—Frank 0, Black, statistician for the United .States department of agriculture, said yesterday.- that, -South Carolina was experiencing one of its best crop years in point of production. “On the whole,” he said, “there has been favorable sea.sons and final har vest is expt*cte<l to .show the largest cotton and corn crops since 1931 and 1923, re.spectively, and the biggest hay crop of many years.” He reported that the com crop was expected to total 25,017,000 bushels, which would be 6 per cent above last year’s production and 24 per cent aljove the 1928-32 average. His estimate for the hay crop was 506,000 tons. Other estimates were 1 4,860,000 bushels of sweet potatoes; 8,.580,000 pounds of peanuts; 1,160,- 900 pounds of pecans; 1,364,00 bush els of cowpeas, and 60,000 bushels of .soybeans. Black said “a record tobicco crop ha.s been harvested and sold for more money than any previous tobacco crop. Outturn of fcKid and fee<l crops are well above average and for the most part jirtHluction of minor crops is ample for local nee<ls.” He placed the combin»‘d tobacc6 and cotton crop value at approximately 163,000,000 against $67,000,000 last year.

The declaration stated the confer ence found “it difficult to understand Japan’s persistent refusal” to discuss means of peace in the four-month-old conflict. Even should the conference not de cide on direct sanctions it was felt that acceding to the Chinese plea for war supplies and credits would amount to indirect sanctions.
