race.
"Of the % cars 10 start. all but
two were Champion equipped as the

when the cars flashed over the final

 An American manufacturer who might be inclined 10 deal with the reyolutionists, it is pointed out in some quarters, would face the likeli- hood Of such a transaction affecting adversely any bids subsequently, sub mittcd by him for government con- tracts. and he also would be con- fronted by the possibility of an em- pargo. which the president has au- thority to proclaim if he finds it ad- Nisable.
