The chief belief In Challedon's S
Derby possibilities rested on the
Challenger II colts liking for the
route. Ell Chico's supporters cast
out the little redhead's setback by
nose two weeks ago as not a true
test
Here's the way they voted:
Sammy Renick-Johnstown has
the speed to keep out of trouble and
is bred for the distance, but the track
must be fast. Why 60 further than
that?
Ronnie Nash-Johnstown won
both his last starts in a gallop. He'll
60 on.
Basil James-Johnstown appears
best so far. Has speed and should
go the route.
Johnny OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. He
has the best trainer.
Ruperto Donoso-Johnstown's a
good horse; lots of speed.
Renick Likes Challedon.
Hilton Dabson-Johnstown be-
cause OF his speed. A good, speedy
horse always is hard to beat.
Joe Renick-Challedon can run
on any kind of track-and run the
route.
Skinny Fallon - Challedon has
what it takes; he ran a good one
in the Chesapeake when he was
making his first start since No
vember.
Charley Stevenson-The Challen-
ger colt (ChalledonD has both speed
and stamina. I like the way he
ran the Chesapeake.
Wayne Wright-El Chico ran a
good race his first out and has come
back with good workouts since.
Nose Merrill-Chico will improve
lot off his last out.
Harry Richards-I don't think
he'll start, but it's Impound to win
IT he does. He's going to be one of
the best later. Otherwise, III take

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 2S.-The
Jockey jury on the Kentucky Derby
case returned split verdict for
Johnstown today.
A dozen leaders among the little
fellows who boot 'em home were
asked to pick the winner for the
Associated Press. and half of them
figured William Woodward's big bay
son of jamestown couldn't miss at
the Downs May simply because he
has too much foot for the other
3-year-olds.
One novel reason for climbing
aboard the Johnstown bandwagon
came from Johnny Longden. HE
has the best trainer" Johnny
claimed. So there's a bow to Sunny
Jim Fitzsimmons and his master
minding.
Six Others Divided.
The six other ''jurymen" were split
three for Challedon, two for Ell
Chico and one, Harry Richards,
liked Impound "if he starts" Other
wise, ne stipulated" ITS Johns
town.
The dozen Jurors were selected
because at this writing none has
a mount in the Derby. Therefore
each might be expected to give an
opinion based on his sound judg-
ment rather than with one eye on
how 1t looked to the boss"
All members of the JohnstoWn
Cheering and Chowder Society
pointed to the sheer speed the long
striding Woodward colt has shown
In his two outings to date, in which
he won 6-furlong test by six
lengths and then cracked the
Jamaica track record for mile and
70 yards in his last trip to the post.

NATIONAL PURPOSE
CLEAR

The debate over neutrality legisla-
tion and the popular referendum be-
fore declaration of war in part ex-
presses a genuine difference of opin-
ion as to the best way to stay out of
war. In part it reveals the desire of
certain types of men who hold places
of power to retain for themselves and
their class the right to decide whether
or not to plunge the nation into war.
And this must not be.
Ever since our soldiers came home
from France we have been groping
for the road to neutrality. We have
passed several laws, none of them
strong enough and some suspiciously
weak. But the national purpose is
clear-to fix it so that no President,
no small group of men, and not even
Congress, could send our soldiers
overseas again unless the plain people
of America want them sent. And
when ever did the plain people any
where want to go to war?

and employees until 1912, instead of
advancing to 11s per cent next year.
1t lis estimated that this will save con-
tributors 1926, 100000 during the next
three years.
Old-age insurance benefits would
become payable in 1910 instead of
1912 to pensioners, aged wives, wild
ows, children and aged dependent
parents. This would increase previ-
ously estimated outgo on these ac-
counts during the five years, 1910 to
1914 inclusive, by an estimated ST.
200 100000. Over the period of the
next 45 years the total estimated
outgo would be about the same as
now provided.
About 100000 additional persons
such as seamen, bank employees and
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-09-01

employed persons over 65 would be
brought under the old-age insurance
benefits and about 100000 additional
under the unemployment insurance
benefits.
Another provision would tend to do
away with lump-sum payments to
survivors of old-age insurance bene-
ficiaries in favor of monthly survivor
benefits, graded according to the de-
gree of relationship.
A federal old-age and survivor in
surance trust fund would be estab-
lished, with the Secretary of the
Treasury, the Secretary of Labor and
the chairman of the Social Security
Board as trustees.

Here is wallflower that pays
to be cultivated. We hear too much
about being wallflower, but here
is one that is very much in demand
IN Europe and Asia. In fact, there
is an abundance of these erysin1um.
They are either perennial or bien-
nial, and that Is a great help to a
flower grower. For a while YOU can
leave such flower children to take
care of themselves. Most of the
members of this group have golden
flowers and this one is especially
bright and cheerful in its orange or
or lemon-yellow dress. They make
a most pleasing color scheme for
planting against dark-green back
ground of shrubbery or even against
tree trunk.
Since these flowers are wildings
and have had things pretty much
their own way in the mountain for
ests where they flourish, there are
great patches of them in the West,
spring and summer.
OF late years this wallfloWer has
been going places. She has gotten
as far East as Ohio. BY developing
many seed-children who are light
enough to travel on the wind and
needing no other transportation, the
wallflower's range is widening each
season.
The sturdy, purplish stem is from
l to 2 feet high, and the long, mar
row leaves. many of them toothed,
are just as likely to be purple on
the underside to match the stem,
and this makes them decorative, too.
The stem and the leaves are rough.
That is evidence they have had to
protect themselves from grazing
animals, always looking for tender.
juicky leaves. To deprive plants of
leaves, as you know, is to sign their
death warrant. And since animals
have to be taught by the only
method they can understand, suffer-
ing, by having a plant. In self
defense, develop thorns, briars,
prickles, bitter or burning juices or
something else, is all the grazer
needs, and from that time on the
plant can be safe in their midst.

Another pool ball artist has come
to the fore. He has worked out a
very novel problem which will give
you a good workout. There are, of
course, Is pool balls, numbered l
through Is. Can you arrange them
in regular, triangular form, as
though they were racked, so that
the three balls in the center total 80
and the five balls on each of the
three sides also equal 80? If YOU
can accomplish this fairly quickly
you are streamlined; it's good
problem.

Police Chiefs Condemn "Jaywalking'
Street Department
 Repairing Damages
Many Communities Face Expense in Repairing
 Streets-Fleming Assigns Crews to Do Repairing

With Waterbury's winter of ex- treme changes in temperature just about to conclude, several crews of street department workers have been engaged for the past days in repairing holes in roads and side walks, starting with the downtown area. Effects of the partial thawing of the frost during warm" spells, their recurrent freezing, has raised hob with roadway and sidewalk con- ditions, causing bubbles in pave ments, depressions and mills" on sidewalks.
 By report from other sections of New England, it appeared today that the entire area, principally municipalities, must "pay through the nose" for natures ravages. A Boston report was to the effect:
 Widespread Damage
 "Winter weather has ravaged many of New Englands roads until it seems certain that local. state and county highway officials will soon be faced with the spring re- pair problem. Successive freezes and thaws, extending over a period of weeks, have buckled road sur- faces all through the territory, with the result that many communities will have to encounter extra ex- penditures.
 "InaSmuch as this is occurring at the very time when so many of the towns are having their annual meetings, citizens will have ample cause to consider how much effect the doings of nature have on their income and tax expenditures"
 Superintendent of Streets Thom- as J. Fleming said today that num- erous men of the department pres ently are engaged in effecting such repairs as the weather allows, filling ruts and holes with gravel, coating with tar in many places, to aid travelling on the highways until permanent repairs can be made fol- lowing the entire thawing of the ground.
 Reports Later
 The question of sidewalk repairs was raised at the last meeting of the board of aldermen and referred to the board of works which re- ferred the matter to the street su- perintendent. Report on progress of the work will be made at the next meeting of the public works board.
