Look Who Won
Sweep Swineer, Disappointment All Year Long
Finally Gets Vi TO Win Purse
BY LEWIS II. WALTER

II was now or never for Sweep
Swinger, when the 3-year-old son
of QUESTIONABLE went TO the post
in the Cranbrook Purse at the De-
troit Race Track yesterday. And
fortunately for Detroit racing fans
who have long waited for this colt
TO win, Sweep Swinger decided it
was now"
The colt decided just in time.
He came from last place on the
lbackstretch TO overhaul his rivals
one by one and sweep TO the front
with a charge which brought him
past Bing Crosby's pacesetting La
Tonga just few strides from the
wire.
Thus victory came at last to
colt which has been one of the dis
appointments of the Detroit turf
season and his Detroit owner.
Lieut.. T. D. Bull. The colt of
which Bull thought enough to
start in the Kentucky Derby
finally won his first race of the
year and finished in the money for
the second time in his campaign
as 3-year-old.
GOOD JUVENILE RECORD
Trainer A. G. Wilson and owner
Bull believed they had a bargain
when they claimed Sweep Swinger
from the Greentree Farm when he
made his third start at Hialeah
as a 2-year-old.
They still thought so at the end
of the year, in which Sweep
Swinger had won S11,580 and
three races. including the Endur-
ance Handicap of a mile and 10
yards at Bowie on November IL.
Something more important than
the S6.525 purse was attached TO
the colts big victory. 1t looked
like Sweep Swinger could 60 a
distance. might be Derby material.
Bull and Wilson had plenty of
company this spring when Sweep
Swinger ran fourth TO Colchis in
the Chesapeake Stakes, beaten
only two and half lengths. He
was right behind Alsab and Re-

Civil Popu|ace
Evacuated From
North Singapore
' MiIe-Deep Strip
On MoIoyo Side Of
Island Is Cleared

Earlier Story on Page A-l)
B, the Associated Press.
SINGAPORE, Jan. 28.-Orders
were issued today for the evacu-
alton by noon Friday of all civil
ians and livestock from a strip
one mile deep on the northern
shore of Singapore Island which
faces the Malayan mainland
across the narrow Johore Strait.
The edict came as the fighting
lines swayed about so miles above
the water hurdle which the Jap
anese must cross in any land based
attempt to invade this British Pa
cif1c bastion.
The nearest enemy approach ap-
parently was along the Malacca
Strait, on the west coast of the
peninsula, where the night war bull
letin said heavy fighting was taking
place at Rengit. south of Seng-
garang which is 48 miles from
Singapore.
AS the battle drew closer suburban
Singapore underwent another bomb
ing from 27 japanese planes which
quickly dropped their cargoes and
disappeared.
The night communique indicated
that the front, at least for the mo-
ment, was holding firm.
1t said there was no change in the
situation in the sector between
Aver Hitam and Kluang, the rail-
road center so miles to the north
and that there were no reports of
further enemy landings at Endau,
where the japanese put reinforce
ments ashore yesterday.
Enemy air activity" it said, has
been slight.
"A considerable number of Brit
ish and Indian troops who were cut
of in the Batu Pahat area have
now rejoined the main bodies" the
communique added.

Knox Says Navy
|sBusyFighting
Foe in All Seas
Secretary Regards
japanese, Nozis
As One Enemy

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. 28.-Secretary
Knox today pictured the Navy as
engaged in a gigantic job of pro-
tecting and fighting "in all the
seas and all the oceans" against
"one indivisible. total enemy"
1t is IAN immense assignment"
he said, but your Navy is doing the
job"
The Secretary. in a speech at a
Chicago Association of Commerce
luncheon, said that if some persons
misunderstood his remarks of Janu-
ary IL to the effect that Hitler is the
principal enemy. "the Navy didn't"
He said he wished to make 1t "em-
phatically clear" that he regarded
the war in the Pacific, the Atlantic,
Russia, China. Malaga, Libya as all
one war, one world revolution, one
bid for world mastery" Hitler
matched this ghastly conspiracy on
the whole world, but the enemy is
one enemy" he said
The Secretary discussed the vexa-
tions and misunderstood business of
security and the public information
policy generally" reminding Amer
leans wondering what the Asiatic
fleet is doing that the Japs ARE more
curious than you are"
Japanese uncertainty over what
our feet is doing or where it is
going. he said, is one such as has
caused every one Of you to ask
What is Hitler going to do next?'"
He said it had manifest strategic
value because mot knowing what
your adversary is going to do, you
have to disperse your forces and
attempt to be ready for anything"
japanese Are Jittery.
Mr.. Knox said a study Of what
Axis short wave stations call news"
indicated the Japs ARE jittery be-
cause they can't determine just
where the American fleet is and
what its objects may be-" He re-
lated.
For example On January l they
announced that they had sunk seven
OF our battleShips, no less. But by
the 18th a spirit OF prudence had
crept over them. and they magnani-
mously changed the figure to four,
thus restoring three to the surface,
where others may follow In due
course.
"On the 2lst, curiously enough,
their compilation omitted any men,
ton Of seaplane carrier whose
demise had been solemnly chron-
icled the week before"
He said he often was asked why
he wished to keep something secret
when the public already knew it
and had been talking about it.
My answer is that our enemies
being past masters at such tactics
Observation-Disclosures plant and
circulate rumors in order to con-
fuse us.
1T is not the circulation but the
confirmation of so-called facts that
is important. If official confirma-
ton is given these inside stories
that always circulate in wartime,
if some responsible member Of the
Government publicly backs them
up, the element of uncertainty is
destroyed, and our enemies are
then free to make their plans and
carry out their counter measures
with a far greater degree of pre-
cision and certainty"
Press, Radio Cooperate.
The press ard radio, Mr.. Knox
said, have co-operated perfectly.
And as a newspaperman, it is not
easy for me to be counseling re-
strictions. silence and faith, but as
knowledge and understanding Of the
problem spreads. skepticism and con-

War Powers Measure,
With Free Mail for
Troops, Passes Senate
Agencies Given Fourteen
Gronts Of Authority
To Aid Effectiveness

The Senate late today passed and
sent to the House the second war
powers bill, with a last-minute
amendment giving all members OF
the armed forces the right of free
postage.
The bill contains IA specific
grants of new authority to enable
various Government agencies to
prosecute the war more successfully.
Including penalties for violations OF
priorities. the right to take over
machine tools in factory not work
ing ON defense, and permission for
the Federal Reserve Banks to buy
Government bonds directly, instead
Of on the open market, to help
finance the war.
Several Senators expressed fear
the Federal Reserve feature might
lead to imitation, but the Senate re-
jected an amendment by Senator
Taft, Republican, of Ohio, to limit
such bond purchases by the Federal
Reserve Banks to 30-day notes and
to $4,000 100000 at any one time.
The free postage for all soldiers,
sailors and marines was adopted on
two separate roll calls. the first time
