Alsab Still
Given FavOr
BY Jack Mahon

Louisville, Ky, Apr. 30-lNS-
The 1912 Kentucky Derby puzzle,
which should be covered by guys
like Edgar Wallace, Ellery Queen
and the Shadow instead OF a gang
OF poor. bewildered sports scribes,
provided another amazing twist
today when we learned via a can
vass OF the local hardboots, that the
citizens of Old Kentucky are liable
TO make poor, overWorked Alsab
the betting favorite in the 6Sth an.
nual run for the roses Saturday.
This is not doubletalk: it's the
stark. raving, truth. Alsab. which
has been classed by those who saw
him in the Derby trial Tuesday as
looking like a WPA worker after an
honest weeks toll, was rated
slight favorite here today. And
many Of the locals think he'll go
to the post the public choice.
How horse which every learned
horseman says plainly shows the
effects OF oyerwork. can still hold
the support of the public after los.
ing seven races in succession, is
one OF the greatest Derby mysteries
OF all time
II he were a Kentucky-owned
colt, there might be some explana-
ton. But Alsab is owned by Mrs.
Al SABBATH Of Chicago.
The only explanation we could
get is that many of the folks think
the son OF Good Goods has been
brought along for this race and
was not perseyered with in the
Chesapeake at Havre de Frace two
weeks ago or in the Derby trial.
Others are sticking with him be-
cause of his tremendous heart.
The truth, as we see it is, fo-
the first time in Heaven alone
knows when. the good citizens Of
the Blue Grass are as bewildered
as the citizens along Jacob Beach
when a to 3 shot runs out OF the
money to ruin a four horse parley.
They just don't know whom to
go TO this time.

Detroit Tigers
Come to Life

Boston. Apr 30--INs-Although
they might play erratically at times,
the Detroit Tigers are fighters and
there wasn't a Boston fan who
would doubt the Tigers tenacity
today.
With two down in the ninth in
ming of yesterdays tilt against the
Red Sox and trailing to 0, the
Tigers suddenly came to life to
score four runs, take a to de-
cision and wind up in second place
in the American League pennant
chase.
The rubber tilt OF the three game
series was to be played today with
Charley Fuchs pitching for Detroit
and Dick Newsome for Boston.
Up until the time they started
their rally yesterday the Tigers
had not gotten a man past second
due TO the effective hurting OF young
Yank Terry. After two were out
in the ninth. Ned Harris walked.
So did Higgins.
Bill Hitchcock singled to left,
jamming the bases and then Birdie
Tebbetts raped a base hit to left
scoring Harris and Higgins with
the tying runs. Mace Brown re-
lieyed Terry and Don Ross singled
to center scoring Hitchcock with
the winning run. Bloodworth singl-
ed Tebbetts home for the final Tig.

Something to Remember

If you have boy serving his country in the Army or the Navy, whose life may depend upon the delivery of supplies to the four corners of the earth read this:
 In Portland, Oregon, where conditions are similar to those in hundreds ot other American cities, free-born Amer ican citizen answered the call for men to man new freighter going into the transport service. He had waited around for some days before the ship was ready and when it came time to sign up was about out of money. He then found that before he could go on board as seaman he had to pay the labor union about $15OO He didn't have the money. For tunately he found friend who loaned 1t to him.
 Words are inadequate to express ones opinion of such a condition. Here IS situation where an American citizen can't get job on an American ship car rying American-made supplies to Amer ican armed forces that are fighting to preserve this nation, until he pays tribute to private labor bosses. If the closed shop can tie up our country in this manner, what personal liberty have we to DoaSt about?
 In free country, man should have the right to join a labor union Ii ne so desires, and he should have the right not to join if he so desires. Certainly no prl- vate organization should have the power to deny a man the right to work in war effort, until that man can first pay It a cash tribute. How long the rank and file of American citizens will put up with such conditions remains to be seen.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-08
The Lid's Being Lifted

Strictly political was the talk given by Colonel Ellery Allyn, secretary of the Republican State Central Committee, the other night. There isn't too much doubt about the label, after reading some of the stories carried by the press of the state, for there's no doubt but what copies of extracts from the speech were in the hands of the press in time for publication one day after delivery. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, and we don't object to it.
 All we seek to do in an instance of this kind is to call attention, editorially, to the fact that if what Colonel Allyn said about the Democrats is true, then it's simply case of copying past masters at the art of politics in appointments. Dur ing the reign of the late < Henry Rora- back in COP politics in Connecticut no party ever had so secure and complete a hold on the state government and all it's ramifications than did Republicans. There was no disputing or gainsaying this fact
 It remained for Democrats under Dr. Wilbur L. Cross and Governor Robert A. Hurley to vary the system of concentrat- ing patronage within the one small group It may not be perfect as it's still prac- ticed here, but, nevertheless, the system of appointments today is so much more balanced than it was fifteen and twenty years ago that there's no com parison. That's why we always fail to sympathize with onyone who claims that Democratic officials today have scant regard for public interest, but are entirely sef-centered. It means but one thing an election is in the offing.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-08
What About China?

The leaders and thinkers of China have two principal aims today. The first of sourse, is to beat Japan. Until that has ,een accomplished, nothing else can mat CT. The second is to obtain from Great sritain and the United States some guaranty that when the war has been von, China will be treated as an equal. there is nothing theoretical or abstract tbout this second goal. China isn't social climbing at our expense. She is only asking that we make good on some of the nice things we are saying about de- mocracy and about the rights of all peo- pies to make their own governmental mistakes in their own ways.
 Specifically, China wants to know what we are going to do about extraterritori- ality and exclusion. Extraterritoriality is the multiSyllabic name for that privilege, which all western nations have claimed and exercised, of establishing on Chinese soil little private domains of our own, in which the Chinese had no more rights than in Tasmania.
 It is as though, in the Chinatown of San Francisco or New York, territories had been set aside over which the United States relinquished all control. Chinese soldiers would guard them; Chinese courts would function; our police could not touch criminals in those Chinatowns. Needless to say, neither we nor the Brit ish, the French or the Germans would consider granting China such rights, Why, then, should we expect the Chi nese to feel happy when we, through su- p0rior military might, have enforced such an ignominious bargain upon China?
 Exclusion is the antithesis of extra territoriality. While we force China to admit any occidental at his will, and waive all control over him while on selected Chinese soil, we forbid Chinese to enter the United States at all = except temporarily, under drastic control - or to become citizens under any circum- stances. This rankles almost as much as extraterritoriality But the argument here is less clean cut. There are import ant economic angles. The great difficulty springs from oriental ability and willing ness to work for few cents day, to live on rice and water, and thereby to compete for jobs on basis that no Amer ican should be expected to consider. With the kindliest of feeling toward Chinese, and all gratitude and admiration for the splendid fight they are making, there is a question whether we should make any sweeping promises about exclusion. But we can proclaim to the world, at once, that after we have helped chase the Japs we shall pull out our troops and renounce forever any claim to extraterritoriality in China
