NEW YORK, Sept. %. - Lou

Rockingham Park included that
15-race program for war relief
last spring, has come up with a
new one for the fall meeting.

war bond buyers at Rock. Z.
Lou probably expected to get
more "steak" horses than stake
horses, and they might be a good
buy, too, these days-so you can
imagine his surprise when the
first reply came in from Emer-
son (Valdina) Woodward of
Texas, offering a yearling sired
by Bahram, the $4,000 Eng

look very good with such con-

IA RIO GRAND START
When little Rio Grande Col
lege in Ohio launched its sea-
son Thursday by absorbing a
$50 licking from Louisville u,
it must have set a record of some
sort. 1t was the beginning
of Rio Grande's fifth straight
campaign without a victory
and no one would be more sur
prised than the players if they
failed to reach the end the same
way.

TORONTO, Nov. 26.-Peoples
Of the United Nations had warn

result, unless they came quickly
to "a common understanding of
what they fight for and what
they hope for after the war is

nothing" the former Republican
presidential candidate declared last
night at a rally for the Canadian

There had been speculation that
Mr.. Willkie might encounter some
coolness because Of his recent public
criticism of Prime Minister Church.

our own"
Offering no specific program him
self, Mr.. Willkie asserted II am quite
deliberately trying to provoke dis
cussion" between the peoples of the
world and added that he lived in
constant dread" that the war would
end before these peoples had agreed
on their war objectives.
He noted the postwar program
advocated by Stain included "abo-
htlon OF racial exclusiveness, equal
ity OF nations and integrity of their
territories, liberation of enslaved
nations and restoration of their SOW

nation to arrange its affairs as it
wishes, economic aid to nations that
have suffered, restoration of demo-
cratic liberties, the destruction of
the Hitlerite regime"

There is one major fault to be
found with this, Mr.. Willkie said,
and that is that Stain limited his
program to the Allied coalition and
1T should be applied to the world. I"
He declared the end of the World
War was only an armistice and
warned that If the next peace is to
be lasting and worth sacrificing for

He concluded that we must eduI

MADRID, Nov. 26.-All members
of the 1888, 1899, 1910 and 1941
classes in all military regions were
called up today in Generalissimo
Francisco Frances recently ordered
partial mobilization.
The order, broadcast by the Span
ish national radio, will give Spain
an active army of about 750, 600 men,
according to informed estimates.
Conscripts of these four classes
from what was the Republican zone
during the civil war had been in
service ever since the war ended in
1899, so the order affects only those
from the Nationalist zone.
The order made no mention of the
two civil war zones. This was the
first time since the war that such
mention had been omitted from a
military order. indicating an official
desire to signify the union of all
Spaniards in the effort to keep the
country out of war.
All men affected by the order must
report to their stations by Novem-
Der 20.
Before Franco authorized par
tial mobilization the army was
estimated at 500, 900 men. Besides

President on Shift
In Monpower Control
Ry JESSE O. IRWIN.

President Roosevelt does not
plan at present to shake up his
cabinet and place all manpower
controls in the Labor Depart
ment, union circles reported
today.
Presidents William Green of the
American Federation Of Labor and
Philip Murray of the Congress Of
Industrial Organizations were de-
scribed as feeling assured that the
President does not now contemplate
such action.
Rumors in congressional and labor
quarters yesterday caused the two
union chieftains to hurry here from
New York for an unannounced con-
ference at the White House last
night. On leaving Mr.. Green and
Mr.. Murray refused to comment.
Congressional and labor sources
close to them appeared, however,
to be quite pleased over what the
President had said.
Before the union heads arrival at
the White House, newspapermen OBJ
tanned denials from Secretary Of In
terror Ickes, Secretary of Labor
Perkins and chairman of the War
Manpower Commission who were
involved in the proposed shift, ac-
cording to the reports.
Gist of Reports.
The reports were to this effect:
Mr.. Ickes was to assume the labor
portfolio with all manpower controls
being shifted to that agency and
placed under him; Mr.. McNutt was
to be elevated to a cabinet position
by taking over the Interior De-
partment, and Miss Perkins was to
take over direction of the Federal
Security Agency and the ONCE of
Defense Health and Welfare Serv-
ices, which are now Mr.. McNutt's
responsibility.
Secretary IckeS admitted that he
had heard the reports, but denied
there had been any White House
discussions. He added that he was
satisfied with his present ONCE. Miss
Perkins said she had not heard the
reports, and thanked newspapermen
for passing along the information.
Mr.. McNutt- was emphatic in deny
ing the reports as far as they az
fected his ofnceS.
Mr.. Green and Mr.. Murray had
been honored guests at a dinner Of

Eden Again Shuts Off
House Of Commons
Debate on DarIan
Voice Of Fighting French
Was Not SiIeneed by
British, He Says
By the Associated Press.


LONDON, Nov. 26.-The Brit
ish government showed no in
clination today to give dissident
members a chance to debate in
the House of Commons over 1t.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's
agreement with Admiral Jean
Darlan. $50.
Following his Endorsement yester-
day Of President Roosevelt's inter-
probation OF the agreement as tenn
porary military expedient, Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden told the
House today that he coud not guar
antee that the government would
find time for discussion of a motion
by II members expressing disap-
proval of the dealings with Darlan.
Under wartime procedure, the
government has full control over
House debates.
A Foreign Office commentator,
meanwhile. declared there was no
truth in a London Daily Mail re-
port from Madrid that Darlan was
sending a mission to Britain to con-
fer on the defense and feeding of
North Africa.
Mr.. Eden told the House it was not
through British action that the voice
of the Fighting French was silent
yesterday after uninterrupted broad
casts of encouragement to France
since June, 1910.
Il have every hope and am doing
everything I can to bring about a
resumption at the earliest possible
moment" he said.
AS sponsors of the protest motion
pressed Mr.. Eden to set q time for
debate, the Foreign Secretary as
serted that the issue was mot pure
ly, or even mainly, a British ques-
ton" since the United States is the
principal party and military power
in North Africa.
Laborite Aneurin Bevan asked If
it were conducive to good relations
with the United States to say these
unpleasant and undesirable policies
are being imposed on us by the
United States?"
II never said anything of the
kind" Mr.. Eden retorted.
Earlier william GALLAGHER, the
Houses one Communist member,
asked If a protocol had been ar
ranged making Darlan permanent
high commissioner, but Mr.. Eden,
having echoed Yesterday President
Roosevelt's assertion that the Darlan
arrangement was temporary, did not
answer.

QUARTERS, Australia, Nov. 26.-
Allied bombers sank two troop
laden Japanese destroyers and
probably sank a third last night
to wreck the third enemy at
tempt within a week to reinforce
the battered Buna Coma lines
against American and Australian
attacks, it was announced today.
The official list of japanese war
craft sacrificed since last Thursday
night in efforts to relieve 1t. Gen.
Tomatore Horii's forces on their
narrowing coastal strip thus rose to:
One cruiser, four destroyers and
two landing boats sunk.
One destroyer blasted heavily and
probably sunk.
One destroyer damaged.
Beaten back mile by mile, jap
anese ground forces nevertheless put
up bitter fight from a jungle front
approximately IL miles long and
from one half to miles deep.
Jungle Made Fortress.
Heavy fighting continues in low,
tropical jungle, interspersed with
swamp and tidal creek, rendering
movement and maneuver slow and
difficult" the communique said. I'VE
are now encountering carefully pre-
pared positions, strongly fortified
with barbed wire, dugouts and all
the defensive attributes of a for
treSs."
Zero fighters appeared again to
lend the japanese troops aerial sup
port after an absence of several days.
Allied flyers likewise were in con-
slant action.
A light cruiser and four destroyers
were reported to have made up the
f1otilla seeking to land reinforce
ments under cover of darkness.
Allied airmen spotted them about so
miles of Cape Cretin in Huon Gulf.
Flying Fortresses, North American
B-25s and Australian Beauforts i'm
mediately went into action with
flares and 500-pound bombs.
Explosives loosed by Fortress
scored twice near the stern of one
destroyer.
Troops Seen Swimming.
Fires broke out almost immediate
ly. The vessel sank within an hour
and Japanese troops were seen
swimming in the flare-lit sea.
The Beauforts, manned by Aus
tralians, accounted for the second
destroyer with direct hits.
Combined bombing of Fortresses,
B-25s and Beauforts severely dam
aged the third destroyer.
This latter was dead in the water
for Is minutes and then was seen
heading for Iland (the New Guinea
coast) at a speed of knots" the
communique said. "It is probable
she also sank, as our rear air eche-
Ions searched her possible area of
position without sighting her"

West Of Stolingrud
3y the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Nov. 26.-The Ger
man high command said the
Russian offensive had spread on
a broad front west and north
west of Moscow, as well as on
two sides of Stalingrad in the
south, and admitted for the first
time that the Russians were
fighting less than 1875 miles from
the Latvian border.
It's broadcast communique said the
Red Army had driven pockets in the
line at places northwest of Moscow
and was attacking at one place west
of Toropets, which is 1875 miles from
Latvia. The gains were wiped out
by counterattack, it was claimed.
"In the region south of Kalinin
and in the sector southeast and west
of Toropets the enemy started an
expected attack November Is on
broad 'front.'" the communique said.
Repulse Of Attacks Claimed.
an fighting which was severe at
some places all attacks were repulsed
yesterday with serious and bloody
losses for the enemy. Local pockets
which the enemy was able to create
momentarily were wiped out by
counterattacks and 10 Soviet tanks
were destroyed.
The wording of the communique
suggested that it was in the sector
northwest of Moscow, not at Stain
grad, that the German high COM
mand had expected the Russian
winter offensive.
The fighting, as described by the
Germans, could easily be along a
200-mile front.
South of Kalinin the Russians
evidently were attacking the salient
about Vyazma and Rzhev, 100 miles
west and 1875 miles northwest of
Moscow, respectively. Thence a
Russian salient curves to the north
around Rzhev and. westward to
Toropets, 235 miles west of Moscow.
Toropets. few miles northeast of
Velikie Luki, apparently was being
attacked from more than one side.
Violent Tank Attacks.
The Germans said the Russians
continued to attack violently with
tanks and infantry between the
Volga and Don at Stalingrad and
westward inside the big Don bend,
but that the attacks were repulsed.
Moscow dispatches said the Ger
mans evidently had determined not
to withdraw from Stalingrad and
were fighting a wide-open war of
maneuver, even with their fianks
exposed and their rear pressed in
a corridor only 80 miles wide or less.
Russian communiques thus far
had not mentioned offensive action
northwest of Moscow. The Russian
high command however, habitually
waits for two or three days for an
offensive to be well developed before
making an announcement.
