 The count. whose speed last fall carried him to the two-year-old championship, ruled a heavy fayor- ite to win the "street car" Derby.
 The Derby nearly was called of at the request of Joseph P. East- man. ODT director, a month ago but won governmental approval when Vim said he would sell tickets only to patrons living in the Churchill Downs area.
 Only four colts are given a chance to stop the count over the mile and ofle-quarter route. They are Allen T. Simmons Blue Swords, w. E. Boeing's pair of Devils Thumb and Slide Rule, and Calumet Farms Ocean Wave.

Shortage i'm Milk.
ButterEXpIained
War Prosperity
Drains Market

Much of the butter shortage
due TO the fact that millions or
Americans who formerly couldn't
afford to buy il except OCCASION
ally now have the money and do
buy it.
This was revealed today in a
report on the butter situation
William Fitzgerald, district di-
rector Of the OPA, 10 explain why
butter was so hard 10 buy and
why its ration value had been
raised TO 10 points.
Butter production is running
near an all-time high, the report
shows. Estimates are that. this
year. 2,120000.000 pounds will ba
produced, which is slightly above
last years figure but 6 per cent
under the production for 194l.
MOST TO CIVILIANS
Civilians get 8 out OF every 10
pounds of butter produced this
year. the report shows.
Allotments for the armed forces
lend lease and other government
uses come 10 80 million pounds
a month or less than a pound for
every family IN the United States,
the report says.
Fitzgerald denied any butter
was being sent 10 Russia for
civilian use there.
Only 100 million pounds or 5
per cent of the years production
goes as morale building food 10
Russia. the report says. This
butter is distributed 10 only two
classes OF soldiers, wounded men
in military hospitals and front
line shock troops, II was asserted.
The war has brought ready
money TO millions Of people who
couldn't afford butter or could
only buy it occasionally, II was
stressed. This Is particularly
true in sections OF the country
where the butter consumption
was below the national averag
according 10 the report.
SHIPPING CURTAILED
Since demand is heavy butter
makers can sell more than the
normal percentage Of their pro-
duction near the producing cen-
tiers. which results in an even
scarcer supply IN towns and cities
some distance away from such
centerS, the report dlscloSes.
The increase IN ration point
values is designed TO push sup
plies out more evenly over the
country and checks show that the
increased point value has already
had this result, the report con-
cludes.

PRIESTS ARRESTED

The sequel came in widespread
arrests Of priests in northern
Italy. The Archbishop of Milan,
Cardinal Schuster, repeatedly was
placed under house arrest by the
geStapo in his bomb battered Mi
Ian palace.
The Germans have invoked a
clause of the decree issued earlier
by Field Marshal Rommel max
ing IT possible for priests TO be
tried before German court-mar-
tIal and deported or shot.

Plenty Assured
For City's Health

Despite a War Food AdminStra-
ton order limiting milk sales TO
what they were in June and the
present shortage which threatens
10 become more acute, Detroiters
were assured today that they
would receive an adequate supply
TO maintain health standards.
AT the same time, however,
home consumers who use more
than 90 quarts month and re-
ceive a rebate will, in effect. face
a price increase of one TO two
cents a quart.
The sliding scale which allows
consumers a cent a quart rebate
if more than 60 quarts are con-
Sumed in a month and two cents
if more than 90 quarts are con-
sumed will not be changed TO per-
NIT rebates at the lower amount
allowed, ii was revealed by Carl
+. Burger, secretary Of the De-
troit Milk Dealers Association.
LESS THAN DEMAND
AT present, the supply of
milk il about Is per cent less
than the demand and IL may
reach as high As 25 per cent at
times before the shortage Is al
leviated." said Howard +. Sim
mons. secretary manager Of the
Michigan Milk Producers AS
ISOLATION.
The WA order which goes
into effect Nov !, will limit the
supply 10 approximately 10 per
cent below the present demand
except for cream, butteTmilk,
chocolate milk and cottage cheese,
which will be limited 10 Is per
cent of the June production.
Flint, Saginaw, Bay City and
Lansing will also come under the
order. Grand Rapids was put
under similar regulations Oct 16.
ASKS CREAM EXEMPTION
I'VE have already asked the.
WA To exempt cream from the
a. per cent limitation because
its source OF supply does not
divert any milk from the supply
for the fluid market, and In
creasing the cream supply avail

said.
Although consumers will be
