SECURITY COUNCIL
FACES NEW TESTS

LONDON, Jan. 21-R-Russia
asked the United Nations Security
Council tonight to consider the
troubled situation in Greece, and
the Soviet Ukraine requested that
the Indonesian situation also be
placed before the council.
Thus two fresh international
disputes, in addition to the COM
plant lodged earlier by Iran against
Russia, confronted the Security
Council-set up only last week as
the United Nations organ en-
powered to keep the worlds peace
by force, if necessary.
Earlier, the Political and Securi-
ty committee Of the United Nations
Assembly approved establishment
of a special commission to devise
controls for atomic energy, shortly
after a United States delegate

growing steadily.
The emotional strains of war
and now of the postwar, with its
shortages, uncertainties and prob
lens of REIMBURSEMENT, have con-
tributed to nervous tension. For
many people it has been diff
cult to enjoy the benefits OF
sound, refreshing sleep. Conse-
quently thousands have develop
ed the sleeping pill habit with
out realizing that they have be-
come dependent on such drugs
and without any comprehension
Of how dangerous the habit may
be. AS a person continues to use
sleeping-inducing drugs, he re-
quires larger and larger doses
to produce the desired effect,
and this may lead to serious ill-
ness, mental crack-ups, or even
death.
Sleeping pills should be used
only when prescribed by a doc
tor and only for as long a period
as recommended by the doctor.
Prescription for such pills should
never be refilled without the spe-
cific order of the doctor. Habit
is an insidious thing; ono es-
tablished, il is hard to break,
and anyone who finds himself
unbale to sleep without the aid
of drugs should seek hsi doctors
help in breaking the habit.

| WASHlNGION-ln its recruiting

painted pretty rosy picture of the
future for veterans in the aviation
field. Now that the war is over,
discharged Air Force veterans are
discovering just how limited the
opportunities are for cashing in
On their Army experience. AS a
result, there has been a pessimistlc
reaction among these men, many
of whom are now convinced that
there is absolutely no chance in
peacetime aviation for ex-service'
men. This is about as incorrect
as was the Arny's over-optimistic
view.
During the war the normal flow
of new blood into private avla-
ton practically stopped, with the
obvious exception of aircraft
factory workers. The most deslra-
BILE men were going into the SER
vice.
Now the industry is anxious to
get these men back. But they are
after the best of the crop, and the
hardest point to get across is that
these men need additional train
ing TO fit them for jobs in private
aviation.

SIX MILLION DAY
Seen FOR RACING

NEW YORK, April 7.-(P)-From
the way racing was welcomed
back to New York yesterday under
deluge of greenbacks, the first
S6,OOO 000-betting day in american
turf history doesn't seem far away.
Despite the abolishment of the
daily double, a record opening day
turnout of 55,961 wagered a new
firstday mark of $3,412,875 on the
seven-race card at Jamaica. While
this is under Jamaica's an-time
records of 64,670 and $4,349, 1886,
respectively, it compares to last
years opening day figures of A.
179 and $2,471, 1856 and shows that
the upward trend of the last few
years is still dominant.
Back in 1910 when pari-mutuel
betting was legalized in New York
experienced racing men believed
the LOCO, 000-day to be the ultimate
in daily wagering. But by 1943
million-dollar days had become
commonplace and in last years re-
cord $3.50, 1858, 100 betting total there
were seven $4,O0O,0OO days and the
present high of $5,O16,745 set at
Belmont on September %.
In view of these upward trends
which have baffled the experienced
guessers, to quote the 1945 report
Of the New York racing commits
sion, it is hard to predict what
heights racing will reach. 1t is
felt, however, that it is in a healthy
condition and growing rapidly in
popularity"
In other words, with more bet
ting machines available this year,
the $4,000, ,000-day seems possible
this year.
