Airborne al SO 10 |
Takes EPSON Derby
Before 10000
BY the Assoeioted Press

EPSON. England, June 5.-Air-
borne, a 50-to-1 shot who won only
one previous race in his career, won
the 1880 running of the Derby today
on a rain-soaked course before a
crowd estimated at 120,0 900, including
the royal family.
The dark horse long-shot closed
with great rush in the last 100
yards to overhaul Gulf Stream, the
favorite and hope of 82-year -old
Lord Derby for his fourth Derby
triumph, and finish length in
front.
A furlong from home, Gulf Stream
looked like the winner when the
gray Airborne turned loose his An
ishing kick to sweep to the wire
and pick up the $4,000 winners
purse.
Track Soft. Time Slow.
Running on a soft track, Airborne
posted one OF the slowest times for
the mile and 885 yards-2:443.. It
was far off the EPSON Downs Derby
record of 2:33+S, which the Grey
Mahmoud chalked up in 1896, and
was the slowest since Lord Wool
vington's 2:474s in 1922
Behind the two leaders at the wire
was Tom Lilley's Radiotheraphy, an
8-to-1 shot. Another outsider, Lord
Durham's White Jacket, was fourth.
Airborne Is owned by J. E. Fergu-
son, a plastic manufacturer with a
small stable. The colt is trained by
r. Perryman, who won the st. Led
ger last year with Chamossaire, and
was ridden by T. Lowrey each
chalking up his first Derby triumph
For Airborne it marked a COM
plete reversal of his form up to now
Previously, in six starts, he had
managed to score Crly once-in a
maiden race at Newmarket last
month.
His First Big Race Entry.
Airborne was purchased by Fergu-
son as yearling for $500 guineas
(sl3. $500 and is the first horse the
plastics manufacturer ever started
in classic race.

Khan also failed in his bid for a
fourth Derby winner when his we'll
backed, handsome Khaled, unbeaten
as a 2-year-old and second in the
1000 guineas last month, wound up
no better than eighth today.
Two others among the betting IA
vorites, Sir William Cookies Happy
Knight, 5-to-1 shot, and Lord AS
tors Fast and Fair, at 8 to l, failed
to finish among the first nine in the
field. Happy Knight won the 1000
guineas, first of England's triple
crown" races, in May. by four
lengths, whipping Khaled, Radio
theraphy and Gulf Stream.
Immediately after the race, the
King sent for Ferguson and con-
graduated him. The Royal Family
had made the trip to EPSON by rail
for the first time. It also was the
first derby Princess Elizabeth has
seen.

BITTER AT BRITISH

The conversation drifted around to Palestine, and the President ap- peared rather bitter at the way the British have handled things there. He complained that they did not understand the political problem involved in the United States, also that the British were destroying the moral position of the western powers in relation to Russia.
 Others at the table understood him to mean by this that British high-handedness in Palestine made it more difficult for us to protest Russian high-handedneSs elsewhere.
 Secretary Wallace heartily agreed with this and told Truman that the British were following the same unwise and immoral policy in In doneSia.
 The President explained that he was concentrating on the question of getting 100000 Jewish refugees into Palestine. These people have done nothing wrong, he said, other than to be born of a certain reli- zion. They deserved a chance, and he was going to see that they got it.
 We better" remarked New York's Paul Fitzpatrick, "or else we might just as well forget about holding elections in '46 or AS"

cerned with need for balancing the budget at the earliest possible moment As a matter ot fact there is far need for balancing the budget now than there in any prewar year, even if the budget is viewed through the mirage of oceans of money in the country.
 In the first place. swollen governmental appro- prations are making direct contribution to the infationary spiral Federal spending on grandlose scale resored to back in the l93Os to prime the pump" The pump now has more fluid money surgng through it than it accommodate, and there no longer is any justification for the government acting like monster spendthrift.
 Indeed deficit spending the scale We have prac- tced for the last 13 is dangerous Tn two ways during an imitation Not only does it add to the excess of money circulation but it also adds further instability to the very basis of our national credit system by loading the banks and other credit facilities with more government IOUs
 Mir Truman is seeking through extraordinary means to trim f.om the appropriations for the present fiscal year He speaks of S2200000000 which might be saved if government departments remain inside their budgets. Certainly there should be this much economy. Under present circumstances gov- ernmental departments should consider their appro- prations only the absolute maximum of spending. We'd like to see all of the bureau and department heads striving to which make the best record for economy.
 Sad to say, however, a savings of S22000000 900 would be little than a drop in the spending bucket The estimated total of expenditures for the year is S4l 800 000 000-which becomes rather dra- matic when we pause reflect that the figure is than half as great total national income (the income and earnings of everybody in the nation back in an average pre-War year.
 Our biggest expense now, of course, is for military purposes Just before our involvement in the war we were spending $1 GOO,OOOOOO year for military pur poses the figure this year, with immediate menace to our national security in sight is approximately Sl8OOO 100000 Estimates for military appropriations have increased $3 TOO 100000 since the year began
 Federal spending should be reexamined all along the line with eye trimming to the bone in order to balance the budgt and make szable beginning on repayment of $268 100000 Federal deb the interest charges on which alone amount to $50000O0 900 a year, not far from S1 apiece per week for every man. woman and child in the nation
 Obviously the military budgets should be included in the economy undertaking Our most immediate danger is not of war but of going broke and bust

Democratic Party, and had told him that while the Democratic Party might not always be on the right side, nevertheless it had a pretty good record and deserved the support of all Progressives.
 The President also paid tribute to former Secretary of Labor Fan ny Perkins.
 T would like to see that lady get the recognition she deserves" he observed.
 Note-Arkansa take issue with Alabamans that War Reconverter John Steelman is bona fide AL abaman. They say he was born in Arkansas. Bob Hannegan, who wants no blemishes on Missouri, also emphasizes that John Snyder is from Arkansas and only came to St. Louis recently.

A DIFFERENT ATTITUDE

Labor's Monthly Survey, publication of the American Federation of Labor, publishes an analysis of postwar strikes which places the great bulk of the blame for industrial obstruction the Congress of Industrial Organizations And if the figures don't lie the analysis leaves the CIO with a pretty sorry record for comparative achievement.
 According to the publication AFL unions won wage increases of more than S10000000OO without striking during the postwar l0-month period Mean while there were 100000 strikers participating in strikes big enough to tie up a significant part of American industry.
 Of the men strike, impending at least "signi- fcant" part of industry the Monthly Survey " per cent were in unions affiliated with the AFL; Is per cent were in the newly affiliated United Mine Workers and only per cent were in other AFL unions This is impressive comparison even if one makes proper allowance for strikes by independent unions, such the rail tie-up
 Wage boosts wrested at a conference table, or exacted under threat of strike, helped upset the national economy to extent during the last year but greater damage done by the United Auto Workers Steel Workers (and the United Mine Work ers) who tied up industrial reconversion as a part of the process of trying to force greater Had there been no strikes a and had workers generally been content to accept what wage increases could be obtained through negotiation and arbitration most of our shortage problems would have been solved by DOW

the Russians find out we mean business, Truman added, they will come around to our way of think ing.
 The President said he thought Jimmie Byrnes is doing a fine job in Paris and indicated that he backed him to the limit. He also said it is important that we oper- ate fair and square with the Rus sians in order to dispel the suspi- cion which has existed on both sides. He felt this eventually could be broken down, and no matter how long it took, Truman said, it must be broken down.
 The President also took a little poke at some of the career men in the State Department, remarking that they didn't fool him.

THE INNER CIRCLE DIMES

Others at the off-the-record din- ner were: Henry Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson, Attorney General Tom Clark, As sistant Secretary of War Stuart Si- mington, Democratic Committee Counsel Ed Prichard, OPA Admin istrator Paul Porter, Federal Com munications Chairman Charley Denney, Senator Hill of Alabama, Senator -elect John Sparkman of Alabama, Secretary of the Senate Leslie Biffle, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Ed Foley, White House Naval Aide Clark Clifford, White House Secretary Matt Con- nelly. Democratic National Trea- surer George Killion, Richard Sax ey of the Federal Power Commis- sion and Leon Henderson, former Roosevelt brain truster.
 The dinner was staged partly be- cause President Truman wanted to show insiders he was still close to Hannegan, despite the way he has snuggled up to Hannegan's rival John Snyder Around the White House they are still gossiping about the way Truman's special plane stopped in St. Louis after the Mis- souri primary to pick up Snyder leaving Hannegan, also in St. Louis to take a slow train back to Wash ington.
 However, Truman made 1t up to Hannegan at last weeks dinner also went out of his way to em- phasize that he was supporting Roosevelt's Liberal policies. Toward the end of the dinner, several other guests, including Alabama's new Senator Sparkman and Henry Wal lace, pulled their chairs up to the Presidents table. He really let his hair down.

WAR WITH RUSSIA?

Asked about war with Russia, Truman said he did not believe there would be any. He said there was a lot of talk about it, but no good reason why we should fight. He was convinced, he said, that the Russians didn't want war and he certainly knew the American people didn't. However, it was most important, he emphasized, that we take a fi.I~ attitude with Russia and show them we will not
 stand for any aggressive tactics. If

Triumph for PrOcrastinatiOn

 That householder of tradition who could fix the roof when it raining and needed to when it wasn't will know just what Congress up to in deferring until next session its longrange study of basic causes of labor management disputes. When it sought to act last spring it warned by some persons not to "act in hystera." Now, with the industrial front relatively peaceful Congress appears to hear an inner voice counseng it not to act in leisure either. One of President Trumans recommen- dations last May that joint Congressional committee be set up to study the whole problem of labor relations and bring in recommendations for legislation There is probably no justification for saving that he did this knowing how such proposal would turn out. But though the House acted with reasonable diligence, the Senate took two months to get to the subject and when it got to it discovered number of differences with the House. Those diff ferences relatively trivial in themselves have been big enough defer action at least until the next session of Congress. Perhaps any for procrastinaton was good enough for some Senators.
