cade passed l8 bands and throngs
estimated at more than 100000.
A round of receptions, dinners and
parties, unrivalled since the visit of
King George vi and Queen Elizabeth
to Washington in 1898 followed. That
night President Truman was host at
a state dinner in the White House.
Perhaps the highlight of the Wash
ington stay was President Aleman's
appearance before joint session Of
Congress Thursday Friday he went
to New York for an impressive re-
ception before the city's millions and
another round of receptions.
Visit to West Point
Monday the Mexican President will
visit West Point for full dress re-
view at the U. S. Military Academy.
Late that night he will fly to Chat
tanooga to sample southern hospital
ity and visit the Tennessee Valley
Authority, vast hydroelectric plant.
Wednesday, President Aleman is to
arrive by plane at Kansas City to re-
ceive an honorary degree from Kansas
City University. He will return to
Mexico that night.
The Aleman visit is sequel to the
Mexican trip early in March by Pres
ident Truman. The warm welcome
experienced by both Chief Executives
is symbolic of the close and friendly
ties between this country and its sis
ter republic to the south.
Good NeighbOr Policy
When he stepped off the plane in
Washington, President Aleman re-
ferred to the Good Neighbor policy.
Greeting Mr.. Truman, he said: 'There
is nothing to hide or dissemble in
political relations between Mexico and
the US. We deal together in the
broad light without subterfuge or
reservation"
There are political and economic
advantages to both countries. Early
in the week, the international Bank
for Reconstruction and Development
announced that Mexico had formally
applied for loan of $208,875, 900.
The Aleman government plans to
use the funds for development of ir.
rigation and hydroelectric projects
railroads. harbors, pipeline and high
way construction.

Reds Lose
In Japan

A PRIL was the month for cleo
IA tions for the japanese, taking
their first steps toward democ-
Tacy.
Japanese Communists lost
ground in the four nationwide
elections in April. The last was for
eouncilmen in prefectural, municipal
and village assemblies on Wednesday.
In the most important election, for
the 466-member House of Representa-
tlves 10 days ago, Communists won
only four seats. The Party held six
seats in the old House and had hoped
to win at least Is in the new one.
The moderately-le Social DEM
ocratic Party won plurality in the
House, with the Liberal and Dem
Ocratic parties-conservat despite
their. names-running second and
third. Since no party won majority,
a coalition government is in prospect
when the Diet organizes under the
new constitution later this month.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur, supreme
Allied commander in charge of occu-
patton, praised Japanese voters who,
he said, firmly and decisively rejected
Communist leadership.
Neither Left Nor Right
They overwhelmingly chose mod
crate course sufficiently centered from
either extreme, Macarthur said, to
insure preservation of freedom and
enhancement of individual dignity.
With Allied occupation thousands
of Communists were freed from
prison cells. This philosophy and its
leaders, said the supreme commander
were given fullest liberty and free
dom of political action in open and
fair competition with democratic
forces and beliefs.
1T thus had its full chance the
general said, land en- its merit:
failed"
The choice for the first time lr
Japanese history, reflects the free vii
of the majority as against the totah
tartan dictates of minority.
The recent elections, Macarthur
said, were the last preparatory stel
necessary for inauguration of the new
constitution which he called among
the most liberal and progressive ma
tional charters in the world.

Semyon P. lvanov, described as the

The newspaper said d BolShakov
hadn't taken Ivanov's work seriously,
had tried to picture him as a faker

was pulled off his job with the excuse
that he was being freed from ad-

STYMIE WINS
AGAIN; PASSES
WHIRLAWAY
By SID FEEDER

NEW YORK, June % (F)-As
n Texan to another, Assault did
stymie an S18, 900 favor today, and
Stymie-Who likes money as much
as the next fellow - took advan-
tage of it to skip into second place
on the list of the worlds leading
money-winning horses.
The favor the Clubfoot Comet
did was to stay home in his barn
during the running of the Cues
tionnaire handicap at Jamaica,
which was worth $18,225 to the
galloper who showed up first at
the finish. With his old Texas side
kick, who has beaten him the last
four times they've tangled, out OF
1t, it was practically no trouble at
all for Stvmie to come from last
place and waltz home by three
lengths over the Louisiana Lopez.
Brown Mogul. Concordian took
third, another three lengths back.
AS a result, the cheapest bar
gain in racing history-pigeon fan
cier Hirsch Jacobs clsimed
Stymie for a mere 81, 800 from
Robert Kleberg. Jr., who owns
Assault-added the S18, 225 to his
previous 1856, 435. This gave him
q bank account of S574.660 and
moved him up past Whirlaway's
1851: 161 in the financial standings.
