LEXINGTON, KY, April D.
Mr.. Trouble. an impressive winner
Of the Blue Grass Stakes yester-
day. still hasn't answered all of
his Kentucky Derby questions. His
trouble may start when they load
the Derby's 1876 pounds on him.
Oil Capitol was carrying the
Derby's full impost in the Blue
Grass when he pushed Mr.. Trou-
BILE. with only 121 pounds, all the
way to the wire.
Both Sired by MahmOud.
Otherwise the two colts have
one thing in common as both are
sons of the imported Mahmoud.
Yesterdays meeting was their Sec

it marked the second time Mr..
Trouble. owned by c. v. Whitney,
got to the wire first.

by Tom Gray, Tulsa oil man, out

out by a neck for show money.
Your Host, the California
speedster, didn't enter the Blue
Grass in which the Whitney colt
collected $4,000. He was vanned
back to Louisville to prep for
next Tuesdays Derby Trial at
Churchill Downs.

Hawley was fourth after weaken

was followed in order by Reverie

Though beaten twice by Mr..

to eliminate at least one eligible

By the Associated Press

F. LONDON, Feb. 25.-Political
observers say Thursdays election
appears to have been the closest
vote since Liberal Prime Minister
Herbert Asquith was returned to
power in January, 1910, with only
two more seats than his Conserv-
ative Party rivals.
Mr.. Asquith was able to organ
ize an effective government be-
cause, in the same Parliament,
there were a substantial number
of Labor and Irish Nationalist
Party members. with whom he
made working agreement.
The difference between that
situation and the present one, the
observers say, is that in addition
to the Labor and Conservative
members, only small group of
eight Liberals has been elected to
the next Parliament.
There is no certainty these
liberals would agree to cooperate
with Labor, and in any event
there are not enough of them to
add weight to the coalition.
The decline of the Liberal Party
set the stage for the closeness OF
the present race.

This Changing World
Narrow Labor Majority Raises Doubt
About Workability of New Government

sured that there is still a place
and a big place-for them in the
British political scene. If they
failed to win a majority, they
have nevertheless brought to
the surface in powerful express
sion the unwillingness of the
British people-at least any great
majority of them-to pursue the
Socialist path much farther.
What does it all mean as far as
BritainS relations with the rest of
the West are concerned? Prob
ably no great immediate overturn.
But it does keep off the British
political scene man who would
have been a much more fiery sup
porter of Western policies than
are the Laborites. And that is
not to deny the devotion of the
Attlee regime to the Western
democratic cause.
Reds Completely Defeated.
There may be further implica-
tions, however. in the instability
of Parliament for the kind of gov
ernment we will have to deal with
in the future. One of the strong
points in the Vests political struc-
ture has been the stability of the
British government. This has set
Britain apart from France. for in
stance, where a large number of
splinter parties has created con-
dition of instability which has
made it difficult for the American
Government to know whom it
would have to deal with. In
France. of course, the situation
was complicated by a powerful
Communist organization, which is
almost completely lacking in Brit
ain.
The complete defeat which the
Communists suffered should con-
vince them that they aren't going
anywhere with the British peo-
pie. They will keep on trying to
foment strikes and disorder, how
ever. But the British government
will be justified, on the basis Of
the feeble showing made by the
Reds, in slapping down it's Red
element even more severely.
All in all the British election is
not a discouraging factor for those
people in this country who have
resented Britain's use Of Ameri-
can dollars to support socialism.
If a new election should be forced,
as has been indicated, by the in
ability of the Laborites to handle
their slim majority the prospect
would be even greater for an abb
solute Conservative majority.

affairs. They are required to pay
taxes and serve in the armed
forces, but are permitted no voice
in the Government.
All this surely would have puz-
zled the japanese. They would
have been equally puzzled to learn
that Congress undertakes to act
as the common council for the
big and busy city of Washington,
Their brief look at Congress would
have revealed that Congress has
plenty of other things to do. In
no other city, not even in Boston,
had they encountered a council OF
531 members. 1t surely would have
habbergasted them to know that
body of that size has to pass on
problems such as the regulation OF
BARRIERS, the removal of weeds, the
establishment of a police band
the destruction of starlings and
the grave question of whether
patrons of Washington saloons
should sit down or stand up while
being served.
Nothing So Silly in Japan.
There was nothing that silly in
Japan under the Emperor. Moth
ing that silly now under Mac
Arthur.
The japanese naturally would
inquire politely: Who is RESPONSE
BILE for this state of affairs, the
Democrats or Republicans?" They
could get their answer from a
letter written by President Tru-
man to Speaker Rayburn last
summer. The President, urging
action on the pigeon -holed bill,
said:
There is nothing partisan
about this proposal. The platforms
of both major parties urge home
rule for the District. The bill
which passed the Senate unani-
mously, received the support of
Doth Republlcan and Democratic
members of that body. I am sure
the great majority of the people
of Washington want home rule.
I am equally sure that they ought
to have it without further delay.
I hope that the House will not
adjourn this session without COM
pleting action on this important
measure.
But the House did adjourn
without completing action and the
pigeon-hole still has the bill that
would remove the stigma of Sec
ond-class citizenship from the
people who live in the National
Capital, stigma no longer suf-
fered by any citizen of Japan.

JET Crash Fatal 10 Two;
British Flyer Killed
By the Associoted Press

DAYTON, Ohio, Feb. 25.-The
explosion and crash of a four
engine jet bomber yesterday cost
the lives of two airmen-one of
them a British officer.
They were identified by Wright
Patterson Air Force Base officials
as:
Wing Comdr. Derek S. Pain, 81,
a Royal Air Force exchange Of
f1cer whose British address was
listed as Barclays Bank, Ltd, Up
per Norwood, London.
M/Sergt. Darel R. Snyder, 81,
OF Washington Courthouse, Ohio
Comdr. Pain, whose rank cor
responded to that of a USAF lieu
tenant colonel, was believed to
have been plotting the plane when
it exploded.
A third man, Capt. John L.
Armstrong of Fairborn, Ohio, es-
capped death with a low-level
parachute jump miles northwest
Of the Wright-Patterson Field,
where the bomber was based.
Comdr. Pain came to this coun-
try some months ago with his
wife Margaret and their 49,
month-old daughter, who live at
Wilmington, Ohio. Comdr. Pain
held the Distinguished Flying
Cross, but Wright-Patterson off,
cials said they did not know
whether he was decorated by the
RAF or the USAF.
Sergt. Snyder is survived by
his wife and 18-month- -old son
at Washington Courthouse and
his mother at Sabina, Ohio. He
was an aircraft maintenance tech
nician and had been with the Air
Force II years.
