Mr.. Wilson is Mr.. DiSalle's chief,
but Mr.. Disable, who is Il Democratic
politician from Ohio, was appointed
by Mr.. Truman before he appointed
Mr.. Wilson. The question now is
whether despite Mr.. Wilson's known
desire to keep his machinery wholly
free of politics, will not the politicians,
under Mr.. Disable, be able to do eN-
actly the thing that caused Admiral
Hoover to quit in disgust True, Mr.
Disable protests that all the recon-
mendations of the Democratic sera-
tors are given a three-way check. If
they do not measure up they are not
taken on, but eff capable they are
hired" Notwithstanding this dis
claimer, the extent to which the poll
ticians are being recognized brought
a shocked reaction from a number of
congressman, and Senator Lyndon B.
Johnson, Democrat of Texas, an
nounced that he had declined to make
any recommendation for ESA jobs ON
the ground that they should be filled
without regard to political consider
ations He said he had been asked by
both Mr.. DiSalle's office and the
Democratic National Committee to
send in names.

LITTLE SPORT
Modest Stables and Trainers
Major Rivals in Preokness
by the Asseeioied Pres.

BALTIMORE, May 1.-two
very modest racing stables with
comparatively unknown trainers
are on the threshold today of pos
|sibly knocking each other out of
fame and fortune in the 5000
Preakness.
Crossing each other in Satur-
days big Pimlico race will be
Hampton Stables Alerted and
Mrs. Nora Mikell's Repertoire.
The two are just as likely to be
favorites Saturday as any other
entries. Which points up not only
the wide open aspect of the 18th
Preakness but the whole 3-year-
|old situation as well.
Neither Alerted nor Repertoire
was thought well enough Of at
birth to be nominated for the
lPreakness by the owners. But they
later were sold and their new
masters made them supplementary
|eligibles for $2,250.
Repertoire and Alerted are by far
the best colts ever owned by Frank
Stout Of Maiden, Mass, and Mrs.
Mikell Of Dover, Del. Repertoire
Is only the fifth horse owned by
Mrs. Mikell, while Stout has been
in the turf sport only three years.
Got Bargain From Calumet.
Stout bought Alerted last Sep
tember 1S at Belmont for $10,-
900 from Calumet Farm, which
failed to come up with a Freak
ness horse this year. Stout acted
on the advice Of Jimmy Penrod,
who was promptly hired as
trainer. Penrod. 42-year- -old for
mer steeplechase rider, has vir-
tually lived with Alerted ever
since.
Repertoire was purchased by
Mrs. Mikell for $4,000 at the Sara
|toga yearling sales. His trainer,
45-year-old AL Jensen from Den
mark. used to train show horses
and like Penrod does everything
but brush Repetoire's teeth.
