MIAMI. Fla. Jan. 19.-Greek
Ship, the Brookmeade Stables
Mighty Mouse" outlasted six
hard-driving opponents in a close,
tough race today to capture Hia-
leah's $4,000 Royal Palm Han
dicap.
Although carrying the heaviest
load of 122 pounds, the small
brown horse known around the
stables as Mighty Mouse" be-
cause of his habit Of beating the
giants on his good days, bested
c. B. Bohn's Why Not Now in
the final charge to win by half q
length.

behind Why Not Now and q nose
IN front of Mrs. E. L. Hopkins

futile effort to capture the Royal
Palm for the fourth successive
year.
AIerted Early Leader.
A solid choice of the 1880 fans
at 8 to S, Greek Ship, winner of
five stakes and runner-up in five
others during the 1850 campaignI
but less successful last year, added
another $8,425 to the Brookmeade
cof1ers and returned $50 to the
straight bettors. His time for the
mile and a furlong was 1:4s2s.
Why Not Now paid $11 to place
and Saxony 1910 to show.
Three Rings broke in front, but

the lead at the first turn with
Greek Ship trailing him by al
half length. They dueled neck and
neck along the back stretch, with
Greek ship carving out a half
length lead at the three-quarter

Why Not Now Challenges.
At the head of the stretch
Alerted dropped back and Why
Not Now moved up out of the
closely-kunched pack to challenge
Greek Ship. but the Brookmeade
6-year-old stood him off in the
final drive as Saxony nosed in to
capture the show honors when
Three Rings ran wide at the turn.
A victory for Three Rings, win
ner Of half of the earlier sixth

have made him the second

Approves
Bill for Auctioninq
Of Steel Industry
AII-Night Session Backs
Restoration of Plants
To Private Ownership
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Nov. 28.-The House
of Commons okayed a bill to auc-
ton off the nationalized iron and
steel industry in an all-night ses-
sion which ended at 9:06 am. to-
day.
Weary members began strag-
Cling back to the House less than
two hours later for another days
business.
The bill to restore the nations
iron and steel plants to private
ownership received a second read
ing-approval in principle-by a
vote of 305 to 269.
Goes to Committee Next.
The measure provides for dis
posal of the properties by auction
any time after next Easter. 1t
goes next to what is known as the
committee stage, where amend
ments may be offered, and then
on to a third and final reading.
The latter is usually just a for
mality.
Labor Party leaders already have
pledged to re-nationalize the in
dustry whenever they are sum-
moned to power again by the
British electorate. The Socialists
put the iron and steel plants
under public ownership in 1949.
Labor Party Leader Clement r.
Atlee served notice midway in the
18-hour and 36-minutes' overnight
sitting that he plans to offer a
motion of censure against Win
ston Churchill's Conservative
government with incompetence"
in failing to maintain quorum
of the House during session
which ran into the early hours
of Wednesday morning. The ses-
sion finally ended for lack of the
necessary 40 members on the
House floor.
Could TOpple Cabinet.
If passed, such a motion could
bring down Mr.. Churchill's gov
ernment. It's chances of passing
are regarded as negative. however,
since the Conservatives have a
tightly disciplined majority of 16
votes over all other parties.
The failure to maintain a quo
rum produced a Labor motion
which could have seriously delayed
progress of the steel bill. but
Speaker William S. Morrison ruled
against it.
After disposing of the iron and
steel bill the House went on to a
night-long debate on various de-
fense regulations which the gov
ernment wants extended.
Many tired members went to
sleep on their benches covered by
overcoats and blankets.

Wont the Korean people get

"Not a bit," Mr.. Ryee said.
"They like it. This is a big,
spontaneous thing and the fine
feeling of welcome Is growing all

ing themselves up to a great
climax"
War-weary Koreans, generally
shabby and destitute, have pre-
pared a remarkably convincing
greeting.
From the 38th Parallel to Pusan,
this country blossoms with signs
and banners.
1t gives one an odd feeling to
drive down narrow, wretched
alleys-places Eisenhower GER
tainly will never see-and find
signs with his picture festooning
dirty, crowded novels on both
sides, but that's the way it is.
This is an all-out welcome.
Every city is decorated" Mr..
Ryee assured.
Tired of Waiting for Peace.
He added soberly: "Our people
are sick and tired of waiting for
this war to end. They are sick
Of armistice negotiations that are
not getting anything settled.
Koreans want the division of
their country ended. They want
a united Korea. They want their
country saved and they think
Gen. Eisenhower will save it. And
they are eagerly awaiting the op-
portunity to tell him So"
Koreans intend to shower gifts
on Gen. Eisenhower.
A welcoming committee of Is
government officials and IS civil

Eisenhower with the Republic of
Korea flag, Korean costumes, gold
ornaments, the nations highest
medal and other gifts.
These will be presented by Pres
ident Syngman Rhee.
The committee also drew up
plans for meeting Gen. Eisen-

conflict with security safeguards.
According to these plans, Gen.
Eisenhower will be met by a Re-
