Sea0rbit Wins
Ing|ewood on
Stretch Drive.

NGLEWOOD, Calf, June IT
(AP).-Sea Orbit came up with
a great rush in the stretch to
beat out Dress Up and First
Balcony in a driving finish and
win the $54,850 Inglewood
Handicap at Hollywood Park
today.
After a rough start that saw
the betting favorite, New Pol
icy, badly bumped and taken
back, Sea Orbit, with Jockey
Angel Valenzuela aboard, went
on to win the $32,500 first
money by about a half length
over the long shot. Dress Up.
1t was the second stakes VIC
tory in a row for Sea Orbit.
racing in the silks of the Won
der Y Ranch of California.
FavOrites Having Tough Time
1t also marked the 33rd
straight race in which the
favorite had been beaten at
Hollywood Park.
Sea Orbit returned $40,
$3.50 and $500. Dress Up,
owned by Mrs. Connie Ring and
ridden by Bill Harmatz. paid
$11 and $500, and First Bal
cony. from the Greenville
Farms, paid $3.50.
First Balcony. who defeated
New Policy and Sea Orbit in
the $100,000-added Californian
last month, was the morning
line favorite. But the crowd,
estimated at $1,000, sent Ralph
loves New Policy, with Willie
Shoemaker aboard, to the post
as the favorite.
Sea Orbit won the Golden
State Breeders Handicap here
at a mile and one-siXteenth.
The time was 1:41.
Grey Eagle Early Pacesetter
Jockey Larry Gilligan took
the Kerr Stables Grey Eagle
out on the pace and held it un-
til Sea Orbit began his drive
in the stretch. Sea Orbit was
never far off the pace.
Shutdown II, bred by the
Queen of England, kept Eng
lish Royalty in the picture in
the immediate chase after
Grey Eagle.
But Grey Eagle finished
fourth and Sundown II further
back in the field of eight.
First Balcony carried 124
pounds, the most of his career,
while the winner packed 100.
New Policy, after a bad start,
was never able to get into the
fight and also finished out of
the money.

poise, top-weighted with 1875
pounds, collapsed in the final
eighth mile after chasing Hit
ting Away for the first mile
and faltered to sixth despite
9-10 odds.
Hitting Away, the Withers
winner, was made the second
choice by the crowd of 23,702
and paid $3.50, $3.50 and
$3.50. The son Of Ambiorix,
confidently ridden by veteran
Hedley Woodhouse, toured the
mile and an eighth in 1:15b
over the fast track. 1t was one
of the slowest times for the
event.
AS expected, Hitting Away,
who had been well up in the
early going of the Preakness
and Belmont, bounced out on
top. Carrying 119 pounds. the
colt ran freely with Ambio-
poise, the Jersey Derby winner,
chasing him.
At the far turn 1t appeared
that Ambiopoise was ready to
respond to Jockey Bob Ussery's
urging and take over the lead
from Hitting Away. But the
Phipps colt had something left
and widened his margin a bit
turning into the home stretch.
Gives Up Suddenly
At this point, Dodson had
Orleans Doge in high gear. but
it seemed that he was too far
back to be a threat. Ambiopoise
was a length and a half behind
Hitting Away at the eighth
pole and still very much in it.
However, within a few strides,
the odds-on choice suddenly de-
cided to chuck it.
With Woodhouse haud-rid-
ing Hitting Away in the final
sixteenth. Orleans Doge began
cutting down his rival with
every leap, but ran out of yard
age as he Surged by too late.
Hitting Away earned a win
ner'S share of $33,650 for
Phipps. He also gave him and
Trainer Sunny Jim Fitzsim-
mons their second straight
stakes victory here. The two
year-old Broadway, owned by
Phipps, won the Polly Drum
mond last Saturday.
Ussery could make no ex-
cuses for the disappointing
Ambiopoise, who two weeks ago
finished a distant fourth in
the Belmont Stakes.
I'VE were laying gooo all Cne
way but he just didn't finish, "
Ussery said after dismounting.
Dodson said that an eighth

he had a chance.

meeting but slightly under the
corresponding day last year
when the Leonard Richards

The only favorite to win was

started the $43 daily double (e
and one), completed by Inside

of a colorful career in his nations
service, the former Prime Minister
nevertheless has followed closely the
world events of the time.
Now 81, he has let it be known that
he is prepared to return to the political
scene, and Queen Elizabeth has con-
ferred upon him an earldom which will
enable him to take a seat in the House
of Lords. Repeatedly, it is his intention
to be an active participant in foreign
affairs debates in that chamber. While
Sir Anthony'S responsibility for the
Suez affair was clear and his judgment
was widely criticized, his overall career
in the making and administration of
British foreign policy has been distin-
guished one. There is no doubt that the
views he will bring to Parliament will
be of value in this important period of

Noble Experiment?

1t seemed to be a good idea, some
twenty-eight years ago, when Secretary
of Commerce Roper, early in the RooSe-
Velt administration, brought into being
the Business Advisory Council It was
composed of leading industrialists, buSi-
neSSmen and other prominent figures.
Paying their own expenses and serving
without compensation, their function
was to advise the President and the
Secretary of Commerce on matters
affecting Government and business.
Two years later David Lawrence,
writing in the The Star of July S, 1885,
predicted that the council had already
reached the end of its rope. A number
OF members had resigned, evidently
diSillusioned by Mr.. Roosevelt's attitude
toward business. If the council had
made any advisory reports to the PreSi-
dent, Mr.. Lawrence wrote, the President
never read them. If it offered advice,
the advice was ignored and if the council
had ever been useful it's usefulness had
come to an end.
Now, twenty-six years later, the
Business Advisory Council seems to be
facing another crisis. It's secret pro-
ceedingS have been under attack by the
liberals, including Representative Celler
OF New York, who suspect that the
advantages of communion with high
officialdom are shared by the advisers
as well as those who receive their advice.
The prestige enjoyed by those chosen to
be members of the council-regarded as
a highly exclusive club by those not
choSen-haS created antagoniSms that
feed, perhaps, on sour grapes. Last
December, when the council filled va
administration on who would fill them
And Secretary Hodges, probably re-
flecting the new administrations atti-
tude, laid down conditions which the
council is unwilling to accept. -
Chairman Roger M. Blough and a
committee of his council colleagues saw
the President on Thursday and outlined
a formula for the councils continued
existence which was politely received.
Under the formula the council would
no longer retain it's affiliation with the
Department of Commerce, but would
give its advice to all branches of Govern
ment, when sought We have the i'm
preston that its advice will go begging
and that the Business Advisory Council
will go down in the records as another
noble experiment. This is too bad, for
the administration could use some sound
advice on Government and business.

Britain and Kuwuit

A salute to the British for
their prompt action in Ku-
wait to discourage the Iraqi
from imposing their rule on
a small group of people who
desire self-determination.
This is the type of action
which is required to meet and
repel the Communists and
other totalitarian movements
which seek to conquer and
Subjugate peoples who are
unable to defend themselves.
The United States Govern
ment would do well to take a
lesson from this action. The
United States would do well
to formulate a policy which
provides for prompt and de-
ciSive action, when requested
by the nations in danger, or
when action by the United
Nations or other treaty or
ganiZation is too slow or
irresolute to be effective in
defending and preserving

Useful Druqs

In the controversy between Senator
Kefauver and the American Medical
Association on the Senator's bill to
regulate the drug industry, one dis
agreement bears significantly on the
relationship between doctors and their
patients.
Senator Kefauver Tin only one of
many provisions of his BILLY wants to
grant the Food and Drug Administration
the authority to determine whether new
drugs actually are beneficial in: the
uses claimed for them. At present, the
administration is empowered only to
evaluate the safety of new drugs. BY ex-
tending this authority Senator Kefauver
thinks non-useful drugs might be pre-
vented from ever reaching the market,
and that patients particularly would be
protected from those of doubtful eff
cacy which might be thrown on the
market in "blitz" of promotion and
advertisement. .....
Speaking for the ANA, however,
DR.. Hugh H. HuSSey, jr., dean OF the
Georgetown University School of Medi-.
cine, says this ignores the point that
drug may be beneficial in one instance
and not in another, and that it fire.
quently is impossible for any group of
experts to determine in advance that
a particular drug is going to be eff
cacious for a particular condition. AS
he put it:
drug which is, on the average, less
efficacious than another, must still be avail
able to every physician since it may be COM
pletely effcacious in treating the medical
problems of one of his patients. We do not
practice medicine on the average-We seek to
solve or alleviate the problems Of each and
every patient The point am making is
this: drugs efficacy varies from patient
to patient. Hence any judgment concerning
this factor can only be made by the individual
physician who is using the drug to treat an
individual patient.
1t seems to us there is considerable
merit to this view. Certainly there is
merit enough to raise a serious question
as to whether this provision of the bill
might not disrupt the doctor patient
relationship by barring the private
physician from access to new drug
which under certain circumstances
might be useful to one of his patients.

Housing for Diplomats

According to Angler Biddle Duke,
the State Department chief of protocol,
the difficulty which some African dip
lomats have experienced in finding
housing in Washington is not entirely
matter of racial discrimination, but
also of diplomat discrimination" Some
property owners, in other words, just
don't relish the idea of renting to dip
lomats in view of unhappy experiences
of the past. Among examples of the
difficulties which they cite are the
frequent moves of diplomatic personnel,
excessive entertaining which is objec-
tionable to other tenants and-as a
result of diplomatic immunity-the lack
of legal protection against broken leases
or property damage.
Assuming that these are valid COM
plants, however, the State Department
is justified in the special efforts it is
making to try to increase the availability
Of suitable housing. For certainly the
primary factor in the problem as it ap-
plies to African diplomats is racial, and
the rejection of housing applications on
this ground is bound to be harmful to
our position abroad.
AS expressed at the conference
called by the State Department, the re-
sponse of Washington apartment house
owners was highly gratifying. The pro-
vision of adequate housing for these
official visitors from foreign shores is
community responsibility which must
be met with a minimum of delay, and
which we expect now will be met.

Ever-Rising Taxes

statement of Commissioner
Tobriner! 1--WE are perfectly
willing to impose this addi-
tional burden (new taxes) =,
on District residents because
we feel it is not out of line
with the tax burden in
nearby Jurisdictions" That is
very magnanimous of Mr..
Tobriner. Are we of the Dis

ance with the required as
sessments of other commu-
mites? I guess as soon as
that tax is passed by the
"powers-that-be," the Com
missionerS will Immediately
vote themselves another
$4,000 increase since the
legislative bodies get higher
salaries, therefore, it would
not be out of line for the
Commissioners to be in the

Now, to protect that sup

ReYoIts Now and Then

Too many people are con-
fused or miSinformed as to
the facts pertaining to the
American Revolution. Ameri-
cans and foreigners, friend
and foe, liken all the upris-
ings. riots, tribal wars, etc.,
now going on in various parts
of the world, to our own
Birth of Freedom"
Now if the American In
dian could and should rise up
and demand the custer of
all nom indians, the owner
ship and control of all in
dustry and government, and
a seat on the Security Coun-
Gil of the U. NJ, you would
have a situation comparable
to the situation in other
parts of the world.
1t is little short of treason
to refer to these events in a
manner that puts George
Washington, Thomas Jeffer-
son, Benjamin Franklin, John
Hancock, and all their illus
trious and courageous asso-
ciates in the same category
as the Semi-civilized tribal
leaders now demanding priv
ileges that they are not ready
to pay for with the RESPONSE
bility these privileges entail.

an eighth grader because he

condition was.
Is this what our Founding
Fathers wanted us to do with
our freedom?
Have we let lust for power

of freedom and present to
the less advanced nations a
sad caricature, corrupt,
greedy and based on the

Knotty Economic Problem

The most recent Government sta
tisticS on employment and unemploy-
ment show very clearly why this aspect
of the national economic health war
rants most thoughtful and serious
concern.
They reveal, for example, that more
people (68.7 million) had jobs in mid
June than at any other time in the
Nations history. At the same time, they
show that unemployment was very close
to Sc million, or about 6.8 per cent of
the civilian work force. While the gross
figures in both categories were swollen
by approximately 2.5 million teen-agerS
who entered the job market-Some tenn
porarily and some permanently-durin
the summertime school and college re-
cess, the 6.8 per cent rate of unemploy-
ment is the statistic of greatest signif-
icance. For with only the slightest up
and down movement, this percentage
of joblesSness has prevailed for the past
seven monthS-or almost over the exact
period of the recovery movement that
became noticeable by other measure
mentS around the beginning of the year.
That a decrease in unemployment
should lag behind other recovery indiceS
is not, of course, peculiar to this par
ticular business cycle. 1t did the same,
for instance, after the 1854 and 1858
receSSionS. What is disturbing, however,
is point emphasized in recent study
by the National Planning Association,
namely, that the pattern of modern
receSSion-recovery phases indicates that
with each cycle there is left slightly
higher plateau of chronic unemploy-
ment. After 1854, for example, this
level Of jobleSSneSs held pretty steadily
around per cent, after 1858 at about
per cent, and it may remain in this
case at 6 per cent or higher.
No doubt there are. many factors
involved in this pattern. Government,
management and labor in varying de-
greeS have devoted thought to how
some of these might be offset. Perhaps
the factor which tends to loom largest
in all minds is the impact of automation
and other chronological innovations in
production. While it is argued per-
SuaSively, and we think convincingly,
that such chronological developments
are essential to the future of our in
dustrial economy, and in the long run
may indeed create more jobs than they
eliminate, there is ample evidence that
in the intermediate term they contribute
to job losses. The Labor Department
OnlV recentlV set I'm an Office Of ATtO-
nation and Manpower to seek an answer
to this problem, and Congress is con-
sidering legislation to initiate program
for re-training and relocating workers
who have been so displaced. More than
planning is necessary, however. Jobs
must be found, not only for older workers
displaced by automation, but for the
continuing flow of youngsters who are
moving into the job market. .

Mans Beliefs

In commenting upon David
Lawrenoe's column on reli-
gion in the State, Frances
Townsend Trammell wrote,
1.-THE question occurs to me
as to how long it will be be-
fore we have a candidate for
the White House beating his
breast and shrieking to
Heaven that, There is no
God!'" Miss Trammell then
tells us that if an atheist
were elected to the pres
idency the collapse of the Re-
public would inevitably fol-
low.
This I consider an mex
cuSable insult to atheism,
for it implies that the atheist
is not only an irresponsible
and dangerous person, but a
proSelytizer as well. This is
not true in most cases. An
atheist is usually an intel
ligent, thinking man, more
interested in formulating his
philosophy of life than con-
templating the mysteries of
God. Quite often his phil
osophy will be humanistic
and embody ethics normally
associated with a Hebraic-
Christian ethic. And because
the atheist spends more time
thinking of man than he
does of God, his philosophy
may be both profound and
beneficial to humanity.
Miss Trammell assumes the
attitude of a great many peo-
pie when she says thai an
atheist in office can mean
nothing but trouble. These
people don't seem to realize
that one man can have just
as high regard for life. jus
tice and tradition as an
other. even though he may
not hold the others beliefs.
I say if one holds these
things to be of value, then
any man who would deny
him the chance to compete
for office is himself an ir-
responsible citizen and a
menace to our Republic.
