At Allis Chalmers Plant
(Xarlier Strike Story on Page A-9.)
The National Defense Mediation
Board announced this afternoon
that an agreement for settlement of
a threatened strike of 1,252 C. I. O.
electrical and machine workers at
the Pittsburgh plant of the Allis
Chalmers Co. had been reached.
The agreement, while subject to
union ratification, is considered vir
tually a final termination of a dis
pute mainly involving wages.
Tha Pittsburgh plant manufactures
turbines and generators, many of
Which are vital to operation of ships.
The dispute was the second the
board has terminated involving the
ATlis-Chalmers Co., the first having
been the six-week strike of 7.500
C. I. O. workers at the company's
Minneapolis plant.
The panel conducting hearings on
the Pittsburgh controversy was
headed by C. A. Dykstra, board
chairman, representing the public;
Cy Ching, representing manage
ment, and Clinton Golden, repre
senting labor.
Action Sought by Reynolds
On Philippine Export Ban
A resolution under which this
Government could prevent shipment
of essential supplies from the Philip
pines to Japan or Russia was intro
duced in the Senate today by Sen
ator Reynolds, Democrat, of North
Carolina, at the request of the War
Department.
The North Carolinian, as acting
chairman, said the Military Affairs
Committee will hold hearings on the
measure Tuesday.
While the resolution does not
refer to any specific countries, Sen
ator Reynolds indicated he had in
mind giving Government authorities
the power, whenever they feel it
necessary, to curtail exports to Japan
and Russia from the Philippines.
Congress gave the President gen
eral authority in one of the defense
acts of last July to curb exports from
the United States of any articles or
supplies needed for defense purposes,
but Senator Reynolds said it needs
amendment to make sure of its ap
plication to the Philippines, the Vir
gin Islands and the Panama Canal
Zone.

Demands that the Senate act to
prevent claims to ownership of a j
Senate seat by any individual came .
from Republican Senators in op
position to seating of Joseph Rosier. ;
a Democrat, as Senator from West ’
Virginia.
••No man ought to be permitted
to own any office.” asserted Sena
tor Austin, Republican, of Vermont,
referring to the resignation of M.
M. Neely to become Governor of
West Virginia and Mr. Neely's sub
sequent selection of Rosier as his
successor.
A similar assertion came from
Senator Wiley. Republican, of Wis
consin, who said the Senate's se
lection between Mr. Rosier and
Clarence Martin, nominee of for- j
mer Gov. Homer A. Holt, would set j
a precedent.
••This is a question.** Senator !
Wiley continued, ‘‘of whether we ;
are going to say a Senator can re- !
sign to himself and appoint his
successor.”
Both questioned ‘‘public policy’’ of
upholding Mr. Neely's appointment.
"It would be a very unhappy de
cision,” declared Senator Wiley, ‘‘if
we should decide a Senator could
resign his office, become Governor
and thus control appointment of
a Senator of the United States.”

BALTIMORE. May 9.—Eight rac
ing bluebloods were named today for
the 51st running of the rich Preak
ness Stakes tomorrow, with Warren
Wright’s great stretch - driving
Whirlaway. who spread-eagled the
field to win the Kentucky Derby,
topping the list.
Rain, which had fallen intermit- i
tently for hours on Pimlico's historic
race strip, threatened to make to
morrow a good day for mud-runners
and give Whirlaway a real test.
Three of the entrants who trailed
Mr. Wright's colt to the wire in the
Derby—Royce Martin's Our Boots,
King Ranch's Dispose and Charles
S. Howard's Porter's Cap —were
named.
Meets Four New Opponents.

did not face Whirly. the current 3- ,
year-old leader, in the Derby. They I
are Ogden Phipps' speedy King
Cole, E. D. Shaffer's Curious Coin, :
Crispin Oglebay's Ocean Blue and
the unexpected entry, Kansas, from
the Millsdale Stable of Tony Pel
leteri and Mel Emerich.
The draw for the post positions
gave the No. 1 lane to Whirlaway I
and immediately brought conjecture
as to the effect this spot might have
on his chances. Away to a fast j
break. Whirlaway might make every
post a winning one. but if some of
the early speed entries get away
first, race observers said Whirlaway
might experience difficulty in get
ting his nose in ffont late where
the straightaway at Pimlico is not
so long as that he liked at Churchill
Downs.
Ocean Blue drew the No. 2 lane,
Porter's-Cap. No. 3: Curious Coin. 4;
King Cole. 5: Kansas. 6; Dispose, 7,1
and Our Boots got the outside.
Winner’s Share $49,500.
Tf all eight go to the post, the
gross value of the race will be $69,500,
with the winner's share, $49,500: the
second horse, $10,000. and the third
and fourth horses, $5,000 and $2,000,
respectively.

Our Boots would start, as Trainer
Steve Judge said ‘'his condition is
only fair,” despite the fact that the
colt worked a mile Wednesday only
3.-, of a second over the track record.
Mr. Judge said he wouldn’t know'
until tomorrow.
Trainer Ben Jones took Whirlaway
on the track for a final half mile

under 51 seconds.
Dispose, who set the blistering
pace in the Derby last week, worked
3 furlongs handily this morning in
:363s. Ocean Blue breezed for half
a mile in :51 ’4 and Kansas worked
the same distance in :513s.

Navies and Industry
Will Decide the War,
Lord Halifax Asserts
Briton, in Middle West,
Calls Oil, Copper, Rubber
Liberty's Trump Cards
(Earlier Story on Page A-3.)
By the Aesociated Press.
MINNEAPOLIS, May 9—Sea
power and industrial power are the
two big fundamental factors that
will decide the present war, Lord
Halifax. British Ambassador to the
United States, said at a press con
ference on his arrival here today for
two speeches. He was accompanied
by Lady Halifax.
Lord Halifax, at the same time,
was quick to predict- that Great
Britain, with aid from America, will
win the war and "wipe Hitlerism
from the earth.”
Asked to comment on the views of
Charles A. Lindbergh, who is sched
uled to speak here Saturday night,
the former British Foreign Minister
said:
"I have no doubt that he holds
his opinions as sincerely as my own,
but where he touches on the field of
world affairs and matters that af
fect the future of all free peoples,
I think some of his arguments are
dangerously mistaken.”
Wants to Get Point of View.
The British peer said he came to
the Middle West ‘‘to see for myself
the point of view of the people here.”
In one of his speeches today, the
one before the Minneapolis Rotarv
Club, the Ambassador named oil,
copper and crude rubber as “the
trump cards in the hands of
freedom.”
Fortunately, he said, “there are
signs that the time is approaching
when every unit of totalitarian pro
duction will be met by two units of
free production, and here I mean
not only industrial output, but raw
materials and foodstuffs as well.
"And the day must soon come
when the Nazis will no longer be
able to find fresh loot as they have
found it in France, Holland, Den
mark and other ravaged countries,
and will be forced to draw still
deeped on their reserves.
“Gradually the deluded people 01 j
Germany will discover that the es- j
sential reserves of supply for which !
they have slaved and starved and
forgone their liberty are exhausted
and that they are left to face the
crushing strength of the forces of
freedom, armed, fed, supplied and
inspired by the limitless resources of
America's gigantic wealth and help.
A Specialized War.
"When the history of that day is
written," the Ambassador continued,
“it will be clear that the genius
of industrial co-ordination will have
played an equal part with the genius
of military strategy.”
The Ambassador emphasized that
in a war so specialized, in which
machinery is playing a decisive role,
the raw materials which make and
drive that machinery are playing an
even more important part.
“I take three of the most essen
tial,” Lord Halifax said. “Oil is the
vital source of power for the modern
army, and together the United
States and the British Common
wealth of nations dispose of some
70 per cent of the world supply.
Eighty-five per cent of the world's
copper is still beyond Hitler's reach
and no less than 91 per cent of the
crude rubber.
"These are the trump eard* in the
hands of freedom.”
Post-War Building
Drive Urged at Cost
Of $3,000,000,000
La Guardia Says Plan
Is Under Study by
Mayors' Conference
E* the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. May 9 —Mayor F. H.
La Guardia disclosed today that the
United States Conference of Mayors
which he heads h3d under con
sideration a $3,000,000,000 plan for
building public works after the war.
He told the convention of the
New York State Society of Profes
sional Engineers that the end of
the war would bring about “a uni
versal dislocation of industry and
employment" and that preparations
already were under way to offset it
through a mammoth building pro
gram. A proposal has been made
to President Roosevelt to allot $3.
500,000 for an inventory of public
improvements, he said.
The Mayor said that in the event
of changes in the present situation
the next step in the war would
be for “enemy forces” to seize
strategic bases which would make
Atlantic seaboard cities subject to
attack.
“If we do get into a state of war.”
he continued, "then it is highly
probable that some of our coast
cities would be subject to surprise
and short attacks which would have
great military value, because they
would arouse the apprehensions of
civilians who would demand addi
tional protection. This would de
tract from the production of neces
sary defense and offensive weapons.
“If they reached Philadelphia
they could reach Pittsburgh. If they
reached the Hudson River they
would try to reach Schenectady.
“Unless the war can be terminated
bv the complete crushing of the
Nazi philosophy of government then
we are in for it—not only ourselves
but the whole world.”
He predicted that in the event
of an Axis victory the United States
would not be able to return to nor
mal pursuits for any length of time
during the next hundred years.
“If such should happen you will
be engaged in the rebuilding of cities
throughout the world to meet con
ditions that will exist for at least
a century,” he said.
$1-a-Bale Jump in Cotton
Leads Commodities Rise
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 9—Paced by
advances of around $1 a bale in cot
ton and nearly 2 cents a bushel for
wheat, virtually every major com
modity traded in the Nation's fu
tures markets experienced strong
price rises today.
For cotton, it was the ninth con
secutive upward thrust. Almost as
steady boosts have been given the
other products.
Market analysts attributed the
successive gains td prospects of ris
ing sales based on the defense pro
gram, combined with a probable
shortage of ships for imports of cer
tain items. Farm products were
strengthened by the likelihood of in
creased Federal loans.
Today’s rises came in the face of
a Department of Agriculture warn
ing against “excessive speculation”—
a caution which caused the New
York Produce Exchange to restrict
margin trading in some products.
Included in the session's list of
gainers were rubber, sugar, hides,
cocoa, corn, wool tops, cottonseed oil,
coffee, silk and soybeans.

British Ships to Concentrate
On Blocking Axis Supplies
LONDON. May 9 fJP,.—With the
battle of Greece ended, the British
Mediterranean fleet is likely to con
centrate on “interruption" of the
flow of supplies and reinforcements
to Axis armies in Libya, informed
sources in London said tonight.
The fleet action and the attempt
to bolster the Axis forces in North
Africa obviously will be vital factors
in the coming battle of Egypt, they
said.
(That the fleet already has
started on this was indicated by
an Italian communique today
telling of a combined air and
naval bombardment of Bengasi,
which shares importance with
Tripoli as a big port of entry
into Libya.)
The Royal Navy already has sunk
a big Axis convoy and scored other
I successes against German and Ital
i ian units in the Mediterranean, the
British said, but the cutting of Axis
j supply lines to North Africa is not
entirely a naval problem.
Big forces of German and Italian
dive-bombers, fighters and recon
naissance planes, massed in Sicily,
are compelling British warships to
| take strong escorts of shore-based
1 as well as sea-borne fighters when
| ever they put to sea.
Moreover. R. A. F. planes making
j vital daylight scouting trips need
I fighter protection.
