Quick Decision
On Aid to China

BV ASSOCIATED I’ltESS
A top American government of-
ficial contended today $5,000,000,000
must be poured from the U. S.
treasury into China if there is any
chance to stop the advancing Com-
munists.
President Truman, who reviewed
foreign relations with Secretary of
Stale George C. Marshall, was de-
scribed as eager to reach a decision
quickly on China. He must reply
to an urgent appeal last week from
Chiang Kai-shek asking in effect
that the United Stales furnish a
great deal more aid and about hike
over direction of the war against
the Reds. Some government of-
ficials are known to feel it is too
late. During the war and since, the
United Slates has sent $3,600,000,000
to China, with little to show for it. |
Threats Increase
The Communists regrouped after
a battering last week and opened
a new drive on Suchow, key to
Nanking 10 miles aw'ay and to cen-
tral China. Weather held back na-
tionalist planes which blunted the
Communist attack last week.

North China to Peiping and Tient-
sin by taking over Paoting.
President Syngman Rhee of South
Korea asked new assurance that
American occupation troops will
not leave South Korea "while the

Bookkeeping, Taxes
Roy Staton, of the Richcrson and

was speaker at the Rotary club
luncheon Monday when he ad-
dressed the group on the subject of
“Bookkeeping and Taxes."
Staton, whose talk was one of a
series by members of the club on
some phase of their profession or
business, called attention to the
growth of the tax and accounting
business within recent years as a
result of the Increasing need for
close-kept records in business.
His company deals with the small
business and professional rtiflir, and
supplies such service as installa-
tion of bookkeeping systems,
monthly checking and auditing ser-
vice. monthly, quarterly and yearly
reports, audits, credit applications,
and other reports as requested.

organizations as his own.

King George VI
Ls Reported III
LONDON. Nov. 23 —HP)— King
George VI is suffering from an ar-
terial ailment, Buckingham palace
official correspondents reported to-
day. All his public engagements
have been cancelled.
The announcement, apparently
authorized by the king himself,
said the ailment did not involve a
blood clot.
The king’s physicians said in a
medical bulletin early today the
king suffered from “an obstruction
in the circulation of the legs which
lias only recently become acute"
and that a defective blood supply
to the right foot caused anxiety.
Newspapers and court circles
generally interpreted the bulletin to
mean that a blood clot had formed
in the king's right leg.
Whether the palace corres-
fiondeuts' dispatch meant the king
ts suffering from phlebitis was not
dear. Phlebitis ls an lnflaniatlon
of tlie Inner membrane of the veins.
The announcement, which came
as a complete surprise and shock
to the British empire and common-
wealth, said ills doctors liad ordered
complete rest for the king. Palace
sources said George would fill no
public engagements for at least six
months.

Bids Rejected
On Lippizzaners
At Fort Reno
Seven Prized Horses
Are Being Retained
By Remount Station
Seven highly trained Llppizzaner
horses, once tlie pride of Hungar-
ian royalty, are too valuable to
sell for $7,500, Colonel N. M.
L Abbe, commandant at the de-
partment of agriculture’s remount
station at Fort Reno, decided to-
day.
Seven sealed bids for the seven
prized animals, two coaches, sev-
eral sets of royal harness complete
with ornaments, and a coachman’s
livery, were opened today noon In
L'Abbe's office.
Immediately after reading the
bids, L'Abbe announced all were
rejected because the offers were
too low.
"In view of the great amount of
Interest displayed in the animals
by people in the far eastern and
far western parts of the United
States. ’ L'Abbe said, "we are re-
jecting all the bids."
"Distance and the shortness of
time precluded many persons from
entering bids in time.”
"We will retain the animals until
they can be properly offered to the
public, and give other persovs an
opportunity to enter tlielr bids."
“Reasonable” Bids Want 'd
"Had any of the bids been reason-
able," the colonel continued, "the
animals would have been sold to-
day."
Later, L'Abbe said he h .d re-
ceived many telephone call from
Interested persons who requested
he accept a telegraphic bid. Such
bids, lie said, were not acceptable.
A total of 104 pedigreed horses
of European ancestry were sold at
public auction at the fort Monday.
Prices on most were far below
expectations and the total amount
received was $17,600, or an average
of $173.07.
Top price for any of the ani-
mals sold Monday was $475 paid
for a Lipplzzaner filly foaled by
one of the royal mares Feb. 17,
1946, after she was brought to this
country. The animal was purchased
by R. E. Rapp, Oklahoma Oily.
Tlie other Lipplzzaner filly foaled
after Its dam reached America
went to M. C. Corthington, Fred-
erick, for $225.
“Whiplash" Brings $425
The only animal of the entire lot
which was registered with the
American Jockey club was Whip-
lash, by Reno Inhale out of Reno
1 Indicted. The bay gelding went to
Ken Schiftler, Sheridan. Wyo., for
$425. Whiplash was foaled at Fort
Reno.
A number of EH Reno and other
Canadian county residents were at
file auction Monday and several
bought mounts for riding purposes.
Dr. Bela Mariassy, a former di-
rector of the Hungarian stud sta-
bles after the war, attended the
auction and purchased nine horses
for the Bitter Root stock farm In
Montana.
Dr. Mariassy, who represented
the Montana ranch owner, said he
purchased the best of the brood
mares and smiled as he said they
were not necessarily the finest In
appearance.
Mariassy has handled nearly all
of the horses offered at the auction,
including the seven royal Lippizz-
aners.
Colonel L'Abbe withheld the
names ol persons presenting sealed
bids on the Lippizzaners. He stated,
