LOUISVILLE, Ky May 16. Fly. Ing Ebony, ridden by Earle Sande, of Salem, Ore., America'a premier jockey, this afternoon won the 51st Kentucky Derby, the nation's great turf classic, in a field of twenty en. tries. Captain Hal, who took tho lead from Flying Ebony at the end of the first quarter and maintain. ed it at the half and three quarters, posts, finished second. Son of John was third. Flying Ebony's time for the distance of one and a quarter miles was 2:07 2-5. This was Sande's second triumph In the derby. In 1923 he won tho event ftatnde Zev. Today Sande rode one of the greatest races of hi life when he brought Flying Ebony across tho wire a full length ahead of Captain Hal. The race was run in a driz. ale rain, threatening a downpour ev. ery second. Just before the start, a violent rainstorm broke, drench ing thousands of spectators, unpro tected by the cover on' the grand stand. The betting favored Quatrian, winner of two previous derbies elsewhere In the south,' whom Sande was originally slated to ride. A less experienced rider was :'t on Quatrain and this coupled with the wet track, was too great a handicao for the horse to overcome.' He made a comparatively poor showing. OOR!"

Debt settlement negotiations are In pro gress, not only with Frunce, but with Italy, Belgium,. Checho slovakia and Rumania. The American debt funding com mission has advised all five gov ernments that the United States would like to bring the debt ques tion to a solution promptly. In addition, Ambassador Her rick at Paris has Informed the French government that tho Wash ington government would be pleas ed if a French debt commission were sent to this" country. Some inkling of the conversa tions with France previously had been permitted to reach the public. but it was not disclosed until to day that Washington hadj taken the Initiative in seeking a general re funding arrangement with all her principal war debtors. lietails of the negotiations are still withheld but there are indica tions today that the American move virtually amounted to a cir cular notice to the debtors that this government belioves the time had come to strike a general balance. Disclaiming any intention to un duly press for payment where pay ment ia impossible, the communi cation nevertheless reflects the view of Washington that the acute stage of the reconstruction period Is passing, and that the debtor na tions should be in a position to put their promises to pay into definite agreements. The nations addressed made up the whole list of important war borrowers except for Russia, where there is no recognized government to which a notification could be addressed. For many months the adminis tration has been under ever-increasing pressure from leaders in congress and others who opposed any longer delay in resolving the obligations of the borrowing na tions into definite paper agree ments to pay. During this period France, In particular, has made a succession ,of diplomatic gestures Indicating I that she would enter Into dlscus Islons at some unnamed future date fundes unspecified conditions, but not one concrete proposal emerged .from all the discussion. The debt commission, despite the I repeated delays, has adhered, until i the present, to the policy of await 'fng proposals from abroad, taking !the view that the debtors should 'have plenty of time to turn them j selves around financially before they could properly dc presseu iui a settlement. In the opinion of Washington, the acute reconstruction period now is passing or has passed, how- lever, and with the operation or tne .Dawes plan it ia felt here that Eu I rope is In a position to commit I itself definitely to payment. During the period of waiting fruitful proposals came, from ex 'actly half of the 10 principal debt iors. Those who voluntarily enter ed into negotiations which result led In funding agreements were iGreat Britain, Hungary, Finland, Lithuania ahd Poland. Congress has charged the debt commission with responsibility for keeping the subject before those countries which have not settled, and the recent notification to the five remaining debtors, though sent through the state department, emanated from the debt commls- jslon. It Is understood that the communication to Mr. Herrlck. dls- ' patched last week, instructed him to say that the settlement with Great Britain was regarded here !s a desirable standard for other I nations.
