Sport Shorts From Britain

By ALLAN NICKLESON Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, June 7—A conference in London between the various national lalwn tennis associations to discuss the position of the In- ternational Lawn Tennis Federat- ion as the regulating force oi the game throughout the world is be- ing planned for sometime in the

near future.

Meanwhile, the British Lawn Tennis Association is working to- wards resumption oi champion- ships at Wimbledon at the earliest possible date, and also is working on arrangements to hold the hard court championships and other national tournaments including junior titles.

-Tennis was one of the hardest- hit sports during the war, mainlv because service requirements made for a, great shortage of tennis rac- kets, balls and other equipment. Consequently the organized game

rtuzilly died except for some ex- hibitions arranged among leading players for Red Cross benefits.

The game was especially hard hit among the 511131161‘ centres and the L.T.A., in efforts to put it back on its ieet will co-operate with county associations. Meanwhile, experiments with synthetic rubber have been encouraged and manu- facture of balls from this material will start as soon as labor is avail- able.

Capt. T. L. Lockton, internation- al hurdler, will return to the run- nlng track this summer, fresh from ‘Z0 operations on an arm wound. ‘The injury, however, won't allow him to compete in hurdle races so ‘Lockton is training as o, quarter- imile straight runner.

Lockton suffered a. bullet wound iin the arm three ears ago while on Northwest front er work in In- dia. Last July, he went to France but the arm continued to give trouble and he was returned to England for more operations.

‘Hi5 last serious race was when he ran a dead-heat with the Ger- man. Karl Pollimans, in a British- German match Cologne, just before the war; began.

It will take a long time for sport in Britain to get but one of the first signs oi the removal of rationed racing came at York where the governmentde- requisitioned Yorik Racecourse. one of the best in Northern England in peacetime.

held in August although stands 155

Great War Debts

Would Likctfqo See Early’ Settlement Of Lend- Lease Obligations.

mow voax, June 1 - (AP) —V Governor Thomas I. ,Dewey 0!; New York called tonight for can- cellation of World War I debts and early settlementogi leéitd-letlllllig war

He also ulaed. in a speech we- pared for a war finance commL- tee dinner, that the United States take the lead in reducing tariffs and accept the Bretton Woods proposals, despite ‘imperfections, ,as a step toward solving postwar {economic problems.

“The 25-year-old foreign gov- ernment debts to the United States arising from World War I will never be paid because they can- not be paid,” Mr. Dewey said. We should be honest and intellkel" enough to say so officially and cancel them.

“Along with this should go an immediate repeal of the Johnson Act, which forbids private loans to governments and nations now in default oi these debts."

Urging that efforts begin “at once" to settle lend-lease obliga- tions, the 19M. Republican presi- dential candidate said "it may well be that we shall have to cancel a major part of the financial ob- ligations," adding:

"We are entitled to ask in re- turn that our partners shall fully live up to the other part of their obligations by eliminating barriers to commerce and promoting the betterment oi world-wide economic and social relations, as well as the

l.

cause of freedom of the individual. for which this war is being fought." Mr. Dewey said the Uni Stator not only should lower its tariffs but also should "initiate a world conference for general tariff reductions" and should seek. with. Great Britain, “the long-term stabilization oi the all-important. dollar-sterling rate."

Mr. Dewey said "the ablest brains of our country were ex- cluded" irom preparing the Bret- ton Woods plan and that "in many respects it was a clumsy job," bu: he said the plan should be adapt- ed as "a method and an organ- ization through which men can

work toward solutions."
