But he and Republican cam paign planners evidently must decide first whether anv such proposals can be made appealing to organized labor without alien atini other citizens who want the act kept pretty much as it is. Dewey's Taft-Hartley com ments have been few recently. But he said in Salt Lake City in May that he never had seen a "perfect law. "I hope that my patty will be more ready to make corrections than the Democratic party has been." he added. Later the Republican platform pledged "continuing study to im prove labor-management legisla tion in the light of experience and changing conditions. Thus Dewey goes into the active phase of the campaign next month with the way open for him to propose possible changes in the law without being tied down In advance to any specific revisions.

Now Hot Question TAC?OMA, Aug. 20 P Did or did not Paul Bunyan wear whiskers? . This la a question now perplex ing members of the 40 and 8. the fun making organization of the American Legion. This outfit is making prepara tions to entertain the State De partment Legion Convention here next week, and they plan a giant Paul Bunyan and his blue ox "Babe" In the Thursday parade. When it came to assembling the giant the question of whisk ers arose- and every available source of Information was sought to find out did he or did he not have them. Libraries were searched, lumbermen were quer ied and a telegram was sent Be midji, Minn., where a huge sta tue of the fabled lumberman stands, but no one seemed to know for a fact. Of course, it is known that Paul Bunyan shaved at times with one of his huge axes, but did he wear a beard or how about a moustache? 40 and 8 members hope to show the world whiskers or no whiskers when the giant appears on the streets that is, if they themselves find out In time.
