Newspaper Page TextTWO Dewey Mum On Question of Aid To West Ya. Solon ALBANY, N. Y., Oct. 20-i.Vt Gov. Thomas E. Dewey travels to New York todav lor a speech there tonight n'fl keeping his own counsel about helping out in an important senatorial race. The senatorial race is in West Virginia. There the Republican incumbant, Senator Chapman He vercomb. Is in what the GOP leadership regards as a close con test with his Democratic oppo nent, iormer Senator Matthew Neeley. Dewey, throughout this cam paign, has been concentrating on states where the Senate races are nip and tuck in an effort to maintain GOP control of the Senate. The Republicans now have only a six-vote margin 51 seats to the Democrats' 45. But with less than two weeks remaining before the Nov. 2 elec- tion, Dewey still has given no Indication whether he plans to lend Revcrcomb a hand. Some of Dewey's aides say the act Revercomb refused to coop erate with the GOP Presidential candidate during the August spe cial session of Congress has had no bearing on Dewey's considera tion of whether to go into West Virginia. They say it's a matter of schedule making and nothing else. During the special session Dew ey asked Revercomb, chairman of a key Senate subcommittee, to go along on revision of a law providing for admission of Euro pean reiugees 10 mis cuumiy. The law has bten criticized as discriminatory against Jews and Catholics. Revercomb refused, saying It was a matter that should riot be handled In haste at a special session. Dewey has been reported to be liked at Revcrcomb ior that reason.

Commies Heavy Losers in French National Election PARIS, Oct. 19 (.ll The new Council of the Republic, Krance'a Upper House, is going to take a aharp swing to the right. Figures complied today from Sunday's election indicated that ieflists and near leftists will have about 130 members of the .120 in the assembly, compared with ilia in the old one still in existence. Pightist parties and rightist in dependents will have the balance of about 190, compared with ap proximately fa last time. In the current assembly are a few who defy classification. These figures are based on what the electors who were cho sen Sunday may be expected to do when, on Nov. 7, they set about choosing the members; of the council of the Republic. Greatest losers will be the Communists and the Catholic Popular Republicans. But It should he pointed out that this does not represent exact ly the atrength of the various parties In Fiance. Tn the selec tion of members of the Council of the Republic, the voting is weighted In favor of the country districts, where Conservatives are stronger, and against the big cities, where Communists and leftists generally are stronger. In turn the greatest gainers in the election will be Da Caullists and the so-called Radical So cialists, who are nut Socialists but are, in fact. Conservatives. 1 kaW 14 1J UiULJUUl UNDERGOES SECOND OPERATION Pamela Lampher. lies in her county hospital crib in Chicaqa after undergoing a second operation to correct a rare bladder malformation.
