Truman Raps, Siirns DP Bill WASHINGTON. June 25 - -?irtenl Truman today reluctant ly signed and then bitterly criti cized a bill to let 205,000 European war refugees enter the United States in the next two years. The additions to America's melt ing pot will be carefully screened mt-n. women and children who fled to the now-occupied zones of Germany or Austria and to Italy between Sept. 1, 1939 and Dec. 22, 1945, and who stayed until Janu ary 1. Many will be persons whose na tive lands are now behind Russia's iron c urtain. The president said most of the Jews who entered any of these countries by 1945 already have left, and most of the Jews now there arrived after 1945 and "hence are denied a chance to come to the United States." U. N. Board Leaves Jews Free to Push Convoy Through TEL AVIV, Israel, June 25 -4JP) Jewish authorities were advised y the U. N. truce commission here today they were "free to act as they saw fit" to push a convoy to the Negeb desert in southern Palestine, arj Israeli announce ment said.

Coast-to-Coast Combination First for GOP j By D. Harold Oliver ' WASHINGTON, June 25 -(P)-i The republican party has picked I in Thomas E. Dewey of New York I and Earl Warren of California its 1 first east - west, coast - to - coast presidential ticket since iU first i national convention in 1856. It established a precedent by l giving Dewey a second nomination I after having lost his presidential i bid in 1944. In naming two governors to top I its ticket, the party has taken an other rare step, although in 1944 it- also had an all - governor slate in Dewey and John W. Bricker, then governor of Ohio. Bricker is a senator now. But along with these "firsts" and "near firsts," the GOP adhered to the time - honored custom of se lecting standard bearers who hail from states with big electoral votes. Vote-Pulling Power If Dewey and Warren can show next November the vote - pulling power they demonstrated in their gubernatorial reelection cam paigns in 1946, they will have-cor-raled more than one-fourth of the clectorial votes required for vic tory. Now York has 47 and California 25 electoral votes for a total of 72. A to:;d of 26C is needed to win. Dewey had a plurality of close to 688.000 in beating Senator James M. Mead in New York in 1946 for another term in Albany. Warren confounded the politi cians by taking both major party nominations in California and coasting to a second ."overnorship term at Sacramento. States Not Unified And, the republicans have not lost sight of the fact that the dem ocrats are not any too well uni fied in New York and California this year. Win or lose, Dewey and War ren will stay in public office next year. Their present gubernator ial terms do not expire until 1951. In the 24 conventions of the party there have been 16 east midwest tickets linking states like New York and Indiana four times, Ohio and New York six times, Illinois and M3ine, Ohio and Mas sachusetts, and so on. Of these 16 east-midwest tick ets, 11 won in November. Pope Asked to Rule on Beauty Contest Status MOUNDS VILLE, W.Va., June 25 (I-Sponsors of the annual Viet Virginia beauty pageant to day asked Pope Pius VII to ex press his position on Bishop John J. Swint's ruling that any Catho lic girl entering the contest faces excommunication. The appeal was made in a ca blegram addressed to the Vatican by William J. D. Miller, public re lations man for the pageant. Two Catholic girls withdrew af ter the Bishop of Wheeling de nounced such contests as "totally pagan" and "absolutely immoral" and said "if nakedness were elim inated the whole thing would fall to pieces." Miller's cable explained that tal ent is stressed and indecent expos ure prohibited in the contest and said Bishop Swint's ruling "threat ens success of a civic enterprise (whose proceeds) go to worthy charities." In conclusion: "Appreciation expression your position this worthy cause."

Wives of GOP Nominees Stay Out of Politics By Cynthia Lowry PHILADELPHIA, June 25-iJPy-Mrs. Thomas Dewey sighed and thought, "Oh, dear," when her husband won the republican nom ination for president. Mrs. Earl Warren, seated with her children in the convention hall balcony, heard her husband nom inated for vice president with tear-filled eyes and a genuine feeling of surprise. "I'd heard his name mentioned, of course," the light-haired Sweden-born wife of the California governor said, "but I hadn't heard anything definite. I didn't believe it until one of the California dele gation caught my eye and shook hands with himself." Thought of Responsibility Mrs. Dewey said that her first reaction was a worried expres sion. She though of the big re sponsibility it put on her husband. The two women, first ladies of states on opposite ends of the na tion, are very much alike in many ways and have been friends for some time. Neither takes part publicly in politics. Both are devoted mothers: the Deweys have two children; the Warrens, six. They both renovat ed their respective governors' mansions, and enjoyed doing it. Both dress well. Mrs. Warren said she had not expected things to happen the way they did. None in "Sunday Best" "Nina (the youngest daughter) had on a cotton dress none of us was in our bunday best, &ne said. Nevertheless she looked fa shionable and handsome in a sheer navy blue dress with a white hat trimmed with maline. After accepting congratulations from the crowd, Mrs.' Warren, with daughters Virginia, 19; Dor othy, 17, and Nine called "Hon eybear" who is 14, had lunch eon with a friend and then plan ned to attend a small reception given by the California delegation. TWO RADIOS TAKEN D. Holtzman, 1485 N. Summer st., reported to Salem police Fri day night that someone entered his house through a basement window Thursday night and taken two radios from an upstairs room. Nothing else was touched, the re port said. Family at the Convention GOP Meet Sends Note of Gratitude To MacArthur CONVENTION HALL, Philadel phia. June 25-,P-A resolution of "gratitude and appreciation" for the "heroic role" Gen. Douglas MacArthur has played in war and peace was one of the last bits of business at the republican con vention. It went through unanimously. Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin offered it. He said he didn't want Japan to get the wrong idea because MacArthur got so few votes for the presidential nom ination. MacArthur got 11 votes, 8 of them from Wisconsin, on the first ballot yesterday. He got 7, all but 1 of them from Wisconsin, on the second. Swimmer Sets U. S. Record SAN DIEGO, Calif., June 2S-(JP) Suzanne Zimmerman of Portland, breaking her own American rec ord in the 200-meter backstroke, and favored Ann Curtis of San Francisco headed the array of winners as initial competition came to a close tonight in the women's national swimming and diving championships.
