DEWEY IS NEW YORK'S
MAIN POLITICAL ENIGMA
DEMOS FEAR HE WILL BB
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE

PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER
WASHINGTON, July 23. The great
political enigma of New York, la
young Tom Dewey, the mass pro
duction St. Oeorge who haa been
mowing down the dragons of the
racket at the rate of about one a
week. He has been elected district
attorney of New York county for
a four-year term. He haa stated that
he la not a candidate for any office
Yet the grwit puzzle for the local
political soothsayers Is whether or
not Tom Dewey will accept the Re
publican nomination for governor.
The president and his advisers.
Postmaster-General James A. Parley,
and most other leading Democrats
have been conclnved for months that
Dewey would run. Many eminent
Republicans (most of whom would
not be averse to making the guber
natorial race themselves) are equally
positive that Dewey can't run. "He's
been elected to do a big Job, and
he's got to do It,'.'., they tell you, .
As for Dewey himself, he seems
to be handling his political future
to the same cold, efficiently calcu
lating way that he handles rackets
prosecutions. It Is learned authori
tatively that. In the last weeks, he
has told close friends that he wtll
run If he has better than an even
chance. In practical terms, that
means he will run If the Democratic
candidate la anyone but Senator Rob
ert P. Wagner of Oovernor Herbert
H, Lehman, and If his prosecution
of James J. Hlnes proves successful.
It Is a strange conjunction of
events. Indeed, which may make the
Republican presidential nomination
In 1940 depend on the conviction of
the New Deal's official patronage dis
penser In the largest city In the
country as the political protector f
the Dutch Schultr. policy racket. Yet
that Is about the size of the situ
ation. For years, New Yorkers, from
church leaders to barflies, have beon
saying that Jimmy Hlnes was doli.g
precisely what he Is now under In
dictment for doing. Nevertheless,
(Continued ou Page Ten.)
With fire conditions remaining ex
tremely hazardous, Chief Roy Elliott
today reminded the public that
burning permits were not being Is
sued for the present and that tht
burning of trash and rubbish in We
open or In Incinerators was prohib
ited. Persons setting clean-up fires
during the prohibited period axe lia
ble to prosecution.
"We are doing our best to prevent
fires and we ask the continued co
operation of ihe public." the chief
said. "We feel confident We people
win continue to give us their help."
A man from the department, he ad
ded, will patrol the city as a guard
against clean-up fires.

out of control today. The fire, mostly In brush and scrub growth, cov
ered 5,000 acres and was sprendlnir toward Butte Falls. The community
was about six miles by airline from the blaze this afternoon.
The state fire warden's office here -
said that no ranches were In lmme-
i dlate- danger. Nevertheless farmers
In the locality were repoited to be
! nervous and many of theiri had set
backfires In an effort to check the
main blaze.
Backfire Add To Peril
Instead of helping, however, the
backfires added to the original blaze
and made the task of control much
more difficult, the warden's office
said.
While appreciating the cooperative
Intent of the farmers, the warden's
office asked that they make no effort
to fight the fire excepting under the
advice of trained forestry personnel.
Butt Falls Itself was being covered
with ashes and cinders from the fire.
Cinders were falling as far as Mount
Pitt, a distance of 30 miles. The
Nlon Tucker summer lodge, Ro?ue
Roost, on the Rogue river near Trail
was under a shower of ashes.
Pumper Aids
Thirty trained state firefighters
equipped with a pumper were bat

blaze could be checked this afternoon
with proper backfires, the warden's
office stated. The backfires were
started this afternoon.
The fire brought visibility in the
Butte Falls district to a low point
and lookouts were handicapped In
their vigilance.

JAPAN READY TO
TAKE ON RUSSIA,
Official Spokesman of For
eign Office Gives Varying
Statements On Dispute
Over Siberian Border
" TOKYO, July 22. (AP) Tokyo
newspapers tonight quoted an un
named foreign office spokesman as
declaring that Japan "is ready and
has every right to take all necessary
steps" toward Soviet Russia in their
conflict over a disputed area on the
Manchoukuo-Slbcrian border.
Previously the official spokesman
of the foreign office, Tatsuo Kawal,
had Indicated to foreign correspon
dents Japan had no Intention of
forcing the Issue with Moscow, had
dented any threat by Japan to use
force and said withdrawal of Russian
troops had been merely proposed as
a preliminary to a "general compro
mise." Challenge Seen
To the Japanese pres the spokes
man was reported to have said that
"Russia's action piust be Interpreted
as a challenge to Japan" and that
Moscow must assume responsibility
for the results of the Changkufeng
incident Soviet troops' occupation
July 11 of a border area Japan asserts
Is Manchoukuo territory.
The Japanese press continued to
carry accounts of movements of Rus
sian naval and army forces near the
Changkufeng area, which Is south
west of Vladivostok and near the
point where Siberia, Korea and Man
choukuo come together.
Dome!, the Japanese news agency,
reported five Soviet destroyers hod
entered Posslet bay, which although
practically enclontcl by Russian1 terri
tory is near the troubled Changku
feng area. The Tokyo newspaper
Asa hi said 30,000 Soviet troops hod
been moved close to the area.
(Estimates of Russian forces In the
Far East range from 300.000 to 000,000
men. Japan Is believed to have some
250,000 of her best troops in Man
choukuo, over which she has assumed
military protection.
- Moscow Confident
Informed persons said Japanese
army leaders believed that Moscow
was confident that because Japan
was so deeply Involved fh the Chinese
war she would have to yield to Russia
in the present conflict.
Moscow already has reJcAed vigor
ously Japanese protests and demands
that the Russian troops withdraw
from Changkufeng.
These sources said a whole "red
division" was rushed to the borders
of Suiyuan province In April when
the news Of the Japanese defeat at
Talerhchwang, In Shantung province,
reached Siberia.
Suiyuan Is a province of Inner
Mongolia occupied by Japan and Is
adjacent to outer Mongolia, Soviet
protectorate.
The same sources said Russia was
ready then to attack Japan in the
belief that the tide of the China war
had turned against her. Tills they
said they had on the authority of a
Soviet officer who had deserted. How
ever, when later the Japanese armies
advanced again and took Suchow the
Russian attack plans were postponed.

REPUBLIC STEEL
Charge Flung at Senate
Civil Liberties Committee
Hearing Reprehensible
Tactics Charged to Co.
WASHINGTON1, July 22. (AP)
Philip Murray, chairman of the
steel workers organizing committee.
charged today that the- Republic
Steel corporation Is "tho filthiest In
dustrial cesspool of labor relations
in America."
The gray, partly bald steel union
leader made his carefully worded
charge In testimony before the sen
ate civil liberties committee Investi
gating the "little stool" strike of
1D37.
Murray charged that the Republic
firm, previously mentioned In tes
timony as having aided tn financing
the activities of citizens organlza- .
tlons opposing CIO activities, domi
nated groups fighting the 8WOC.
"The Republic Steel corporation,"
Murray charged,- "created, maintain
ed, dominated and financed every
known kind of agency that could be
created to prevent the organization
of steel workers Into unions.
'I know of no single corporation
In the United States that has re
sorted to the use of more reprehen
sible tactics against unionization."
It Is generally known that this
corporation as far as labor relations
are concerned, Is the filthiest Indus
trial cesspool of labor relations In
America.
Murray said he thought the SWOO
had "revolutionized" the status of
tho steel workers and eventually
would win thlr "comploto economic
freedom. ': V ' " '
"Wa virtually destroyed the politi
cal and economic combination of
these (steel ) companies,' he said,
"and have given to the workers the
right to exercise their franchise, the
right to vote for whom they please
and the right to attend the kind
of meetings they want to attend."
