FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, S.pt. IS, 1944 DEWEY CHARGES OF L Billings, Mont., Sept. 15 (U.R) Gov Thomas E. Dewev sum marizing the result of confer ences with western cattlemen and agricultural experts on his presidential camoaign tour, said today it would appear that the federal government "has gone too far" in stockpiling tor war needs. Dewey told a press conference that western woolgrowers have Informed him there is a wool irtockpile In this country now adequate to nearly foul years normal pear-etime consumption. It includes a government gtockpile of 1,300 OU'i.OOU pounds and British holdings In this country of 600 000,000 pounds, he said comparing It w'th nor mal peacetime consumption of 600,000 000 a ypar and a war time consumption of approxi mately 1,000,000 000 pounds a year. Dewey said the western wool growers were concerned about the disposal of the Rovt-rnmenl stockpile, as well as 600 000 000 pounds of British owned wool in this country which they report ed also is being sold on the American market. "They take the position that It (the stockpile) will have to be dribbled out over a period of years, or else it will put the sheep Industry out of business," Dewey said. WAR CASUALTY Hollywood, Sept. 15 U.B Film Actress Ann Dvorak, and her director husband, Leslie Fenton, who gave up their ca reers to help in England during the blitz, today disclosed they have separated. "Our marriage can be classed as a war casual ty," Miss Dvorak said. "Our un- happiness started in England while we were working on the war effort there." FROM BAD COLD Washington, Sept. 15, (U.R) Gen. John J. Pershing is con fined to his bed at Walter Reed hospital with a cold which was aggravated, according to his friends, by over-exertion on his 84th birthday Wednesday. The general was suffering from a cold before his birthday, but did not let It prevent him from seeing callers and well wishers 'on Wednesday. Afterward, however, his cold became worse, and friends said he was expected to be in bed for several days as a precau tionary measure. They said there was nothing alarming aDom nio condition.

He said the board hoped to reach its conclusions during the week of Oct. B 'before elec tion." He said, however, that any changed wuge stabilization pol icy might "be quite different from the one demanded.'1 In the case of the United Steel Workers of America (CIO), he said, the union demands increased paid vacations, shift differentials, time and one-half for overtime and other issues which could be granted under the existing pol icy.
