DEWEY 10 MAKE DIRECT ATTACK Speech at Portland Tonight Will Center On "Is There an Indispensable Man?" Aboard Dewey Campaign Train, Sept. 19 (U.R) Gov. Thomas E. Djwey makes his sec ond campaign speech from the west coast tonight with a direct attack on President Roosevelt's fourth term bid, a followup to last night's address at Seattle when he appealed to American labor to desert the present ad ministration. Dewey's theme In tonight's address, which will be delivered from Portland, Ore., will be "Is There An Indispensable Man?" Strike Blame Placed The Republican GOP nominee told a nation-wide radio audience last night that the Roosevelt ad ministration was responsible for wartime strikes and said it seeks to make labor a political pawn. Speaking before an overflow crowd of more than 6,000 per sons in Seattle's civic auditor ium, Dewey outlined a five-point program he would Inaugurate If his white house bid is success ful. They were: 1 An able secretary of labor from the ranks of labor: 2 Return to the labor depart ment all the functions of such department; 3 Abolition of "wasteful competing bureaus filled with men quarrelling for jurisdic tion;" 4 Establishment of a fair em ployment practice committee as a permanent government func tion: 5 Abolition of "privilege for one group over any other. Strike Right Defended Dewey defended the right to strike as "one of the fundamen tal rights of free men," but he charged that it has been abused and the blame for such abuse lay directly with the Roosevelt administration. "The new deal Is exclusive ly responsible for most of the serious wartime strikes, he said "The chief blame goes direct ly Into the white house and to its agency created at the top of all this chaos of agencies the war labor board. "That boa-d has supreme pow er over the vital matters of wages and conditions of employ ment. Whether by design or sheer incompetence, its practice has been to stall weeks, months, sometimes years before issuing decisions." Dewey read political Implica tions into the delay. "This policy of delay, delay fell J&Sja vim- 'ws. My Mother and Saturday Nights made me what I am today. . , IT'S A DAMP WORLD as far as Slim Davis is concerned. Although Slim claims his mother is thecauseof it all.., by making him soap not once, but thrice, each Saturday night ...the fact it Slim is a very patient painstaking man. So a Gilmore Independent Dealer has him washing cars. Nothing else. And Slim, through the years, has become just about the best car w ashing specialist on the continent according to his boss. Try getting all of your cat service from a Gilmore Dealer ...you'll be surprised how an experienced man really knows how to make your car look better, run better, last longer.

It makes political loyalty the test of a man getting his rights. . . . Great Gesture Aim This strategy of delay sets the stage for a great gesture a big favor to labor before elec tion day a gesture carefully designed to make labor believe that something it is justly en titled to is a special gift from on high from the new deal." Dewey said he would "refuse to believe that workers in this country will play the role of supplicants to any throne." T do believe," he continued, of the Prospect home extension unit will be in the high school building, beginning at 10:30 a. m., Sept. 29.

She states that the British people are very friendly, and the country beautiful. Ralph Mallory sustained "the American people when they j badly cut finger while working go into the secrecy of the vot ing booth will insist on govern ment by law and not by special favor and political extortion." Dewey summed up his estima tion of the Roosevelt administra tion's labor policy as one of "de lays, bungling and incompe tence," which has bred class di vision, hate and insecurity, plac ed obstacles in the way of la bor s efforts to avoid wartime strikes, and fostered strife among labor groups as well as between labor and business.
